Golden has 52 catches through 7 games and the ND single season record is 78. Golden would have to average 4.3 catches a game including the bowl game to break this record.

Golden has 116 catches for his career and he needs 63 more to match the career record of 179. If he stay next year, this will be broken.

Golden has 847 yards receiving this year. He is 402 yards short of the single season record of 1249. He might get that in the next 2 games.

Golden has 2058 career receiving yards. He only needs 535 yards to break Shark's record. Once again, he could pass this mark later this season.

He total 1050 total yards for the season. Tim Brown holds the record at 1937. A bit of a reach, but you never know when you are Golden.

Record #1: Broken
Record #2: Not broken
Record #3: Broken
Record #4: Broken (with bowl game)
Record #5: Not broken

LOL thats his future son. Just wait til he getsb to ND

It's the Tate lineage.

Golden's father (also named Golden) was a stud Divison 2 wide receiver who made it to the NFL.

Golden is a ridiculous wide receiver playing for the greatest team in the college football history.

Golden's son (presumably named Golden) is going to be a once in a century receiver. Book it.

Wow its hard to believe how far he's come as a wideout. I remember his freshman year where he had 1 route and that was run deep. Its amazing to see him play the position and its a credit to him for continuing to get better

This thread brings tears of joy to my eyes.

Also, I think as fans, we should write and record a Golden record for our boy Tate. That would be a much better gift than a framed jersey.

Does anyone know if Wesley Tate has gotten any PT yet at Vandy? I've been waiting for him to play but dont think he has.

If Jimmy and Golden don't get to wear green jerseys at their final home game next season, I will write an angry letter to Jack Swarbrick himself (not that that would do anything)

I haven't heard anything. He was supposed to be better than Golden. I really don't think so.

I believe Golden will be back for his senior year for the mere fact that he also plays baseball.

dshans got my platinum comment (as usual).

I was responding to jason's :

In the record biz, Platinum Records were beyond Golden Records.



Who would name their kid, Platinum Tate?

Now Titanium Tate has some cache.

78? 45? 33 1/3? A Side? B Side? LP Album? Mono? Stereo? CD? MP3? AAC? WMA?

Aural minds want to know.

He will become a credit card.

Platimum thingy, with gift rewards.

Make sure you say "credit" and not "debit" to the cashier. Adds to the bonus points.

Because you get Golden before Platinum.

Golden is only 5 Receptions and 78 yards from breaking the single season records for receptions and receiving yardage

He was also just named along with 14 players to Semi Finalist for the Walter Camp Award

Golden has simply been amazing.

He will go down with Allen Pinkett as one of the most wasted talents in ND history because of the mediocre teams he was on.

I don't understand that comment .... just because they both play(ed) on teams considered 'mediocre'!? They could be "wasted talents" because they could have been utilized in a different manner (used in different formations to get more touches, more return opportunities, etc.), but not just because they play(ed) on 'mediocre' teams!

Agreed. If it is one thing CW has done, he has found a way to get Golden the ball. Watch the Purdue game.

Wasted talents in the sense they were superstars on medicore teams. Just like Jay Cutler in Chicago, Archie Manning in New Orleans, Steve Young on Tampa Bay, etc etc.

You get a Golden Tate type once every 10 years if lucky.

Wow, did you just mention Jay Cutler along with Archie Manning and Steve Young? Superstar? That's more than a little bit of a stretch.

yeah, Jay Cutler, in the words of Dennis Green, is exactly who i though he was: great arm, can make all the throws, but wets his pants when it counts the most--in the red zone. he has always been this way.

right now, and i am serious, he is more comparable to Jeff George than Steve Young or Archie Manning.

but i digress.

Jay Cutler was heading into star quarterback territory until he landed with the muck that is the Chicago Bears.

Are you ever NOT negative??? I looked up your recent posts, and almost every single one is spewing negativity, even when it has nothing to do with the subject at hand. We're talking about Golden Tate's records, and yet you have to spew more hate, for no real reason. It's getting old. I understand that times are bad and it's not a 'sunshine' time to be a ND fan, but you seem to bring it with every post, and it's getting to be a tired act. There are plenty of threads for your negativity...this shouldn't be one of them...
