2025 Fall Practice Thread

[IrishWayDomer]

I don't trust trust *a guy* I've never heard of, but for On3 to put this out there considering where they are at building their brand/rep, I'd be lying if I didn't wonder if they had some reason for confidence.

 

[arrowryan]

I didn’t see Nakos at practice yesterday.

Unless they are rotating Carr and Minchey in with the 1’s for entire practices and I just happened to be at a Carr practice.

They’re two weeks out. I can’t imagine they’d still be rotating.

 

[NDFAN2008]

Please don’t take the 60% as fact. It very easily could’ve been 55%. I’m just glad that he isn’t afraid to sling it. It’s not fun watching them try to dink and dunk.

60% against our DB's is equal to 70-72% against majority of teams on our schedule I'll take that.

Plus we got Merck whose the top insider and knows his shit saying it's Carr

 

[AKRowdy]

Didn’t read the article but I bet he’s just saying this stuff based off of reading message boards.

 

[dublinirish]

Perfect opportunity to start a Twitter beef between IE and Nakos lads. Gotta build our brand now that we are the defacto top dogs on the ND beat

 

[notredomer23]

On3’s whole MO is “what will generate the most clicks without being technically wrong if we’re wrong”.

What if the entire first string has been outplayed by the second string in camp?

 

[IrishLion]

No info, but wouldn't be shocked if that's intentional misdirection coming from the Gug. Don't know if Nakos is being misled, if he's taking a shot in the dark, or if he's tight enough with someone at ND to put it out there knowing it's not accurate just to help out.

Between my source, Merck, and @arrowryan actually seeing a full practice that featured no QB rotation between units... seems like Nakos is getting different scoop than others that are regularly following the program.

Also could just be a reaction to yesterday's "noise" about Minchey being out front.

 

[NDVirginia19]

His source? Arrowryan

A misdirection from the Gug was my thought as well

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

I think Nakos may know the truth and doesn't care because #clicks

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Pete Nakos reporting that Minchey has the edge FWIW

Pete Davidson reporting Blake Hebert has the lead.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

So I have 247
A poster there copy/pasted Lion and ArrowRyan
Should we flag them? lol

Imagine paying for a subscription only to copy and paste free information lol

 

[arrowryan]

Dang we made it guys.

 

[NotKoon]

O'Malley and Brice are claiming they both got texts while filming the pod confirming an even split last night lol

 

[dublinirish]

we need a proper disinformation campaign going to combat this

 

[dublinirish]

meant to ask Arrow did he notice any of the beat guys there? I know the II guys and Sampson got into the high school field practices before

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Did they claim it was their info? If so, drop a screenshot of ArrowRyan’s post and tell them to GFY

They quoted Lion (and Lions source) and ArrowRyan - and sourced Irish Envy

hope our servers can handle all these rich lurkers coming our way

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Do I trust Arrow? Do I trust II sources? hmm

 

[arrowryan]

I guess I need to defend myself, since my report spread like wildfire and appears to be trying to get shot down on a podcast.

When it was 11v11, Carr and Minchey never singularly subbed for each other. When Carr went in, he went in with 10 other players. Those players included Price, Raridon, Knapp, Wagner, Greathouse, and Fields. When Minchey went in, he also went in with 10 other players. Those players included Aneyas Williams, Ty Washington, Micah Gilbert, and others.

I’m not an insider, nor do I pretend to be. I’m just reporting what I see. I saw Carr with the 1’s and Minchey with the 2’s.

Wow, so you're reporting Jeremiyah Love is injured?

 

[IrishLion]

I'm not an insider either, I just have a good source that Merck happens to be familiar with and approves of... and we know Merck is on the money when he's got the goods.

When I get info, I share it, but I don't have unlimited access to this person lol

No need to mention names, but how do you get to check out practice?

Beat reporters when their livelihood is threatened by a free message board that has better info than them:

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Brice sources saying that Minchey had the best night.....
Who do I believe???

tinfoil hat time:

They are literally just trying to contradict IE's insider sources. No italics.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

@IrishLax can we start getting IE merchandise?

I want an Irish Envy #bodsquad shirt
