It is, but I think the reason a lot of us loved PTHF was because it was a video for the fans, made by the fans.

No argument here...I was the guy wanting to take up a collection for a sitter so Mike Brady could do our video bidding...:)

We decided to retire Protect This House Friday. Just wasn't worth the effort of our two video editors. Great videos, but it just never caught on the way we hoped it would.

Go Irish.



Horrible news. I appreciate all the time and effort you and your team put into them.

But, I think everyone on this board would agree that we would love to have these videos back. If there is anyway to continue with the videos it would be very much appreciated to make it happen. I'm not a video editor, but I would love to help out in anyway possible to make it happen.

I agree with what the others have said. Sorry if they didn't get the exposure you were hoping for, but know that those at IE looked forward to them every Friday and they will be missed. So, at least in this little corner of the web they made a big impact. Thank you to you, TP, and everyone else that contributed to them over the years! They were magnificent.

All of this.....

I still watch them over and over, and have shown them at the end of the day to my students during our Friday "pep rallies" before every ND game.

Today we watched the "Louder Than Words" one and the kids absolutely loved it. The videos had an impact far greater than you guys will ever realize.

I usually just lurk here, but this is something worthy of posting for. I'm in total agreement with others as well. These videos were a staple for me. I would anticipate every Friday (and then be disappointed on away weeks) just for the release of these videos. In fact, this is still one of threads that I get all excited about when it pops up on the front page. I'll always remember some of the classics from 2012 like Manti's "who's house is this/there is no place like home" and the one after the Pitt game featuring Golson in The Matrix.

As far as the reach I posted these on my Facebook darn near every Friday and always got tons of likes and shares. That coupled with all the enthusiasm here always had me believing that these videos were well received across the board and were pretty well known by ND fans across the board.

It's a shame if they are truly gone for good, but I'll second others in saying the time and effort was really appreciated.

Same here. And most of my FB friends are tOSU fans and they even thought they were well done.

Thanks to the guys who did this - they will be missed.

I don't think he realizes yet that the epic videos were what was getting him laid. $20 says he doesn't sire another child.

First of all, I think we can all agree that everyone needs more PTHF in their life.

Secondly, does anyone remember which video (maybe it wasn't pthf, but I thought it was) had the pep rally speech from Manti where he said "who's house is this?" and the crowd responds "our house" and they go back and forth before manti says "and tomorrow we gonna protect this house!"?

I've tried the google and can't find it for the life I the of me... reps to anyone who can help out!

...ONE MORE DAY!!!

Thanks my man - reps are on their way through the interwebs!

The first half of this vid always gets me jacked up. Counting the hours!

When I watch this I'm reminded of the difference between a guy like Tom and Malik Zaire.

I remember feeling very confident when Tommy came in for that winning drive.

What a tease bumping this!

Tommy was pretty good coming off the bench, but it's hard for a lot of QBs to do that. He endured far too much crap during his time under Center.

Can we get over Malik yet though? Feels like people can't let go of the fact he left, like he was going to start in place of Wimbush or that Ian isn't a suitable backup. I don't think Golson received as much backlash after his departure, and his exit wasn't nearly as classy. Crist certainly didn't get crap when he transferred.

No one cares that he transferred. Its been reported that he was a bit of a locker-room cancer last year when it became apparent that he wasn't getting the job back. I don't know the accuracy of that sentiment, but considering that the people who tend to dislike Malik are also the people who tend to have the most insider information I'd bet it was at least partially accurate.

This thread needs to be closed to avoid future heartbreak when there's no video here after a bump!
