If Tuihalamaka is clear about transferring, doesn't that say that he and the staff think that we are REAL GOOD at DE?

Seems that I should be delighted to hear that we so good there we can't offer him.

OMM bang on here. Matt Freeman at ISD was implying that Tuihalamaka would be getting only a handful of snaps per game this season.

This seems a good way of looking at it.
Given the timing involved, his relative value to us would be significantly higher than to almost any other team - where he'd have to walk in two weeks before the season, compete for a spot and learn a system from scratch - so if we're willing to pass on such a proven commodity, we probably have options we like even better. I'll be curious to see where he lands. The short notice will make it hard.

I think it's more that he wants a place where he thinks he can start.

I literally do not understand how we got to the point as a country where judges issue "temporary" restraining orders that are de facto federal legislation. "Open the portal for a week" ... lol what? Why a week? Why not forever? Why not three days? One random guy in Louisiana just making shit up as he sees fit.

Where is the limit on the madness? What stops a judge from ruling a team must be included in the playoffs? Or that ND can sign Riley Leonard back from the Colts midseason if Carr gets hurt? And on and on. The "relief" being granted seems to have no limits.

Kinda crazy in essence because this bypasses the elected legislative process, allowing unelected judiciary members to rewrite or freeze national status quos based basically on the claims of a "sole" or a few plaintiffs.

This is why I hate when people do lazy argument of blaming NCAA. They’ve been neutered by the courts for years now. Without legislation, it’s essentially been decided that football can’t be thought of differently than any extracurricular when it comes to enrollment enforcing.

Oh, I'm sorry, who made this fuckin mess? Me? American tax payers?

Or the gd schools themselves, i.e., the members of the NCAA?

Schools have treated interscholastic sports as a cash cow, literally, since their inception back in 18 dickety doo and, for 120 years, the NCAA has been nothing but a vehicle for schools and admins to profit off the backs of student athletes, who most often haven't even received a quality education in return. Literally, everything that people bitch about is the fault of the NCAA and its member schools who did those things to chase a dollar.

So, pardon me if I don't give one fuck that the NCAA members are sad that exploitation has a price tag, now.

Congress has better things to do than placate fans who whine that football players have agency.

Marbury vs. Madison happened a long time ago fella.

Yes it did but that's kinda different the NCAA ruling involves preliminary injunctions and rulings issued by federal district judges, Marbury v Madison dealt with the limits of the U.S. Supreme Court’s original jurisdiction under Article III of the Constitution.

Lol, oh you want to be technical about it?

TRO's aren't making new laws so wtf are you talking about when you say "bypassing the legislative process"? It's not like TROs are executive orders or permanent.

Not technical just stating the facts and WTF I'm talking about is when the NCAA adopted the "five-for-five" eligibility model it was done through it's governance structure rather than a traditional lengthy legislative vote, therefore bypassing the legislative process.

No heavy lifting

Are you saying that any group who sets their own rules through their own “governance structure rather than a tradition lengthy legislative vote” is “bypassing the legislative process”?

Regardless of Junior's specific value to Notre Dame's DL, Freeman is correct here.

Taking guys who haven't been in a high-level college S&C program or practice since January (or Thanksgiving in this case) and trying to plug them into your team two weeks before the season starts is going to be rough for all involved, including other players on the team who they might displace. Almost by definition, these guys aren't THAT good, otherwise they'd be securely in the NF. And, yeah, if you think the school part matters, it also sort of makes a joke out of admissions.

That said, I'm sure other schools will take these guys Will be curious to see how they perform. It might be mid-season before some of them are fully up to speed.
