2012 Fall Camp Thread

[peoriairish]

They're coaching in those???

Can't say either way. The tweet said, players are getting snapbacks... coaches get these. Or something along those lines.

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

Prob just S.W.A.G.

But I wouldn't be opposed to seeing Diaco running up and down the sidelines in one.

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

That gif is incredible ^^^^^

Fact. My wife posted it on Facebook it was that good.

When you really watch and think about what he did you realize how ****ing awesome it was and that he got away with it.. I don't remember a flag being thrown.. and even if one was, it was still epic.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Does anyone know what coaches will be where this season? I think Kelly said Martin would be in the booth, who else will be where?

 

[eNDzone]

I have been wondering all along if Diaco would be on the sideline. His energy would be great down there.

another question i have related to next week: what's the team's agenda for after the game? will they board a plane asap and head out to get home??

i'm a little worried about a hangover/jet lag feel for next week against purdue. imo the sooner they get home the better.

Don't know the agenda but I do know about traveling back and forth from NY to Ireland. When I was a teenager we'd fly over every summer to visit family. The jet lag only affected me for one to two days max.

These guys are young, healthy and plenty active. They will prob get back ASAP and have no problem catching sleep.. I don't see why 18-21 yr old athletes would have a problem bouncing back.

i read on one of the SBT pages (I think it was dealing with what the equipment manager is going through) that they have a flight back 60 minutes after the game. So it sounds like a really quick turn around.

Plus it is the home opener against Purdue. If you can't get jacked for that then sit your a$$ on the pine!

excellent...thanks dudes

If they're on a charter flight leaving Dublin an hour after the game, they'll be home in time to hit a party Saturday night. Really doesn't seem like jet lag should be that big a deal here.

I wouldn't want to see Diaco's magnificent mane obscured by a hat.

We better not get a repeat of that bizarre outing against South Florida...

Yea really.. They should be foaming and ravenous.

 

[Rhode Irish]

I'll worry about Purdue next week. (OK, "worry" may be overstating it.)

Lets deal with Navy first.

I heard the NCAA is forcing Diaco to coach up in the box due to his mane causing distraction for opposing teams, coaches and fans.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Sounds legit, sounds newsworthy . . .

It wasn't St. Patrick who got rid of the snakes in Ireland it was Diaco's mesmerizing locks. They slithered into the sea knowing he was on his way.

Good read, I was curious about the logistics of the trip.
But who the hell is Matin Teo? lmao

 

[Old Man Mike]

I've flown across the Atlantic a dozen times and the "lag" going over there [i.e. against the time clock] was always worse to adjust to than the almost non-lag coming back. Clock reset for me amounted to nothing but just some extra sleep.

i totally agree. flights to Ireland are always of the red-eye variety so you will arrive there at like 9am and have the whole day to try and stay awake to get your sleep schedule back to GMT time

Well, according to the SportsNation poll they just showed, 60% of the nation thinks we get less than 7 wins this year. Time to stun the nation!

idiots.

i had been wondering the same thing. I do logistic work here in the Air Force, doing something like this for ND would be a dream come true.

Bump.

In an effort to try and compare what we see in the short preseason clips to what actually comes to fruition during the season, I started looking back through last year's fall camp thread. Some of it is quite funny (Chris Salvi starting against Navy, freaking out over no Cierre Wood sightings), and some is sad (Davante Neal gone), while still other thoughts are spot on. All in all, I think it helps temper expectations or rather adjust them a little to be more realistic. I was also looking for a comparison between the 2 teams as well. Interested to see what everyone thinks of the comparisons.
