Do we know more about the status of injuries?

Not on the list, but I don't understand how Carr is injured when he's running scout team.

What’s up with Carr?

What’s up with Carr?

Little bit of elbow soreness, he's fine. Just not gonna be thrown into the game in garbage time. Afaik, it's from contact in practices with scout team, not from throwing (or falling down stairs)

The tv executives have taken over the game. Exciting times

 

[NDdomer2]

is project rudy some code name for getting ND to join a conference?

 

[benneboy]

Apparently Swarbrick is a part of this deal. We'll see where it goes

 

[notredomer23]

Can’t lose to NIU or Marshall if you don’t play em!

Are you saying Disney is using the services of Jack?

It only get more fucked up.

I’m leaning towards the creation of an all powerful commissioner. Someone has to restore order. I mean it’s seems a likely next step for a sport that has become little more than NFL lite.

They have that in the NCAA.

 

[LifelongFan]

Conferences never should have grown to be more than 10 teams. That's what killed it. What's the point if you aren't playing every team?

 

[ulukinatme]

Is it going to be called the Mickey Mouse League?

Notre Dame isn't considered a top 10 job. It was ranked number 12.

Notre Dame football not seen as Top-5 job in the sports world

There are reasons why some might not want a Notre Dame football job but it bears pointing out it's not seen as a top job.

I hate these lists because they're just a listing of the most recent teams to win championships plus teams in recruiting hotbeds. No one can argue that ND doesn't have unique challenges but if someone at ND wins a chip, it'll immediately be in the top five. During my childhood Bama was seen as merely a top 10ish position because they really had only had one period of sustained success under Bear Bryant in the 60-70s.

We were discussing this ranking in the Freeman thread last week when this poll came out. It's also a little overly-focused on NIL resources (which is the only reason I can see why A&M and Miami ranked ahead of us). But, yes, Michigan is not a meaningfully better job than ours except that they just won the national title and so they ranked #7.

 

[ulukinatme]

Miami is ahead of us? That's kind of a joke. Several years ago they had fliers around campus looking for walk on linemen because they were short handed. They've been basically MIA since 2000, we've been more relevant than they have been for the last decade. They have yet to make the playoffs, although this could be their year to break that. They don't have to play Clemson, and the rest of the ACC isn't very good since Florida State fell off and Louisville has proven once again they're more of a spoiler team than a well built program.

Yeah, I mean, being head coach at Miami was apparently such an unpleasant experience that after having that job, our defensive coordinator has decided he's happy to simply be a defensive coordinator.

Anybody have a number of snaps Leonard Moore has played so far this year?
Kid is about to get work in this Saturday, have to imagine GA Tech will throw his way at least 10+ times.

(3) healthy corner backs with still half the season to play, in what could be the season with most games played ever for a Notre Dame football team.
NCAA / College football needs to look into expanding rosters, because this model is not sustainable for almost anyone.

Scholarships for football are going to 105 instead of 85 for the 2025-26 school year.

Sadly a few years too late in my opinion, but glad it is getting fixed. Typical NCAA
Can't expect teams to play a possible 16-17 game schedule with 85

 

[CTIDANDREW]

Anybody have access to what his PFF grade was for that performance?
Thanks for reminding me of that.

 

[IrishSpartan]

Anyone know if anyone would be available for the playoffs that were ruled out for the season?

What offensive formation do we normally run? I was trying to think of this last week but couldn’t come up with it

Trips might describe it. 3x1 also works. Basically 3 wide receivers on field at all times
