Guest SirJohn Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I thought this was a Rhett Butler item at first. It sure does look like people are jumping on the train, the band wagon and anything else connected with Notre Dame. The more the merrier. It sure is nice to have something to smile and shout about once again. Sir John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Murph Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I watched it, and besides the fact that Stephen A. Smith is a complete jackass I thought it was good. Did you guys see him try to bring in the race issue about the whol Willingham thing (Nice Try Steve ) Oh and the part where he tried to bring up Urban Meyer and Charlie quickly said "We're not talking about Urban Meyer!" It was Great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest IrishTobey Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I watched it last night and I thought it was good. I really thought Stephen A Smith was pretty good. Believe me, I get sick of ESPN but I thought he asked questions that had to be asked. He brought up the Paul Hornung comments, which is perfectly fair IMO, and I thought Rocket answered it beautifully. In a nut-shell Rocket said he thought what Hornung said was out of frustration and desperation to see ND succeed. Holtz was his typical self and had the audience on the edge of their seats. The best part was when the kid asked Weis about the inexperience on defense with only 3 starters coming back and Weis basically said that Minter and the staff will use that inexperience to get the guys "flying to the ball" I about jumped off the sofa. What a great answer from somebody who obviously gets it. I thought Weis handled the question concerning Ty only getting 3 years perfectly. Smith said it very fairly, in the past at ND it's been understood that coaches get five years and while that has not always been true it was with Faust and Davie. Weis just said that "for whatever reason Willingham was let go ND was going to bring in an ND guy" again I about jumped off the sofa. When Smith asked Rocket to tell coach Weis what to expect from a player at ND from a players standpoint and Rocket talked about the passion, and the childhood dream to play at ND, and the fact that they will do anything the coaches ask them to do, and so on I was about in tears. That was sweet. Smith asked Rocket about the last few years and he said the team lacked the fire and the motivation to win. He said basically that he felt like the team was not convinced it could win every game. In a nut-shell he meant it's the coachs job to prepare and motivate the team to play and those 2 tasks were rarely accomplished in the same week. Truthfully I wish I wouldn't have watched it because now the next 4 weeks are going to seem that much longer. Sep 3rd needs to get here fast before I implode.
