    Portal intakes

    I have to disagree. We recruit wide receivers every year out of high school. We also have gotten WR's from the portal each of the last two years. It didn't seem to bother him then, so why would it bother him now? Wide receivers have it in their DNA that they are better than everyone else. I...

    Portal intakes

    Rutherford doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who doubts his ability to beat out the competition. It sounds more like someone backing up a Brinks truck to mom and dad's house. Or Miami getting tired of getting their butts handed to them so why not try to buy him.

    Note that this says he "plans" to enter the portal. It doesn't say he has done it. So maybe he is here for the bowl game and then again maybe he never even enters the portal. Guess we will see just like all the rest.

    Where were you when I needed you?!? And we had some pretty mean parties at the Pike house as well back in the day. Had our own version of the transfer portal with recruiting trips to Bauder and Massey!

    12/18 - MBB vs. UMBC

    All true but these days you need a few top players playing together each year to compete. Not someone one year and then maybe another a couple years later and the another the year after that. Keep in mind players like Bosh and Favors didn't stick around very long. I guess what I'm saying is to...

    #17 WBB vs Nebraska

    What I usually do is drop the family off right at the coliseum steps and then find the closest spot I can for myself so I am the only one making the walk. Likewise after the game I go get the car while they wait at the steps for me to pick them up limo style. Next best thing to parking right there.

    Profs, grades, and shafts

    Mine was thermo dynamics. We had a Chinese prof and I never understood a word he said in class, his English was pretty poor. If it wasn't for the Word files we had at the fraternity house and the fact he used the same final exam year after year, I may have never passed that class.

    Singleton to Portal

    Who knows what brought him to this decision. I don't think any of us are aware of the financials of his family and himself so we need to keep that in mind. That being said, I can see coach Key being understanding if that was the case and telling him to go out and see what the market will pay him...

    12/18 - #17 WBB vs Rice

    She is 6'6" and has a nice outside shot. :sneaky:

    12/18 - MBB vs. UMBC

    That's my bad. I read a post from a yellow jacket site that I thought said he committed but it was really saying we made his top five. But on that subject since there is often so much criticism of CDS, this is another case of one of the top recruits in the country considering coming to play at...

    12/18 - #17 WBB vs Rice

    She is back in a boot after playing again a couple games ago. Someone closer to the team can correct me if I'm wrong but I heard she reaggravated her foot injury in practice and might be out for a while longer.

    12/18 - MBB vs. UMBC

    I'm only guessing here but there has been talk before by CDS and others that DO will pop off from time to time and wasn't shy about expressing his opinions to his coach and others. After the way he was sat down in the Northwestern game and Mutumbo got the big man minutes for the remainder of...

    Romello Height is in the portal

    Van Der Berg, Height and Gore all came to us from the portal last year. No reason we can't it again this year. Good DL are among the most sought after portal players and usually seem to commit later in the process. We still have time.

    12/18 - #17 WBB vs Rice

    She has continued to have a problem trying to squeeze the ball into tight spaces instead of just making the easy pass. That being said, she does a great job on the defensive side of the ball. Inez is one of those "glue" players every team needs to have.

    Conference Realignment

    They may not move the needle much in men's basketball for the past few years but they certainly did for several years before that. And despite their level of play not being what it used to be they still have more fan support than most other teams and will still put more butts in the seats than...

    Conference Realignment

    Seriously, you don't understand how? The Prestige of the Notre Dame brand (deserved or not) puts butts in the seats at every sporting event they participate in. That means lots of ticket revenue. That includes football where they raise the average attendance numbers at every visiting stadium...

    12/15 #25 WBB @ #14 UNC

    Are you saying Dunn, Morgan, Blackshear and Noguero aren't quality players? Because they have all been here for the past two years.

    Conference Realignment

    Don't lose sight of the fact that this arrangement has ND as a full conference participant in all other sports which benefits the ACC greatly.

    Singleton to Portal

    Tee Higgins getting drafted in the second round probably had more to do with the fact he was in the same draft as Jerry Jeudy, Ceedee Lamb, Justin Jefferson and Brandon Aiyuk than the fact he played for Clemson.
