So classic.

Anyone got screen caps of the scoreboards from the Shamrock Series and Sun Bowl beatdowns of Miami?

So what was this a picture of?

 

[Irish Insanity]

So what was this a picture of?

A split pic of a winter storm and a sunny beach. People in each pic dressed for the occasion. Then it said something about how shity the weather is right now everywhere but Southern Florida.

 

[Luckylucci]

Got it, my bad. It thought that was a seperate tweet. Recruiter acting as a travel agent, what a joke.

The one i posted was a different one. It was a split screen showing the current temp in South Bend and Coral Gables and it said something like "why would you leave this?" or something along those lines

 

[Irish Insanity]

He ended up deleting the tweet after Alford responded to him beautifully. And blocked most of the ND fan base as he was getting destroyed.

Haha, it was directed right at us. Keep it classy the U. I would bet this was directly intended for Coney.

 

[ThePiombino]

Hahahaha this is pure social media gold. Big ups to Coach Jorge for serving this up!

 

[Grahambo]

Yeah, it backfired quickly on him. Even the U fans got on him saying how about you worry more about wins then the weather. Our own Pete Mokwuah responded too.

What did Alford say?

 

[Irish Insanity]

On my phone so I can't embed but this is Alford's:

@Coach_Baez Jorge- really? Come on man... Hope you're doing well. Good luck the rest of way in recruiting and in Spring Ball. #HighRoad

 

[PANDFAN]

You are blocked from following @Coach_Baez and viewing @Coach_Baez's Tweets. Learn more---- guess he didn't like my comment about looking where the current NFL playoff games are this weekend...told him to man up

 

[koonja]

You don't see this everyday, lol.

haha yeah that has to be a first, you could commend the kid for letting the staff know in person i guess

 

[pumpdog20]

That takes balls, good for him.

 

[palinurus]

Interesting piece on last year's five stars. FIve stars appear to usually play like five stars. You can win without them, but it does make a difference.

Texas DB Recruit Tim Irvin Switches to Auburn After Posting Pic of Cash | Robert Littal Presents BlackSportsOnline

Haha, this is pretty incredible. If I'm not mistaken wasn't Muschamp accused of giving players money the last time he was DC at Auburn. Not wasting anytime getting back to his old habits.

 

[zelezo vlk]

Not sure if anybody caught this, but Kyler Murray visited Texas. DaMarkus Lodge accompanied him. Charlie Skrong is trying to lock down the state of Texas. That doesn't bode well for Notre Dame.

 

[Ironman8]

TD Moton decommitted from Bama. Wonder what the deal is there.

If we lose next year, it won't be because of a few true freshman. Strong is going to do well there, imo. But his success and ours are not tied together. There was a times when Bama, Florida (right now) and USC all weren't locking down there state. We still found kids. We recruit nationally better than possibly any other team in football. He locks down Texas, then we just go find kids somewhere else.

 

[GoldenDomer]

So are we essentially giving kids the feeling that we are extension of the ACC?
