The Stakes Just Got Higher

[DonnieNarco]

I don't have too much heartburn with your assertion that recruiting is less of a problem than coaching, at ND. But, you can't just make stuff up to support it. Unless other recruiting sites are drastically different, ND has only outrecruited Oregon two years in the last 5. Since 2014 signing day has not occurred yet, I will go back to 2009 as a starting point. I'm using Rivals for my numbers:

2009 Class Rank: ND 21, ORE 32
2010 Class Rank: ND 14, ORE 13
2011 Class Rank: ND 11, ORE 9
2012 Class Rank: ND 20, ORE 16
2013 Class Rank: ND 3, ORE 22

So only in 2009 and 2013 did ND outrecruit Oregon, but you contend that we have better recruits? The numbers don't support that.

The three where Oregon outrecruited us were right next to each other. The two where we outrecruited Oregon are pretty huge differences. You also left out 2014 where we outrecruited Oregon, according to the 247 composite, which also says we outrecruited them in 2011

All right. I give. "Uncle."

What the hell is a "Spaghetti Monster?"

Another clue that I'm an old and out-of- touch fart, I s'pose.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster is a joke that shows how it would be ridiculous to teach intelligent design in public schools.
