Does anyone else around here find it weird that a bunch of grown men let their emotions be impacted by the ups and downs of the decision making process of 17 and 18 year old kids? No way in hell Im going to kiss some 17 year old kids a** to try and get him to come to ND. Our coaches get paid big bucks to do that. If Darby comes to ND, cool. If he doesnt, cool somebody else will, and we will win with the kids who want to be here. If we had a QB this year we are easily a top 10 and maybe even top 5 team. We've got our QB now. BK will bring in enough talent to get this program where he wants it on a consistent basis. If Darby is headed to FSU or Auburn I dont see how it matters what the reason is...I say "good riddance, see you in a BCS bowl someday if you're school makes it". Anything more than that, I'll leave up to the coaching staff.

Your a genious.

So then you're a member?

Good.

Wait: you're a grown man that doesn't follow that crap.

Poseur.

Yes Im a member. I like to know whats going on, and talk ND football, but fail to understand how that is any indictment on whether my emotions are involved in these kids. Im a member of this board too, but you're not going to find me stepping out on a ledge if every member of our class decommitted at once tomorrow morning.
I sleep with women too, doesnt mean my emotions are involved with them when I do. I fail to understand your point.

TWIW ESPN had a video posted earlier that had us in his top three. It was on their main college fb page.

Im not saying this board in particular. Im saying it is just flat our weird that a grown man would allow his emotions to be dictated by life decisions a 17 year old boy he has never met and has no relation with.

I am only speaking for myself, but I am emotionally bothered by Darby's choice (wherever he ends up). I also feel this is a very good class, and will provide quality depth for years to come. The negative feelings are no different for me than when the Irish lose a game they should have won. The Irish had his verbal and now do not. It is perfectly normal for fans to be upset about losing an Elite talent that you once felt was Irish. The world is not ending, and the Irish will be fine, but to pretend none of us care about losing Darb sauce is a little naive.

I think Johnny essentially means, "good for you, don't bust on people that get involved with recruiting"

Or maybe that's what I mean... Oh lawd I'm not sure :)

I fail to understand your point.

So, you are a man of true logic.

There is no emotion in or investment in the recruits at all?

NSD is a day set aside for the last few decades for only the ignorant and obsessed?

Cool.

Sign me up.

BTW: kudos on the sleeping with women thing. I was unsure of where your logic may have you in the "mommy-daddy button" arena...

Dude.

You're reading his "recruiting thread" and posting here.

Are you self-diagnosing?

Lmao!

Like I said in another post just now...I follow information. I dont get highs and lows over it. I take it you do based on the defensive position you've taken. I'm sure there are many here who share those feelings with you. I was simply asking if Im the only who finds it weird. Here, take this olive branch.

Didn't Darby stop answering calls and went "underground" and is not talking to recruiting people? I have a feeling that asshat Mike Farrell is running with something to be the first to report it instead of doing due dilligence and waiting to confirm with the kid himself.

Can you just clear up this whole surprise thing?? I'm not asking you to give the name but just to clarify what your original info was.

Do you KNOW that ND will have a surprise recruit on NSD or are you just predicting it?

Hence why I don't trust him. Once Sapp or Wiltfong says it, I will be dissapointed. But I think Darby is coming here.

Ehh, won't think anything is official until after signing day. After that Armstead, Greenberry, Sheppard crap, I will not count us out.

We need this guy, Kelly needs to step up and get it done.

Kelly did step up... And Darby "took his talents" to the Westminster's Dog Show. This isn't on Kelly or the coaching staff. This is about Fido finding the sexiest, blinged out program for him. If this decision had anything to do with education, he'd still be committed to ND...make no mistake about it.

I am expecting during his announcement, he rips off his mask. Then Omar Hunter comes pouring out of him.... "OLD MAN HUNTER" I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for you darn IE kids!

The only difference is that the IE kids had nothing to do with this deed... Better call in the Globetrotters to investigate further. ;)
