Bowen to Oregon

Loser. Honestly. May end up being a good football player but unless he ends up in the 1st round of NFL draft or ND plays them in a game and he is starting he just fell off the national radar.
 
Just another reason why ND should always hire good football coaches who can develop talent and manage a roster.

These types of recruits rarely commit to ND, regardless of the coach.
 
Explain how Freeman got played exactly. You do your best to recruit a kid. If he goes somewhere else, he goes somewhere else. Everyone knew he was gone. Are you trying to say Bowen going to Oregon as opposed to Oklahoma makes Freeman a more inferior recruiter? Don’t understand the logic.
 
Best of luck with the Ducks!

LOL

We sell more tickets at the highest prices than almost anybody in the country and then we turn around and pinch pennies in recruiting, in coaching staff hires, in facilities, etc.

Makes no sense.

Really frustrated with the job the administrators at ND are doing right now.
 
Classless move. No character. Dad failed in that regard as his mentor. If I were ND I would immediately stop recruiting his brother. They won't get him anyway and why would you waste your time.
 
No he isn't. Simply playing the same game the SEC and USC have played for decades.

For some, you "...fight fire with fire."
sure, wink, wink. Paid players 20 years ago when there was no NIL. Money behind Chip's show cause. Bag man active this week. Of course you will defend your PAC12 track outfitting buddy.
 
If I were Freeman, I would put zero effort into recruiting the brother. It's one thing to flip, this was far worse.
 
I'm just shocked! Shocked, I tell ya!

Peace out. have fun in the new and improved Pac 12.
With USC and UCLA jumping to the big 10, the Pac12 will be nothing more than a glorified Mountain West. Being the Pac12 champion will be akin to being the most attractive Denny’s waitress. That‘s what being a duck will be.

From a visibility perspective no doubt but from a competitive stand point those 2 LA teams have won a combined 1 Pac 12 championship in the last 13 years.

Because he lied to freeman and our players over and over and over again even this week
 
I haven’t talked to him in ….. ever… I was just trying to read between the lies and couldn’t even do that since he lied so much
exactly.

ND was aware of his behaviors but did also respond to what he conversed. Being 'played' is a purposeful connotation on your part.
 
This obviously has Nike NIL money written all over it. Oh, well. We still have a pretty good class.
 
Losing recruits last minute happens.

The saddest part of the entire recruitment was watching his mother in his announcement video today. She was so excited when he put on the ND hat, and so sad when he took it off and went Oregon. He didn’t even tell his Mother (who loved ND) beforehand to prep her for the disappointment.

It takes a special kid to go to ND, Bowen isn’t one of them.

Exactly. If not ND, then why not Okie? At least then mom is close and she'd be content with it. This is all $$$$$. And he will be miserable. That's my prediction. But Oklahoma was dirty and pompous so F them.

Girlfriend says she’s not cheating on you over and over and over and over…. You then find out she was all along….. you just got played

where can i find a girlfriend that can keep USCs 5-star WRs out of the end zone though?

Prospects have ALL the leverage. All you can do as a coach is fight with everything you got until the last moment you possibly can and then let the chips fall where they may.
 
From what I see and glean, he doesn't belong at ND anyway. I'm not surprised or bummed really. I'd like to wish him well, but he's exactly the type if kid that I have zero respect for.
You’re just figuring this out now? Total jerk around game
