Irish Eyes Smiling... Again?

♣ "Irish eyes are smiling" is a phrase often thrown around more than a dog in the back of an old pickup truck. People love to reference it whenever there's a change with Notre Dame football.

Almost unsubstantiated but assumed; and we all know what happens when you assume. We've assumed for the last decade and we all have the smell to prove it. The stench of losing can often prove difficult to lure in a top-notch athlete.

Defensive tackle, Bruce Gaston, is just that. Having been accessed by the former regime, and having them determine his offer-quality, should help reinforce the Kelly doubters that this kid is something special and "worthy" of an Irish offer. He's expected to make his decision tonight.

Will Irish eyes be smiling after? Everything I've read seems to point to Boston College being his choice. But who knows? Maybe Irish eyes will be smiling for the one-hundredth time this decade? I just hope those same eyes have something to really smile about come fall. ♣

Having the will and determination to be competitive in any situation is an innate characteristic that senior Notre Dame point-guard, Tory Jackson oozes out for a weekly display. He might be all by himself but he’ll fight until the end.

His deft driving ability coupled with his creative mid-air passing can be seen on a regular basis, as well as the lack of support around him. All alone and on an island, Jackson--the youngest of eight children, consistently gives Notre Dame a chance when playing against long-armed, more athletic players.

In another life, Tory would have probably been a caterer since he dishes out so well. Averaging close to 6 assists per contest and ranking in the top 5 statistically in assists to turnovers margin, Tory Jackson proves he belongs with the best in college basketball.

I only wish he had some help. True, Gody is putting up unbelievable numbers but when it comes down to the knack for making unbelievable plays, Tory stands alone. If “Noder Dame” as Brian Kelly would call it, wants to be playing in March, they need to go out and recruit five more Tory Jacksons.

♣ Notre Dame needs to keep this pipeline open, plain and simple.

Hard work, aggressive play, speed and determination seem to be a characteristic of

the Punahoe school in Hawaii, and Jeremy Ioane is further evidence of such.

With 4.5 speed and a physically strong frame, Jeremy could fill both roles of safety and or defensive back.

Standing at 5’10” and weighing 180 pounds, Ioane is a pocket missile waiting for his big offer to come.

Manti’s dad knows how good this kid is, let’s just hope someone from Notre Dame realizes it too! ♣
