Rumored Violations

[Irish4Life09]

Any possibility we can vacate the entire 2007 season?!?!?

 

[Luckylucci]

Definitely Wisconsin. Rose Bowl or bust.

Honestly this makes me wonder why I should follow ND. Before you jump on the hate Rudy train please read my post. The past 4 years have has high-highs and low-lows. We have been blown out by Navy and curb-stomped the Sooners. We have laughed and cried we have held a team on a goal line stand and had a Play named after a Catholic prayed used against us. We have added two nice trophies to our glorious trophy room and were battered as the sweetest one couldn't be gained and now we learn that BY OUR OWN DOING. NOT THE NCAA, NOT FEDERAL LAW, OUR OWN CHOICE THAT SOME OR MAYBE ALL OF THESE MEMORIES WILL JUST VANISH?!?!? What that hell what if we by a miracle win it all this year and a 3rd string lineman who blocks on kick return did this will that make this run not count?!? Unless by doing this we are avoiding a potentially worse penalty why make things any worse?

I'm happy that in a world where an actual student athletes are hard to come by and that our players graduate and have good lives but I'm a fan. I'm happy for their prosperity with their degrees but I don't have that prosperity I have a blue collar job where I want to win bragging rights among my co workers and over doing academic integrity selfishly doesn't get me anywhere. I know I've been negative here a lot and a lot of that is because here I can freak out because I can't when I talk sports with my co workers but honestly if we will just vacate wins on a while when we don't need to why get invested in this team to make these memories because the record books will shows these memories as never happening at your own teams discretion. Rant over sorry if I offended.

Stop, Rudy. Just................... stop.

I'll root for anyone playing Ohio State

 

[mango4]

All in with the Gophers, I suppose, since they are the closest big time college to me. Well except Nebraska and I hate them.

 

[Riddickulous]

Maybe it's us, the fans. Maybe we should all root for Michigan for a few years and watch that program implode like a dying star.

 

[tussin]

Presser is live.

 

[nlroma1o]

More from CFB Reddit:

Thank God!

D'Squarius Green, Jr. has been cleared of all wrongdoing.

Who's to say we can't suspend them for half a practice like the SEC?

Please, let's not make "half-game suspension vs Rice" into an annual tradition...

3 first round talents; 2 weeks before the fucking season starts. Of course. I wouldn't even wish this on michigan/USC

Whoa, hold on now...let's talk about this.

Woah woah woah don't get ahead of yourself. Michigan yes, USC no

Awwww.

But seriously, fuck Michigan.

The A's for D's tutor program.

Nice to see other fans didn't buy into the 2005 USC game

ND, if it's any consolation we had our 2005 loss to Texas removed and people still like to remember it.

And the "win" over ND that year.

Our season opener just got a hell of a lot more interesting...

no it didn't

So... we have a chance?

No

Whelp that confirms that two of our rivals "Didn't come here to play school."

You're next, Spartans.

Michigan is only spared because they don't write papers in the General Studies program

 

[Irish Insanity]

I doubt any of them are related. If they knew then that any of them were involved, they probably would have done the investigation then and gotten names at that time.

I was kidding.

Sadly, I will be relieved if it's ONLY the four guys that have already been mentioned. My mind can't even fathom the number 22.

This.

Just chuckling... Almost made it thru the off-season with nothin major happening, almost.

And to think, most were trying to predict how much we would run the score up on rice.

 

[WhoDeyIrish]

This is about the most pointless news conference of all time. moving on.

 

[nlroma1o]

No mention of 22 players. No idea where that number came from. Fr Jenkins only mentioned that 4 players are being held from football activities while they are under investigation.

 

[tussin]

lmao this is such a witch hunt... we are "investigating"

 

[WhoDeyIrish]

Someone needs to get to this girl and make her recant....

 

[nlroma1o]

They wont comment on how far back the academic fraud may go back bc its under investigation.

 

[FearTheBeard]

What a waste of press conference. Just release a statement saying your investigating, "i cant speculate" is just annoying to hear

 

[nlroma1o]

Basically they confirmed that atleast 4 football players are involved and thats all they are going to say.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

If I were Moore I would transfer to FCS school so i don't lose my last year of eligibility.

 

[Irish Insanity]

No mention of 22 players. No idea where that number came from. Fr Jenkins only mentioned that 4 players are being held from football activities while they are under investigation.

He mentioned 4 players and other students, maybe thats where the 22 comes from.

 

[Riddickulous]

Jenkins is dodging all questions. We won't learn anything new from this.

 

[STLDomer]

BK found out yesterday. Bout the only piece of info of taken away from the press conference so far

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Jenkins seems flustered

 

[Irish Insanity]

Unless I missed it, they didn't say the players are suspended pending the results of the investigation, did they?

 

[Riddickulous]

"No evidence" Kelly or the academic staff knew about this.
