Re: Spring football: As most, I'm extremely interested in how the D looks and believe that it'd be false excitement if BVG was pleased with the overall D. Also glad that he's checking out all the groups on D. Really excited to see what BVG brings (Cpt. Obvious I know).

Thank you. And it is not "guys," just one in particular....

No, it is most certainly "guys". The Koon was a big part of all that but so were all the responses. This is including everyone who didn't respond directly to Kuehnja but rather just posted something about the thread being off-topic and started having off-topic conversations of their own. Not all 61 posts were by The Koon.

:laugh: Not really mad at anyone, but let's stay on topic. And yes, enough with the thank yous. I don't need them.

CondomnSuck and I are going to the ND/Michigan game this year (don't judge him for hanging with kuehnja, he's a good guy, lol). And talked about being at this game. Ending sucked, but one of my favorite moments is the entrance, and I can't wait to see a version of this against at the Michigan game.

I dare you to watch this and NOT do 100 pushups in the next 8 seconds... one handed... on a bed of nails.

I love Manti Teo. And fuck Michigan.

Sorry.

I try to delete your posts before you can get the reps.

Do you actually lose rep credits when posts are deleted? I didn't know that. Most of my reps come from deleted posts, lol.

Currently, my rep received is just over 345,000, and my rep power is just over 3,700. Trying to build up my 'red power' in case I ever have to use it on a jabroni.

Absolutely epic! Ty for sharing mate. Totally gets your blood going! Jeez...I miss Manti. We need you Jaylon!
I wonder what happened to the camera dude at the end there....didn't look too good for him.

I forgot how many bad calls were made in the first half, a Miami's knee down before their reaching first touchdown, and that fumble of Chudzinski's that was ruled a no catch when retaining possession led to the tying touchdown. Johnson crying about a call in the second half? High-hat bull shit; asswipe was used to every one kowtowing to him!

Thanks for the Saturday chuckle!

Two things...

1. According to DD, we have quite a bit of AA's on the team

2. Who are the back up QB's and will one of them see significant time in the spring game? I mean, Kizer may be far from ready and Golson could go down in game 1. You just never know. That would leave Malik and ???

You're joking, right? Tommy reportedly got a medical RS and that's why he's at practices. It's almost a done deal that he'll be back.





















JK. I hope this threw at least one poster who's been out of the loop into a panic attack.

I was about to ask where are the italics...

Are you kidding me? I'm in the loop (kinda) but reading that on tapatalk I was wondering if I had missed something...

Eh, doesn't do anything for me, but it's tainted because I know it's the 2011 USC game and we probably coulda/shoulda won that one.

Is it just me or does ND do better against the "better" teams on the schedule when the game is not a night game?

Yeah its because Easter falls on April 20th which somehow screws up the scheduling. Earliest start ND has had to Spring practice since Jack Nolan has been there.

Kelly just said that he didn't want to "crowd" all fifteen practices between getting back from spring break and Easter.

Three of four losses last year were at night. They did beat USC and ASU at night and the defense played great in both games. I'm not sure it matters, but I hate playing less talented teams at night, i.e., Pitt last year.

I'm not sure the night rule is always in effect, but there certainly could be something said for a number of less talented teams at night. Pitt always plays us tough, and that often ends up as a late game when it's in Pittsburgh. Boston College has played us close in late games. Purdue certainly qualifies, although they can play spoiler in an afternoon game as well. I do think other teams get motivated for prime time games, while to us it's just another contest perhaps.

Makes sense. I personally like it better, makes it seem longer and fills more offseason time ;) plus, I think for the team, it gives them more space for reflection, film and improvement.
