Friendly reminder: 12th ranked class with no 5 stars yet again in 2025 - Where's the evidence of a new level of performance going forward?

You have no life, no friends, no one that loves you. You were born a loser, you live your life as a loser and you will die a loser.

This is the explanation that he just does not seem to understand; possibly does not want to try to understand. The constant posts repeatedly indicate no understanding of the true mission of the university. No real care for the institution, just one aspect visible to hom.

This is why I have stopped responding to his drivel. He's either mentally challenged, or ignorant of the facts.

The football factories also have a higher acceptance rate. Ohio State has a 52.7% acceptance rate, and 88% of their full-time students take 6 years to graduate.

Notre Dame has a 16.5% acceptance rate and 90% of their full time students graduate in 4 years.

According to the AP final poll, ND beat three top 10 teams. I would think they qualify as some of the best teams in the country.

And a 10-4 record vs USC since 2010

Notre Dame is a tier 1 team.

Absolutely

If it was only in 2024 this one year it would be different but this has been going on dating back to the beginning of the turn of the century. ND hasn't been competitive with the modern powers in the sport at the top of the mountain in aggregate over decades of time period.

So we are going back to 2000?

Bama with DuBose and Franchione and Shula? And UGA was 17 seasons away from losing less than 3 games in consecutive years?

Lol, you try too hard and it’s enjoyable to continually expose you

But...but...but....I read somewhere on here that the academic focus/differences are just an excuse to explain why ND won't sign all the 5-star Rivals players...who should I believe?

I have attached the mission statement of the University for you to peruse...you will notice that there is NO reference to funding a professional football franchise as being a priority for the University, nor is it referred to as a means of carrying out the University's Catholic mission.

I think we have isolated your problem...you simply misunderstand the reason that the UNIVERSITY of Notre Dame exists...now you know...so you can stop with the foolish commentary that suggests that the University follow the Los Angeles Dodgers model of professional franchise building...

Oh, and an interesting tidbit from my time on campus (MANY, MANY moons ago)...a friend that worked at the OLD tiny bookstore told me that they made as much or more money selling merch on GRADUATION weekends as football weekends...

The Mission Statement of the UNIVERSITY of Notre Dame

Hum you believe marketing the ND brand to attract qualified athletes is a bad idea?

While I agree in part, I ultimately think it’s much simpler than that: he’s just starved for attention.
