If Charlie Weis really did write that note, he should have been a doctor.
Does anyone remember the shit Syracuse and Virginia Tech was saying about Notre Dame to recruits last season?
This Gary Gray bit will die out soon enough. Then the next big story will boom.

That doesn't even look close to Weis's autograph on that card and I would think that just the words ND would be enough to persude a kid to chose ND. I don't believe it for a second.

I think it's pretty funny, even if it really did happen.
But for the record, even though Notre Dame is the better school, Clemson offers a pretty damn good education.
But my guess is that the sports journalists are trying to pander to the South Carolina fans and have been seeking out prospects to say bad things about ND.
Btw, the note "House of Rock" posted itself was a joke written by the people at HOR. If anything was sent, the contents won't be revealed unless Cumbie ever produces the letter himself.

No, it's just that someone's post made me think that they actually thought it was the real letter... don't mean to be patronizing or anything.
EDIT: wait.. no, apparently I didn't see the sarcasm in one of the posts.. okay, my mistake.

Clemson frosh says ND tactics negative (South Bend Tribune)

Screw this kid! I remember when ND was recruiting him. So freakin what if we sent you a post card! With these accusations this kid better be a stud because he has caused alot of attention to himself with his mouth. If he doesnt produce then people will see all this as a ploy to just get attention. His coach even said that he never saw any of this stuff going on. I hope he likes wearing those ugly Clemson uniforms.

Let me start by saying this 1st-I love the Irish(if you couldn't figure it out by name-A1IrishFan). Anyway I live in the Ann Arbor area, and work for Uof M-hospital. I was driving to work this mornning listening to the local sports radio when I heard about Cumbic article. The "on air personnialities" were all over the Irish & Cw for negitive recuirting, but don't you worry I called in to rep the Irish. I ask if there were any proof-letters, ph records-anyting which they didn't know. The only thing they had to say is how come CW doesn't come out denie it if it wasn't true, and of course when I tried to responed, they cut me off. I have no doubt that ND & CW will have something to say about this-only it will get buirried on the back page. I could go on and on, but I'll end by saying GO IRISH

This sounds like the media hounds...

...cornered this kid and maybe misconstrued what he was saying as well. We have all seen the threads here about McCray and others who have verbally committed coming to Charlie and crew 'wanting some love', but being denied stating that 'we handle committed players differently'. With us NEEDING (not necessarily wanting) McCray much worse than we needed Cumbie, I have to take this as a bunch of horseshit. Talk about smear campaigns...oh and by the way, if that SC newspaper did misquote the kid, I am sure that ND's lawyers may ask for a large retraction in the paper to 'clear the air'.

Both men are class acts. I wonder if Coach Dergo will say anything in regards to this.

Yeah, I thought it was a note Cumbie actually provided. I'm a jackass.
Hang in there, Ron. Best wishes.

Notre Dame football coach Charlie Weis on Thursday denied a player's accusation that the Irish staff criticized Clemson after the incoming freshman verbally committed to the Tigers. Jamie Cumbie, a 6-foot-7, 255-pound tight end announced last June that he would attend Clemson. But he said Notre Dame continued to recruit him the only school to do so.
