Riley Out Rest of Spring

Here is a compilation of ND players that were drafted in the NFL:


I don't have a dog in this fight, but looking at the list it seems to me BK was given a roster filled with some pretty good players. Maybe not great talent, but certainly some good players and a few really good ones, such as Zach Martin and Harrison Smith. (I assume those are the two HOF players that Golson refers to.) Maybe Weis was unable to coach them up properly, but that doesn't mean BK inherited a team bereft of talent. Certainly it was a better roster than Weis inherited from Willingham.

If Riley Leonard goes down we arent winning meaningful Playoff games. That would be the much bigger loss. So no way there

What has our LBs shown that Rubio, Hinish and Onye hasnt?
We have no idea if Riley can win big games, let alone playoff games. Rivals average ranking for KVA, Ausberry, Sneed, Bowen is the 79th best player in the class (3 in the top 50 overall, 2 five stars). When’s the last time ND had 3 LBs ranked inside the Top 50, 2 5 stars?

Onye, Hinish…NA

Blue Gold Game

Your first 8 words are spot on.

Then shut up and stop replying in a “Spring Game” thread. Damn, you are insufferable at times. Telling people you don’t care about a thread you didn’t start is just stupid and narcissistic. We don’t like you. We don’t care about your feelings. We couldn’t care less about your opinions. You’re just a jackass with a username.

Nice try, in trying to change the subject.
That’s a tactic that you often use when you’re losing an argument, so I’m used to it
Since you seem to have forgotten the issue, it was about the team that BK inherited in 2010, and not the players in subsequent years.

Only one player from the 2010 team was drafted by the NFL in 2011

And only three players from the 2010 team who were drafted in 2012, played in the NFL.

That’s an irrefutable fact !
Go look it up.

But I’m sure that you’ll keep lying to yourself and everyone else by trying to convince everybody that your position, which isn’t born out by the facts, is representative of the 2010 team.

Since you brought it up, I had dinner with the president of an NFL team last Tuesday night and I’m playing golf with an NFL owner next week. I don’t know the commissioner, but I would certainly like to have dinner and/or play golf with him. Maybe this summer.
BK inherited a loaded roster. One that had over 20 players play in the NFL. Including multiple 1st rounders and 2 HOFers

Dont listen to me. The NFL spoke on the issue. It's final. The proof is in the NFL history books

i know thats hard for you to deal with.

facts are facts

The NFL has spoken. It is over. They decided that over 20 players that BK inherited were NFL worthy.

i didn't say it. They did. Go talk to your owner friends and the Commissioner.

The elite teams don’t have a massive drop off like Cross to Onye, sorry UGA, Bama and Oh St beg to differ. That’s huge. We’re going to need Onye and Hinish a ton since that’s the nature of the position, and not one of those guys was a 4 star. I’m not a star guy but saying the position is fine behind our starters is Luda- what have you seen from Onye and Hinish to think otherwise?
Onye Rubio Hinish were all solid last year and are a year older. Yes elite teams have drop offs.

Our DT situation is very good and 99% of the country wishes they had our 5 guys

We'll be fine. They are all good players

I looked at Ohio States depth chart and their 2 backup DTs are Hero Kanu and Kayden McDonald.

In their careers they have combined for 11 tackles and 1.5 sack. Talk about a major dropoff, eh?

Then you can say that about every single position.

So yes you are right, when you lose your best player at a position, that position is a concern

Even if we lost one, we'd still have a good rotation but not elite like it is now

But as of now, DT is zero concern. We are very good at that position
I won’t be losing sleep if one of our RBs, QBs, WRs, LBs go down. Safety, DT, CB- absolutely.
