ND vs Cards game day thread

[NDinNJ]

You have to bring up money.

The teams at the top of the SEC take football seriously and invest in a tier 1 product. ND does not.

ND keeps the purse closed (minus the coordinator investments this past offseason) but celebrates/promotes the team like its some juggernaut destined for a national title.

It's comments like these that make you look foolish because you have zero knowledge of how much ND spends on football

I know enough to know they are not spending anywhere near as much as Georgia and Alabama are.

Look at the 85 man rosters between ND and these top SEC teams ... NO WAY POSSIBLE is ND spending ANYWHERE NEAR as much as they are in recruiting, in NIL, etc.

TX Am is spending a ton. We won at their place by 10

You don't know sh1t, and here's why. Multiple recruiting analysts have stated NIL and $$$$ is not the issue at ND, ND collectives are willing to spend the money. The issue is the top 50-100 recruits don't want to go to class. ND will not change that and they shouldn't.

the talent/85 man roster is probably the most important component to program building, but there are other ancillary components like coaching, scheme, development, track record, etc. that matter a lot too.

TAMU and ND have similar 85 man rosters*, but ND has TAMU beat in the other components as of week 5 2024.

To add..

TAMUs 85 man roster is nowhere near the level of Georgia & Alabama

And Alabama is still well coached! Sure they have great players but, those players are executing beautifully against the current dynasty of CFB which, is still loaded and has Kirby...we or so far away, the fact we have MF is laughable that I was duped by his personality...Alabama goes from the goat to a guy that coached in the NC game last year! Alabama serious, ND NOT. Don't bring $$$ or academics up cause we've been missing coaches like this for 28 years and most x's we don't even try!
Edit...Alabama is filthy again!! 4 drives, 4 td's against #2Georgia...ND 16 points against NIU?! MIC DROP...I'm done boys time for a nice glass of 🍷& some other CFB!

“….sure they have great players…”

Should have stopped there.

I've been off a while. I meant to say that final series by UK had the worst offensive playcalls that I have seen in some time.

 

[ZibbyQuinn]

but more losses to MAC like teams.

Haha Jesus, short term memory. Kelly was bent over numerous times by shit squads. Don’t defend that mediocrity

I wasn't a fan of Kelly, but I also believe Freeman is not the guy either.

I was a fan of Brian Kelly. Still am.

Mississippi is next for LSU.

Lane Kiffin is favorite of mine as well.

 

[Get Nasty]

Freeman has an undisciplined team every week

The team sometimes shows up

His desires of what his offense looks like are awful, 3 different coordinators, 4 different qbs, terrible offense vs ok teams

He has no ability to make adjustments

Has no clue on time management

Ouch!
