damn it! I thought I was the first to coin this term. I need the internet sleuths to find out who gets credit for being first with the "Peanut Butter Angeli Time" moniker.

edit - Looks like it was Calabrese's People who coined this in 2022 on this board. kudos to them.
I didn't remember the first but I have used it. Too awesome to pass up

Prediction. Leonard commits, Angeli balls out in the bowl game, Angeli transfers, Leonard has a Hartman-esque good-enough year. We all complain. Rinse, repeat with Minchey.

This is the ND way.
I don't see LEO committing at this point. His mother was right about him.

I do feel a bit bad for Steve, hope he balls out in the bowl. I hope taking 3 transfers in 4 years doesn't scare Carr away either. It's a bit of a worrying trend that I'm sure other schools will start to exploit to negatively recruit us.

It’s just tough timing with Steve. Coaching staff has their jobs on the line this year. Need to walk into A&M with as much experience as possible

Not like Notre Dame isn't the only one participating in the trend.

Of all the concerns in my consumption of sports, this isn't one of them.

Who is going to neg recruit us? They're all doing it.
How many other big time programs have taken 3 grad students in the last 4 years though? If I'm Carr I'm starting to wonder if I'll get an opportunity, and I'm sure other recruiters will get in our recruits' heads.

Meh - the only neg recruiting that should be going on is towards Brian Kelly for putting ND in the position where they had to get transfers until the QB room gets built up. This is a non-issue.

If I’m Carr I think it’s a good sign ND is taking a transfer for next year. Shows they’re not sold on the guys he’ll be competing with (Angeli, Minchey).

LOL! You can’t fix Tommy boy’s QB room overnight.

Gotta do this until his ineptness is fixed.

When Carr and Knight are ready this won’t be necessary anymore.

The future is bright!!!

The inept guy that just broke Georgia's 29 game win streak and is coaching in the playoff?

Counter Argument:

He plays well because Oregon State was already less talented, but lost all of its comparable players, gets a good game on tape and tricks some school into taking him in the portal and we can be free from Tommy Rees’ curse once and for all.
I personally don't give a fuck other than ND winning the game .... a fluke, refs calls or whatever! I just want a fuckin' bowl WIN!!!

We are nearing the point where people will only want to look at the W-L record for the season excluding the bowl games.

With the exception of the CFP, the teams that are playing in the bowl games are not even remotely close to the teams that competed in the regular season. Rosters gutted from people sitting out to prepare for the draft and from the transfer portal.

Portal is probably a bigger problem than the draft, TBH.

I'm not sure why they have the portal window open before the bowl games. It's the most unstable time of year for rosters, between coaching turnover and NFL decisions that might impact future playing time for some guys. And starting next year you'll have 12 teams in the CFP - those guys mostly aren't going to want to transfer out while they're still playing, but some will feel pressure to to secure a good landing spot.

I guess the academic calendar is a consideration (ha!) but I wonder if they could just push the portal window to start Jan. 1 or something.
