He committed to OSU yesterday

Was at the game 1) Tired of visiting fans taking over ND stadium 2)The coaches leaving Buchner in on 3rd and 12 from around our own 20 was inexcusable. Why would you let an inexperienced kid make his first non RPO pass play from there against the best team ND has played. 3) Turnovers obviously. The points ND didn't get on their first drive and the 10 points UC got off ND turnovers. 4) The defense held them to 24. A number that should give you a chance to win but not with this year's O-line and QB situation. 5) The defense did give up the drive before the half and the big one after ND cut it to 17-13.(missed pat was deflating.) 6) ND looked out coached. UC looked better prepared. Did UC's familiarity with Freeman help them that much. 7) They had a 6'4" QB that could run and throw. We had one that is now at BC

Sheffter reported Wu fell in draft because of a heart issue.

Just recently read that every national champion in the playoff era has had 5 or more 1st round picks. Do you see any ND recruiting class with 5 first rounders or even a combination of 2 classes?

Would anyone else like to see Porter Moser replace Brey when Brey is done in South Bend. He is from Illinois, recognizes talent and gets the best out of it. Has been to a final 4 and is giving 1 seed Illinois all they can handle today. Also his teams really compete on defense.

In todays world where players transfer if they aren't starting by year 3, I think Angeli is a good pick up. If Buchner is the real deal Angeli might be more willing to sit 3 years. The staff just needs to follow up with another high 4 star next year. I think this news was hard for some fans to take because Allar looks much more exciting on film and a few writers said he has a higher ceiling. Angeli is never going to be Trevor Lawrence or Justin Fields but he can develop into a Mac Jones if they get him some playmakers at wr and rb

One time throwing the ball in the corner is on the players. Every time after that is on the coaches. 4 defenders against 3 ND offensive players and they didn't look up the floor nor did the 2 players in the back flash to the ball. Honestly, we all know they should have been better prepared for the press after blowing the Georgia Tech game.

Looks like he is recruiting Jyaire Brown a cb commit for Ohio State.

I agree Francus. Trevor Lawrence, Mac Jones, Justin Fields and Kyle Track are not knuckleheads. There are plenty of quality quarterbacks that meet NDs academic standards. Do you think it is coincidence that Dabo, Saban and Day\Urban get big time quarterbacks? The highest rated quarterback ND has recruited under Rees was Jurkoveck and they let him go. Rees needs to do etter than projects. Maybe Buchner is the answer - we will see.

Don't believe this is stupid. He went to a private high school, then Vandy. He coached at private Universities in Wake Forest and ND. Culture and Environment that fit him seem to be what he wants. Also there are many coaches that just enjoy coaching and not having the pressure of trying to win national titles. A winning season every year is satisfying at many universities. 8- 4 is celebrated at places like Vandy where other places they are calling for the coaches job. Look at Ferentz at Iowa. Solid program but not a national contender. Enjoy building relationships and the adventure that coaching is.

I certainly hope this is not true. He has recruited most of the 21 class to ND. Can't the administration give this kid a break? Kelly has to go to bat for him!

Have to disagree with you here. If you go back to last years playoff game vs OSU with Clemson trailing 16-0 it was Lawrence who turned the game around and he did it with 2 long runs. OSU was containing Etiene and the passing game so Lawrence changed the momentum with his legs. He is a better runner than given credit for.

Finally! A Notre Dame moment! Let the kids celebrate but pray no one got infected.

A lot of offenses and qb's have bad 2ND halves against Clemson. That is what Brent Venables does. Expect ND to have a tough time scoring in the 2ND half next week.

Halloween weekend?
