If you are this young mans father allow me to welcome you to Domer Domain. You must forgive some of us for the rude reception and allow us to explain as we have seen this type of situation before. Unfortunately or otherwise some of us lead with our feelings and those feelings have been crushed in the past due to being jilted by certain young men who made commitments to our fine institution and we watched helplessly,later, as those indviduals turned their back on their commitments for various reasons. You must understand sir that we collectively want nothing more than to see Notre Dame return to the national pedestal it belongs on. So when your comments were written and read by members of our family here without the benefit of the attached explanation the old "here we go again" poked its nasty little head from out of the closet. Personally sir I dont care what star ranking your son has as long as he is completely commited to our institution and its football program of which recruiting serves as its life blood and we follow it here at Domer Domain with dogged determination and loyalty. As fans sir I can also assure you of the fact that even before your son has signed his name to his letter of intent we all here consider him a part of the Notre Dame family and would gladly take him with or without you! As a father myself I can understand your logic for the article and I have spent time in South Carolina and I do understand the local collective thought process and the pressure he must be facing. I give him credit for choosing the road less traveled and for wanting to be his own man! He chose a fine University to receive his higher education and once again we are happy to have him!

Believe it or not I work with a lady who looks similar. Get to see it every day!

I had not heard USC made a statement like that. Curious if we beat them what the statement will be afterwards?

Just a little more.... Enjoyed the game and had "a lot of fun" Was allowed on the field for pre-game. Got to hang out with the players and then met with the staff on Sunday. Mahone seems to be a low key kid with his head srewed on straight. Playin it pretty close.

I am sory fellas but I dont know if I can do this anymore! I waited all day to watch this sorry excuse for a football team give away ANOTHER fu____ game late. We are now 0-2 on the season and just lost to another team we should have beaten easily. Turnovers...poor play calling...this team is an embarrassment. I really need to consider whether or not my health can conitnue to allow me to watch this crap!

Straight up!

The worst half of football I have ever seen played. Mistake after mistake. Notre Dame deserved to lose the way they played. USF may not be that good but they won! Played better and safer football than we did! We were outplayed on the field and its as simple as that!!!

Getting our ass kicked

Grays fumble turned this whole game around! Score one for Gray. Kelly needs to get this under control NOW!!!

Jonas Gray is a nightmare

I heard some crazy stories when I was a cop from the other guys I worked with. One guy watched a red glowing orb in the sky and tried to follow it until it dipped out behind a tree line. Said it didnt make a sound and he had it in eye sight for at least 45 minutes. Never made an official report. We had a much publicized incident in Liberty Ohio take place a few years ago where a cop followed the mysterious red lit triangle in the sky and was actually radioing what he saw back to his station the whole time. I will post the radio traffic if I can find it. I too also know a guy who worked on "Have Blue" at the Groom Lake location and said what we see today we had 30 years ago. He also said "it would freak you out if you knew what we had in the works" [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlYFop3KWiws[/ame]

SMU was sickening! I doubt anything would ever or will ever be able to top that. This is not the bombshell it promised to be. Good luck trying to prove any of it or get it confirmed from anyone directly involved. I thought it was going to be much worse than this. The only real damage this could do is taint the players listed that are still on scholarship there. Notre Dame personally recruited alot of those kids. Mike Adams,Simon,and Sabino easily come to mind. I dont think you can say any program is entirely clean anymore.

Sounds like you have some deep seeded issues with Austintown! Not a bad town but I speak as an outsider!

My wife teaches at Fitch High school and I have had the chance to watch Mahone on numerous occasions. It will be very easy for me to get the scoop. Kid is good...real good but I was suprised to hear ND offered. Not because he is second tier talent but because ND usually keeps it to Cardinal Mooney around here! I will be catching quite a few Falcons games this year and will update accordingly!

Bulgarian AK-74 chambered for 5.45x39. Awesome gun!

This post applied with your other post makes me wonder why you feel the need to resort to insulting other posters? Not sure where your hostility is coming from considering its just folks opinion in a stupid thread?

Good post! All im saying is give the school and staff some credit! They worked their asses off and everyone doubted their recruiting prowess and whether Notre Dame was still legit enough to pull in classes like this. Some of you are not as passionate as some of the rest of us and I get that. Its okay! Not everyone is going to agree, however you cannot consider yourself credible and take away from this class and doing so is a disservice to the effort and work put in by this staff. This is without question one of the top 10 classes brought in ANYWHERE! To say otherwise is complete nonsense! AT SOME POINT YOU HAVE GOT TO GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT IS DUE!

How is it embarrassing? They spend 10 minutes talking about our class but yet have us rated so low! My initial point. We have perhaps the top defensive class in the entire country and we arent even in their top ten. So they gave us some love...move the friggin class up where it belongs and quit being ignorant jackasses and give the school props for bringing in a top ten worthy class!.

How are we ranked 11th right now? I hate those bastards!!!

Tuitt is in!!!

All speculation on Farrells part. If Tuitt switched tomorrow that would suck but I doubt it!

I dont get why the kid would even consider taking their phone calls? We have a killer class and he is a nice part of it. If the kid left for Oklahoma this late in the game he would have to be nuts!

You shit head! lol

Say what? That would be a first! If true thats sweet!
