Should be good now.
Can one of the Mods bump him up to the commit portion of this page? It is giving me anxiety.
I guess it could be the coffee and Copenhagen before Bfast, but still, its not helping.
Dad, is that you...?? Don't tell me you're drinking Miller Lite for lunch too because then I'd really start to wonder.![]()

Oh I thought y'all meant the sidebar
Wait...I am confused....I thought Coffee and Copenhagen was breakfast. In fact, the breakfast of champions
Loy says yes we will.
I like Diggs. Cool name. Good looking kid. Solid highlights. Love the agility. I guess things are slow in here but the response to his verbal indicates people aren't that excited which I don't understand. I think we should be at least as optimistic as we were with Kyren Williams commitment.
Apparently Diggs is playing behind a pretty weak OL at Archbishop Rummel. I have no basis for that other than other people have made that claim. So, his production is not all that impressive for a HS running back going on to play at a school like ND.
With Kyren, he put up some absolutely absurd HS stats. Every game, just video game numbers. Diggs could obviously have been putting up amazing numbers if he was at Vianney too, but maybe that explains some of the lack of excitement.
“That’s a 69-yard pitch and catch. Nice.”
Yea, I get trying to protect kids, but if I had to guess, meeting with recruits on a one-on-one basis would be pretty safe and seems necessary to allow these kids to pick the right place for them.
They should simply create a manageable, lessened-contact period. Just official visits, no more than so many kids, masks 24/7, etc.
And who does it really hurt? People that can't afford to take their whole family across country to check it out. Folks who can afford it can still do it to some degree.
I honestly get where the kid is going with this but Covid is just another reason why kids should be considering the school that will prepare them for the best academic opportunity and not football. I mean, what if it got worse and there was NO football in 2021? That ND degree sure would look better than that MSU or Bama degree on the wall...
While what your saying isn't wrong, I think we need to look a little deeper than that. You can get a fine education almost anywhere, and a football player with a degree from Alabama probably has many MANY doors opened up for him. It isn't so much the diploma that I would compare, but the graduation rates, retention, degrees some players are "forced into" etc.
We all hear about guys at these football factories being there for 5 years and being not even close to finishing their degree and now either have to pay to finish or drop out. That's the bigger issue than just where it's from.
