'15 NV TE Aliz'e Mack (Notre Dame Signed NLI)

[Domina Nostra]

I thought that he wanted to lose weight because he bulked up too much for blocking purposes last year and wasn't as agile as he wanted to be.

I've heard this too.

One way to reconcile the data is to say that he's backed off the more aggressive weight-gain curve. Some people can play at a higher weight if they have time to grow into it.

So if he was 220 on NSD in 2014, he may have projected to be 240 in 2015, and 250 in 2016, and 260 in 2017.

Now maybe they are thinking a better path would have been low 230s in 2015, low 240s in 2015, and level out in the around 245.

I just want to see him running seam routes all game long

 

[NDty9]

How have I not seen a "Fire Longo" post yet????

 

[ND Fan Vancouver]

AJ tweeted a photo today of him standing on a scale at 244.1 lbs. seems like a damned good weight

Well dang

 

[woolybug25]

Son of a bitch.

At least he is determined to work his way back. That response shows a lot of class. See you in '17 Alize.

 

[Ironman8]

That's a hell of a mature statement at least. Really hope he does learn from it and comes back with a vengeance in 2017.

 

[TheChosen1]

You know I almost bumped his thread a while back because of his recent tweets but I didn't want to scare people. I even asked Sampson about it and he didn't hear much. Sucks.

 

[woolybug25]

I take it he can take a redshirt?

Not only that, I could've sworn that BK announced in one of his last media appearances that everyone's academics were in order.

Matt Freeman from ISD was the only guy to have it early.

Apparently there was an appeal process that wasn't concluded.

You get 5 years to play your 4 years of football so essentially yes you can look at this as a RS season.

 

[TheChosen1]

Apparently.

If you read his old tweets you could see something was up.

 

[Domina Nostra]

Sucks. This is why I don't bother buying the pre-season magazines.

"With Alize Jones at the W, ND should..."

He's not playing 4 years for the Irish, he's just not.

 

[IrishLax]

Matt Freeman from ISD was the only guy to have it early.

To elaborate, ISD had the information for over two weeks and sat on it while he concluded the grade appeal process.

 

[dwshade]

Since they were planning to use him mostly outside this year then St. Brown and Boykin will get their opportunity to show what they can do.

That's responsible journalism right there. Cheers to those guys.

Didn't say he was, just answering the question.

 

[woolybug25]

Can I borrow your time machine? I can't wait until next year for the next season of GoT.

 

[NDRock]

I'm sitting here at work next to my buddy who follows the Gators closely. I asked him how many returning starters get suspended every year for grades. He just started laughing.

Sometimes following ND football sucks.

 

[Luckylucci]

Yea, so even when we get a stud, 3 year and done guy, we get 2 years of production from him, lol.

Kudos to ISD for the handling of this. Loy should take some notes, ha.

Isn't that the truth, you just don't see this happening at other schools at least not nearly as much as at ND.
