**** Ryan Day
- Thread starter NDblitz
- Start date
It's hard to say if it had an impact. I give Holtz a pass because he is 86 years old. But...if a legendary ND coach calls the rival team "soft" the week before a big game...I mean why would you do that?
I think we have just about kicked this one around to death, but I couldn't resist posting a piece from FIW that gives a blurb on what Dan Patrick had to say about Day's meltdown. Patrick is spot on:

Some of the memes and tweets following the Patrick video are priceless. The conclusion: Day is a crybaby. And he is still as soft as shit.

Day has always been a dbag. I don't care for the guy myself, but his comments after the game did not bother me. That whole "his team is soft" thing goes back to last year. Love Lou, but he he had it coming. He's using that type of material to motivate and fire up his team. Nothing wrong with that. I think Day fully knows this years team is not quite what is expected in Columbus so he'll do whatever needed to will his team to a few extra wins. Dbag or not, who doesn't want a coach that does that?
It was more than Holtz's comments, there's been bad blood between the two schools going back to last year when Freeman said it was a mistake picking OSU over ND out of HS.
Yep, I agree...If John Cooper would've said those same things about the Irish before the game and ND won and Marcus went off afterwards on Cooper he would be a Hero on here and you know it!
Glad you brought this to the thread. For his first words on the field after the game to be such, is a little bit of “thou does protest too much”I think we have just about kicked this one around to death, but I couldn't resist posting a piece from FIW that gives a blurb on what Dan Patrick had to say about Day's meltdown.

And ND mauled them the last 25 mins
I’ll repeat that it had zero impact on game. And I can also agree that I wish Lou had not said it.
I seriously don't understand what the big deal is. Who cares?! Are we really that sensitive to get all butt hurt about coaches, etc., taking shots at each other? In this world of over the top political correctness, maybe some need to come back to reality and realize that if you decide to shoot your mouth off and take a shot at someone or a program, etc., you should expect it back at some point.
Best part, no one died, both teams will move on and play this week and the world still spins around the sun...

The difference is that Marcus Freeman wouldn't have done what Day did. One, Marcus has too much class. Two, Marcus wouldn't have gotten his BVDs all twisted up over the idle comments made on a sports talk show by a former head coach of his opponent. Day looked small and petty. He is getting ripped by talking heads everywhere for what he did. And rightfully so.
And you know this how? He's already said things about OSU in the past. Classic!
No, but I'm fascinated to see a HC be that worked up as he walked off the field.
What does your question have to do with the conversation?
You know that makes no sense, but anytime.e you want to get back to the subject matter let me know
Really? Did you miss the Freeman comments from last year ripping OSU before the game and how he made a mistake going to OSU out of high school - instead of ND? That's what triggered all of the hate between the coaches and the following of both schools.
Oh, and guess what school won BOTH games?
Wasn't that the last time ND won? WOW, closing in on 90 years. Good God, that's just crazy!
Some would say crazy is being beholden to a conference to be relevant
Freeman "ripped" OSU before last year's game? Show me where that happened. Freeman saying he wished he had gone to ND is hardly the same as "ripping" your opponent. Freeman has always been respectful of OSU, but I guess you OSU fans are as delusional as your head coach. If your head coach had to muster up false bravado over perceived slights from the innocuous comments from an 86-year old man, he is petty and small. And if you have to come on the message board of a rival and post taunts and stupid comments after your team won the game, you are equally small and petty.

Not an OSU fan. Graduated from Northwestern and like many others in the Chicago area that are sick and tired of the ND arrogance.
And I don't have to show you anything - all I have to do is point to the scoreboard of the last 2 OSU-ND games. Had enough?

whats that got to do with him being a douche bag? Now go play on the highway
He's also been throttled by Michigan the past two years and if this year is number three look out below!
