ND's Talking Heads ... The good, bad & ugly

[Old Man Mike]

Not necessarily hard workers at the entertainment business in my experience. Many just "show up."

Some are even just cliche artists and not even particularly insightful about most things (or don't bother to talk at any depth.)

As I said: I'll wait for the product/performance at THIS job. (rather than diss the ND guy.)

 

[ND7983]

Andrew Ivins is such a douche.
His new rankings on 247 are garbage.
No ND players moved up, they either stayed the same or dropped. Has McKeough as a 3 Star. Has Ewetade barely ranked. Grubbs plummeted.

I'm sure this has been discussed before but does he have some sort of ND beef? An affiliation with a rival program?

That seems illogical and shady, to be quite honest.

I don’t think some slight happened they just literally didn’t do anything. Basically was leave ND where they are except Grubbs didn’t get Elite 11 so drop him. It’s more a remarkable lack of effort than some ND hater campaign.

You know Ivins worked at BGI?
And HATED it & ND fans.
He is a Miami fan.
Everyday at BGI he ran his mouth about how much he hated ND & ND fans.
This isn’t a secret. Irish Illustrated employees are not allowed to talk about it or his past. Prister doesn’t what the bad beef.
Everyone who knew Ivins back then knows the truth. He is the most petty human out there.
And yes, he does have a bias towards ND. It’s not a secret.
And multiple ND players dropped, and zero moved up. Thats hard to do.
It’s not a coincidence.
I know you like to argue with everything I say & you have to be right about everything…but I know Ivins. I knew he back then. I know what kind of person he is & what his motives are. He openly told people at BGI, a ND site, he hated ND & ND fans.

Between this Ivins rant and the Charles Powers rant last week, this has to be Reaper and I’m here for it. Can’t wait for the inevitable singer rant as I love these posts lol

 

[DCDomer]

Not necessarily ND related but our unofficial mascot is hosting the ESPY's and had some good lines. It's a cringey format/event but he got a few good zingers in there.

Alot to process here. All I really have to say to all this is Fuck Michigan. I can't stand those dirty cheating whores.

Have any of you guys watched his show “Tires” on Netflix? Absolutely fucking hilarious. I would highly recommend if you enjoy Shane and his style of humor.

His style of humor is old school; he is going to zing a lot of different beliefs on both sides of the isle. Not for the easily offended. I personally find him hilarious, but there were clearly some icy, uncomfortable moments last night. I agree with his own take on it during his monologue: "Lighten up, this isn't serious."

 

[Dale]

Shane is funny in that he knows he’s so popular that he keeps booking gigs like Gameday and the Espys because they crave the viewers but the in person audience doesn’t want to laugh at his stuff compared to the TV audience.

 

[Dale]

“This ranking update was approached as a “tweak” and not a complete overhaul. It comes following the completion of key summer events (Elite 11 Finals, OT7 Championship, Texas 7v7 state tournament, the final few Under Armour regional showcases and college camps around the country). We will have a major rankings update for the class of 2026 in November and will be actively updating grades once the all-important senior seasons get underway in early August.

"The focus of this update was positioning the quarterbacks as we saw a majority of them throw at some point over the past two months. There are a few other risers, but for the most part things stayed the same as we are waiting for new game tape. Remember: If a prospect goes up one spot, a prospect must come down one spot. We also have eight newcomers to the Top247 along with seven new four-star grades outside of the Top247.”

 

[NDMatt91]

On the 247 composite, ND actually went up 1 point in the class score and the average went up from around 92.15 to 92.24.

 

[Dale]

Not a single ND prospect was proactively dropped besides Grubbs. They were just hopped a few spots by people they moved up. Nobody “dropped” like 50 spots besides Grubbs. Saying they dropped guys when it was like a 6 spot shuffle was intentionally disengenous.

Considering JOB was already a 5 star on 247. Can’t really complain there. I’m not sure how many other commits were even at these events. Not many. Devin Fitzgerald might be the only one that comes to mind as “didn’t they see him ball out at OT7s” why not move him up? But I mean in the end, they made single digit changes to the Top 247. Single digits.


……or it’s a deep seeded ND conspiracy by Andrew Ivins.

Take a breath brother lmao

A breather?
Really dude?
I've been training at the local gym with 8 dudes, for 14 hours a day, in the heat sweating with my BOYS.
And you ask me to take a breather? Ok, pal.
When I used to help Coach (Drisckool) recruit the rural Virginia schools for D3 prospects, we never took a breather, EVER.
So when I see someone like Singer claim they work hard, I laugh.
I have a group chat with a LOT of inside sources and we always laugh at what Wiltfong, Ivins, Singer, Holland (clown!), and Frank have to say.
We know they don't know what their talking about.
You think you're tough? Come on my YouTube show and see how tough you are when you face off against IB Nation.
It's disgusting that people think that Vince is the mascot of IB Nation, Irritable Bowel syndrome is no joke, doctors say it's my diet of mountain dew and burgers with only ketchup on them.
They don't know that's what allowed me to play QB/WR/OT in college.

The crowd got scared to laugh. Which made me laugh harder.

I totally agree, I found his comments like "okay, i should've taken that out, that wasn't working all week" were hilarious. Or "Disney let me do it, so...."

There were obviously people who found it off-putting, and that made it funnier for those of us with a funny bone who don't mind the edgy humor or don't get so easily offended.

I have long suspected it. I actually like Driskell, so it's all good by me.

I did not understand the reference, lol.

 

[SeekNDestroy]

He’s not Driskell, he’s Reaper.

 

[CoachB]

Whoever he is, appreciate the insight. Keep on keeping on.
