Chad Bowden to USC

[PNW Irishman]

It’s okay buddy, Merck will be back with his nuggets. He probably just needs some space.

Honestly he was doing everyone a solid by literally fielding every single question—even ones that were redundant or that had been answered 2-3 times already.

Some of y’all came onto the dude the same as proposing 45min into your first date.

Thanks buddy!
I am not too worried about Merck being back or not. His info will be here or on 247 so it really doesn’t matter. I also thought it was hilarious how desperate we all sounded with the million questions.
Was just stating that he was here more than 247 for a couple days. Didn’t realize that statement would ruffle so many feathers

Straight truth

Damn, dude. Prayers for each of them and prayers for you to have the strength to support them all as they fight these battles. That's a lot to have on your shoulders, my guy.

Appreciate it, Mac. Life can hit ya fast, just have a find a way to navigate it.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

Hey man, I was just stating a fact. In absolutely no way was I arguing with you “about something so stupid”. You said he posted on a paid site way more and I said that had not been the case for a short period of time. I’m very sorry that my post upset you so much and you felt like it was argumentative. I’m also very sorry for what you are going through, that is awful and very hard for anyone to deal with. I wish you and your family the best of luck.

My apologies. I didnt mean to take it out on you.

Dude Im not arguing with you about something so stupid. There are more important things in life to get worked up about. This board is a mental break for me and the world I live in. My father is having surgery tomorrow to remove a tumor, my mother found out she has breast cancer, and my youngest just spent the last 3 nights in the hospital for pneumonia.
We are all appreciative of the info he brought.

Damn, sounds like you are really going through it. Chin up, and prayers sent!

 

[GrangerIrish24]

Sorry, everyone. Didn't mean to make that about me. Been a long couple weeks. This is all Bowden's fault. If he wouldn't have "left" the program, we wouldn't even need this thread.

Slap The Sign (not the most reputable ND site) posted this AM that “Loy claims that Watson has decided to stay with the SEC also-ran because he has “unfinished business.” However, it would seem to indicate that he’s getting a nice little payday from Auburn for sticking around.” I am curious to see if once again, a target who spurns ND gets a nice raise in the process

Some people enjoy watching the playoffs from their couches, I guess!

I’m sure he probably did get a pay raise. In today’s college football pretty much all in demand staff (players too now) flirt with outside programs every couple of years even if they have no intention of leaving in order to get a salary bump to the current market price

Multiple people have mentioned him being able to watch his son's high school games as being very important.

The piece was also wondering/speculating if Watson was a bonus hire which I hadn’t considered before; meaning maybe MF was only considering him as a unique and good fit for this position. Do we think this is an established opening and he’s definitely going to fill it with the right hire, or, that MF could move on and hire no one?

Quality comment right here folks.

I appreciate it, my friend.

I just created a thread where everyone could go to ask Merk questions.

Dicks out for Granger!

I’m not sure where we go from here. Do we put them together and say “go team”?

I envision a "high five" going horribly wrong so let's just stick with the Go Team.

Unfortunately I will have to keep mine in my pants... Because... Well... Um...

Yeah except an actual insider with real information joined this free site and posted meaningful insights most people cannot even get on pay sites any more. And rather than revel in the free bounty, a bunch of you would rather post about pizza and other nonsense and annoy the insider with responses directed to him that only 3 other posters find funny. If you want to start a post called “I’m lonely please join me” have at posting whatever you want and 99% of us can make sure we avoid that thread at all costs. Instead in less than 1 week I’ve watched a small handful of people likely drive away the best source of information currently available across any website…because they think it’s funny, and it’s not. Well done.

It’s time my man. Spend that communion money if you want to complain

 

[NDWarrior]

Apparently as an analyst

 

[NDWarrior]

He certainly is getting to work and building his team / making new hires USC, Chad Bowden beefing up personnel department with Logan Snead

 

[RipWheeler]

How dare you post actual news in this thread!? 😂

 

[ColinKSU]

It's cool to see other coaches looking at ND as a place where they can advance their careers.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Bringing on a secondary guy that can develop players. Planning for the future when Coach Mickens inevitably moves on.

Ducks.

Naw Mickens moves to DC eventually I bet Ash isn’t here more than 1 year maybe 2

Yes prayers my friend

How about the fact that Merck actually was/is answering questions in THIS thread about various things pertaining to the program and bow we have to sort through all the stupid shit thats in half the threads around here anymore.

At one point in time it was actually expected on this board to keep threads on topic. Mods have pretty much let that go to shit.

Whether it be food threads, ask merch stupid questions, who/how/when nonsense, Ty Chan nonsense, listing off 1000 white athletes every timenwere recruiting a white WE, etc etc etc its all the same.
It is funny the first time because its original thought, then its a nightmare of never ending sequence of bad spinoff of a “me too” movement of middle aged male nerds who think theyre funny trying to outdo each other with corny attempts at humor.

Sorry, its not funny.

I once read though a political debate on the comment section of an Alexis Texas video. It was pretty entertaining.

Me too. Also are you my alter ego
