Indy???? Post Jim Nabors??? REALLY???????

Yes even without Gomer. As long as my cuzzo sings God Bless America we'll be ok.

...and as a Hoosier you know, there is no sporting facility that compares to Indy. 400,000 with a seat and another 100k+ sitting on their RV's drinking 3 Floyds. Yay Indiana!

Linked in the OP, but here is the list.

Top 100 Stadium Experiences of 2015 - Stadium Journey

Cameron Indoor Stadium?

For me, Cameron for sure. That was my #8. Somehow, I've never been there. The reason I left it off was if the gym belonged to any other school not named Kentucky, Indiana or UNC, it would simply be an old, small college gym or just another big Indiana high school gym.

I'm not a huge believer in weight numbers as I am in relative strength but Studstill being at 189 sounds good. He could easily be at 195 and ready to go by the summer.

Under 240 for Hayes. That's good news for those betting the under. Lets see where, genetics, the weight room, the training table and Papa Johns takes him from here.

I really hope they keep his weight down for at least one season. Last thing I want to see is 1 year later he's at 260 with a blown out shoulder again because he's pushing too much.

They aren't going to let him lift for bulk but he is going to have access to quality food, lots of it plus we all know the dorms turn into Papa & Jimmy Johns outlets each night. It's impossible not to eat. We'll see how his genetics handle it.

In regards to the shoulder, some well placed mass on the shoulder will help if he has instability issues. Been there, done that. The problem is as you mentioned, you can do some damage adding that mass if you're not careful.

I'm just happy he came in under Kareem's weight. Wouldn't want anyone thinking that he could ever be DE sized.

His would-be boss is pry a USC alum.

Wow, would suck for us but can't blame him. Wish I had a job waiting for me when I was 21 that made me contemplate skipping at least a few years as a NFL player. Talking Elmer, here.

Elmer must have no dreams of playing in nfl. Kid could get drafted with another year under his belt I would think. Corporate world isnt going anywhere, at least thats the way i would look at it IF i wanted a shot to play at the next level. Which, Steve may not want.

Kid is more interested in politics than corporate world I believe. He interned on Capitol Hill. My guess is that the job offer is in DC..

The Notre Dame pull.

Come to ND and in three years, instead of getting drafted in the NFL and further developing your head trauma, you'll get drafted by the corporate world making six figures.

Best 8:25 of 2016 so far for me! Living just down the coast from Long Beach, I am amazed how many wonderful Irish fans like Mr. Romero there are here in SoCal. I was fortunate to grow up in a Catholic town just 30 miles from ND and can't imagine what it would have been like growing up not seeing those great 70's and 80's teams in person. I'd like to think I would have still loved it like Mr. Romero has all these years. Glad he finally got his date with Our Lady!

THIS is why there will forever be but one Notre Dame.

Looks like a nice haul. Gifts at bowl games have to be the one of the coolest perks being a CFB athlete (aside from a degree of course).

I see a whole lot of headphones, a few drones, and I think some big subwoofers. Can't tell what the rest is, aside from the dartboards. The dartboards had to be the thing you could tack on at the end with only a few "credits" to spend on the gift list.
