Just thought I'd help. Not bad at all though.

Seems just a little rushed to be the first video to include all the clips from the Irish Connection video.

I like the idea of the beginning of the video, but honestly it just makes me sad rather than pump me up.

I thought that video came out last year...

Made me want to slit my wrists about the first 2 minutes and only got slighty better from there.

Not a fan of this one.

A common theme of most pump-up videos is music that 1) pumps you up 2) syncs, at least slightly, with the highlights 3) doesn't start with that 2 minute piece of garbage ESPN threw up last year.

If I was doing it, I'd cut the beginning clip to ~ 30 seconds, CHANGE THE MUSIC (yes, it's Irish, but it sounds a bit foolish) and sync up the clips in premiere to make it actually fun to watch/listen to at the same time.

Sorry if the creator is on this site or if I offended anyone, I used to make AMVs back in the day and still make quite a few power hour compilations. I've also probably watched more pumpup videos than the average (football) family of four.

I actually enjoyed the beginning and I especially enjoyed coach Kelly's pump up talks. I wasn't a huge fan of the music later in the video, though.

I'm sure you've all seen it... but this is the video that I played in my dorm room every morning before games-

Here Comes The Irish - YouTube

Here come the Irish.

Maybe I have lower standards than most or am just that starved for football season.

i may be in the tiny minority here, but I dont dislike the ESPN bit at the beginning. It's harsh, for sure, but it's not like it's false. I think it's well-written and it has some nice shots of Notre Dame. I don't like the message, but it's a true message. Now it's up to Brian Kelly and the D-Boys to make that change.

Also, the overall video was eh. I've seen better.

I do love Flogging Molly though

I agree with you TT. I think the first part of this is ESPN's video from last year with the last part updated using last season's and this year's practice videos.

 

[Old Man Mike]

Only thing that I thought was really interesting about this video is the rather astounding Rock Star status already achieved by Aaron Lynch. I'll admit that ever since day one my jaw has dropped watching his freak talent. But still... not having yet played a play. I retain the feeling that both he and Tuitt are going to be legends before they're done, and that everything about him says "I am going to beat you like a drum", but I'm still surprised at featuring him so strongly so soon.

 

[GreatGolson]

i thought it was the long awaited "Part 2" to ESPNs hackjob...

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Not bad... But not nearly as good as the other one posted this week. Just a humble Irish Fan's opinion.

 

[rikkitikki08]

The first 2 minutes were a bitch slap filled with truth......i like my videos less preachy and more football related. But fair enough if any one digs it

 

[irishtrinity]

that video has no truth... this means more to some than others they said the same thing before Holtz got here... they were proved wrong... why does every other school that hasn't ever won one national title just give up? they act live 88 was in the golden yrs.. ND is stronger than ever and travel and see all the new construction around south bend Touchdown Jesus is always going to be throwing those hands up for ND touchdowns...
