Our recent commits are terrific. But ND will never compete without correspondingly talented wide receivers . Forget the portal . The future is now.

"But ND will never compete without correspondingly talented wide receivers"

When ND proves it can throw the ball downfield (think Ohio State, Tennessee -- other teams who can and do throw the ball downfield) -- then the uber talented receivers will begin to look at ND,

Can't argue this but there is most likely other factors involved here too. Hate to make excuses.

1. Ohio state players aren't required to go to class. Big city and a program that will try to win at all costs and tweaks out when they lose to michigan like the world is ending.
2. Tennesee= warm weather party school that probably doesn't care about academics as well. ( SEC)

That being said, hopefully the offense starts doing what you say consistently. Greathouse will surely help.

Used OSU and Tennessee as examples -- as far as OSU and kids going to class -- they attend more than you think (I live in this town, so I get to hear it all) -- that said, yes, OSU does not do what ND does as it relates to the whole student-athlete (if we can even use that term anymore) experience.

As far as freaking out when they (OSU) lose to Michigan -- that is like an early flippin' Christmas present to me! It is utterly hysterical watching this town flip out (but, also had to listen to them when they beat ND in the NCG).

A lot of athletes now do online classes rather than in person.

I just find it interesting that coach Freeman said himself we did not have to go to class when he was a buckeye.
