I've known you're an idiot for a while now, but I'm really amazed that you're so stupid as to not understand why ND getting more attention on ESPN is a good thing. "I was invited to post here by Wax, because I'm what you call an intellectual bar-raiser. The kids HATE ESPN I tell you!"
“If ESPN Gameday was at all of a notable school's games, they would have the number one recruiting class. Period.”
Your whole premise is simply nonsensical. The ESPN Game Day experience is a weekly marauding vaudeville college football carnival. Localizing it to one institution would marginalize, regionalize and change the whole basis of the show which is built around college football traditions, school spirit, major match ups and so much more.
Notre Dame can currently tell recruits that we air our games virtually every weekend on major network stations. NBC also offers us “impressions” during the week. In fact those impressions can be found on other stations too. That’s a very powerful and relevant recruiting tool.
Telling recruits that Lee Corso puts on funny hats and costumes every weekend at ND while making college football picks will hardly move the needle for a recruit. Your deranged thought that stationing game day at one locale would generate ongoing #1 recruiting classes is among the silliest things I’ve ever seen here.
However, your ongoing defense of it was sillier.
You do realize we have admissions don’t you? Many 4 - 5 star recruits aren't even considered prospects due to academics.
In your world, How many of those 4 and 5 star recruits would say the reason for choosing ND was because he doesn’t like the picks Desmond Howard makes on game day? or some other reference to the show?
“Mom Dad, I’ve reached a decision. I am going to choose ND over Stanford because college game day is there every weekend.” hahaha
I don't doubt you went to ND, but it was most likely for a game.
