SOooo.... the other night I closed the IPad down right one of your posts... and my wife opens it later and it takes me five minutes or so to explain to her how I am not on the internet looking at naked pictures of kate upton.. thanks for that.

I've had the same issue. Exact same.

If you're going to tell me to check it out, provide the link.

And 8 elite DL and OLBs still warrants mention in this thread, Bogs. IDK why you're upset with me. I have nothing to do with You/Wooly/NDinLA spat.

YOLO!

Tuitt, Day, Nix, EV, Rochelle, Smith, Spond, Shembo, Okwara, Williams. There is ten names that I listed. Tell me eight aren't elite or won't be during their college playing days. My point is we are deep. And this is legit. This has been hanging around in lots of forms since last spring. It most recently surfaced with people challenging OMM's statements about the veracity of our second team D-line.

For not having anything to do with, you certainly are inserting yourself. With your wish not to, my request is please back away with this explanation. Thanks in advance.

Did you try the argument that she really isn't showing anything? BTW.. it never works for me.

You are welcome. So instead of telling her you were looking at naked pics of Kate Upton, you had to explain how you were reading about alcohol on a ND forum?

Every time my son sees a picture of Kate Upton, he says "is that a picture of mom". Oh the innocence of small children.

I'm not going to touch the '8 elite DL/LBs'. We have a different view of the word 'elite'. No big deal (I hope).

But I'm sorry, OMM is not the Lord. As insightful and seasoned as he is, are we not allowed to discuss his opinion, not to mention when he presents them as facts?

I only shared my opinion that I don't see how someone could say our 2nd team DL will be the best in the nation (we have a freshman, Kona Schwenke and Springman for this example). There's nothing wrong with that. Period. Then I get called for 'trolling', because I have an opposing opinion of OMMs? That's weak.

I actually don't think that OMM is the Lord either; but I don't understand why any attempt was made to bring him into this. That being said, I don't think anyone on this site has the right to make a derogatory comment about Mike.

You brought him up, so IDK either, lol.

No I brought up the statement that he made. And the resistance our d-line talent gets in terms of talent evaluation and acknowledgement some quarters.

If you don't understand how you took that and made a negative and personal criticism out of it, we have some basic problems in our communication here, kuehnja. It is all about clear communication and personal responsibility, isn't it?

I'm lost and I don't have the energy to debate.

You win.

This has turned into the Jerry Springer of boards.... I hardly ever post because I have no inside info, but 2 things....
1. Not sure how kuenhja was brought in since he hadn't really incited anything in this thread
2. It's kind of embarrassing the Alabama guy telling us to lay off of each other

Maybe cuz it's shark week???

Prince Shembo's bike won't be stolen this year

Shark Week has everyone fired up right now.

Edit: Shits, I thought I would be the first to bring up Shark Week. Kudos to the other guy.

Here are some personal favorites:
-TJ Jones is a 1st round draft pick... from our very own Brian Kelly. Almost as ridiculous as the fall camp where he said Gary Gray would be an All-American. TJ does not have the athletic profile to be more than a second round pick at absolute best... and that's if he puts up 1200 yards and 10 TDs this year.
-Jarrett Grace will be better than Te'o because (insert stupid Te'o shortcoming). Te'o was the most decorated individual player in the history of college football and Grace has never played a snap!

Now that we're back on subject and the personal stuff is over with, I still disagree with this premise.

First off, define elite. I would define it in football terms as someone who is All-American and/or a 1st or maybe 2nd round draft choice. Elite is the cream of the crop. No team in the country has 8 elite defensive linemen. Not even close really...not even Alabama. And maybe you modified your statement, because you originally said ND would have 8 defensive linemen next year, which we won't because of the age differences of the players (they won't all be elite at the same time).

2nd, Jaylon Smith and Danny Spond are not defensive linemen. They are linebackers who drop into coverage and occasionally rush the QB (among other duties of course). But they are certainly not d-linemen in any sense.

3rd, I don't think Ishaq will be elite. He has shown nothing of the sort yet. I;d settle for pretty good at this point. Okwara and Rochell have shown they have great bodies but have yet to do a thing on the football field. Why are we putting such lofty expectations on kids who have never done a thing in football?

I see 2 elite defensive linemen on that list. I see others who have the potential to be very good, possibly elite someday. But not 8. Not even close really. We all wear ND colored glasses, but I haven't read anywhere on the 'net where someone says we have 8 elite or potentially elite defensive linemen. That's why I put that phrase in the "crazy, koolaid statements" thread.

I'm pretty sure half the board has him on ignore until his team learns to properly count titles anyway....

;)

T-Town may or may not be able to count, but damn if I haven't repped a dozen or two of his posts since he's been here :laugh:

I will say that while they probably shouldn't count the '73 championship they claim, they probably got screwed in the '66 voting.

I've said this over and over, but I think Ishaq has a very disruptive year. Yes, I'm basing this solely on the spring game, but he was a half of a second from ruining a lot of plays, FWIW.

I have to laugh at the fact that I have been banned for less than the crap going on here.
