Army - CFP

Well, I have to go to a surprise birthday party at 6 p.m. Saturday, which means I can't watch the game. And that means I'll be peeking at my phone all night long, which means that this game is going to be agonizing, with ND eking out a 24-17 victory or something like that. Before you scoff at me, you should know that I've had to miss more games than I'd care to admit to over the past 20 years, and almost every time, it has come down to the wire. This year, I missed the second half of NIU and the fourth quarter of Louisville.
The only way I would miss a game is a death in the family or my kids wedding. I would start feeling under the weather saturday morning, LOL.

Army - CFP

Talk about nonsense. Army has their best victory against mighty East Carolina. They haven't played ANYONE. Sure maybe if they had one so so SEC team on their schedule and the stars aligned perfectly they could pull an upset. Nearly impossible for them to win more than one game against an SEC schedule. 1-7 at best.
You forgot about the vaunted Lehigh Mountain Hawks at 7-3.

Fighting Kelly’s of LSU

I think they should fire BK at this point. He can take his 60 million buyout, on top of the 30 million he's already earned, and retire, and sit on his pile of money, of 'generational wealth'. Thanks to ND fans, LSU fans have become equally bonkers and almost violently agitated over a three game losing streak. And they can replace their hated 'yankee' coach with someone hailing from south of the Mason Dixon line. Personally, I thought he was doing great. He took a legit dumpster fire program in total disarray, that he inherited from cajun favorite son Ed O., and had them in the SECCG first season. Recruited and developed a Heisman winner, who's probably even better than their beloved Joe Burrow. And was 6-1 this season before an improbable 2nd half comeback loss to A&M, and now the wheels have fallen off a bit, but it's not that god-awful of a crisis, and they stand at 6-4. And of course the bigger blow, losing BU. To a massive NIL deal that LSU wasn't able/going to match, that had absolutely nothing to do with BK himself. But he is the coach, so he does have to bear the blame anyway. He was not able to somehow save the situation, with some last minute in home visit or something. So that's his fault too.

So they should fire him. And just eat the money. And they learned their lesson. Don't hire BK!
The cajuns aren't going to put up with BK with 3-4 losses every year. He has one more year left. Another mediocre season and they will fire his ass. Couldn't happen to a bigger D-bag.

JOK career may be over

There are expenses as well. Plus they are supporting the other non-revenue sports. You're a moron. Go to school and take a couple of business and finance classes. I've included a recent report below. from the chart in the article you take the revenue and SUBTRACT the expenses to get the NET revenue, which may not even be the profit, but let's say it is, Ohio State most revenue, but just under $25 million after expenses. math is your friend, I suggest you brush up.

Add in the fact that you have no clue what or how Notre Dame is spending their revenue, you're simply assuming. You have a very unhealthy relationship with college football in general, and I highly suggest you seek professional help, because you appear to be psychotic.
Don't waste your time on those articles. They can classify the money just about any way they want.

Do you think that ND would be 10-0 right now if Freeman had just started Angeli like you wanted, and that anyone who knows anything would agree with you?
I never said I wanted Angeli to start, I'm just pointing out a QB that can't pass when needed in 2025 is not winning ND a NC! The NC QB CJ Carr hopefully will be starting next year. The bottom line is RL is not first round talent and will not be able to make that 3rd & 10 against OSU, Oregon, Texas, Alabama or Georgia w/ the game on the line in a semifinal game hypothetically that he can even get us there. That's it, that's all, he's just not a good enough QB, period! The idiots that keep denying this again make up about 1% and make all other ND fans look like idiots.

Basketball MBB: Defense disappears for Notre Dame MBB in home loss to Elon

Elon got comfortable in Purcell Pavilion on Friday night. That led to an upset victory over previously undefeated Notre Dame.

“On the defensive end, that’s not how we play defense,” said Irish center Kebba Njie. “That’s not what I feel like Coach Shrews (Micah Shrewsberry) built this program to be about. I think offensively, we played pretty well, but there’s a lot of our defense that didn’t show up really too much tonight.”

The MAYBE made me

🤣🤣🤣🤣

What a stupid comment
1%...and someone who has never seen elite NC' ND football! I get it now!! Sad you have no idea, you never saw these guys in ND stadium or 27 other CFB stadiums around the country...you know guy's like Ross Browner or Luther Bradley or Joe Montana or Tim Brown or Rocket Ismail or Jerome Bettis or Bryant Young and I could go on and on and on! Hold onto your RL.

We got tools to answer this question. That's why F+ and other advanced ranking systems exist.

Despite the head to head loss Texas has done more vs their schedule than Georgia has vs theirs which is why F+ has them rated higher.

Texas has 11 five star players on their 85 man roster to NDs 1 five star player.

Texas is the #2 team in F+ through week 12 to NDs #8 F+ rank. Texas has the #1 defense to NDs #3 defense (but they also have a top 10 offense as well)

Am I the only person on this forum who gets really fed up with people doubling down/ arguing in the face of ever mounting evidence against their point of view? Only to return weeks later (after the evidence/data is proven correct) to continue to argue in the face of the evidence again and again and again (even with the benefit of hindsight)?

At what point does your desire for reality kick in and become more important than your ego?
You forgot one thing, I don't give a shit about F+. I think it's an embarrassment to ranking systems

I stopped reading when you used that as an example

Williams can’t even sniff the field yet at the easiest position to play … that’s not me writing him off, but I’m also realistic that the odds are against him if you can’t even get on the field with not great wr play

Bettis isn’t playing wr at any point

All of our wrs are rated 5.6 or 5.7… thats the worst in the last 30 years I’ve been following

Odds are that only one makes any form of impact at the position
A lot of our top wrs didn't play or do much as freshman. He's way too talented to give up on. I won't be surprised if he is starting or our big play wr next year

I thought the same about Bettis before his senior year. Now I won't be surprised if he gets some run as an older player at ND

I don't care what Burress is rated. Although 247 now rates him in their top 247. I just watch the film and he could play. Don't care his ranking

If we only have 1 guy that impacts the position, okay. It's not the end of the world

I don't mind spending money on transfers that are proven vs some high school kid who hasn't played a down of college football. I feel like we should be able to find decent wide receivers in the portal more worried about defensive tackle recruiting those big boys are hard to find.
The problem is that there's very little upside/star players to be had in the transfer portal. Minus few exceptions, all of the upside is in highly rated HS prospects who haven't been evaluated/discarded by another FBS program.

We all want to guarantee a return on our investment with the least amount of risk possible .. but that comes at the cost of little to no upside on the roster.

ND needs to embrace the risk and have way more risk tolerance as it relates to their talent acquisition strategy/roster building.
