I had that same jersey. But I absolutely hated Powlus. I hated the fact that he would cower as soon as somebody breathed on him. Coan has those tendencies. A gust of wind could blow them over. I also hated how he would only look for Derek Mayes every pass attempt. He was so one dimensional. Anyways, I threw that Champion #3 jersey away as soon as I played football with it and got it dirty. Didn’t even clean it. Just tossed it haha. 

I was a kid, I didn't know any better.  He was the starting QB of my favorite college team, that's pretty much all it was to it.  I have no idea what happen to that jersey though.  I still have my Brady Quinn jersey with the numbers on the shoulders instead of the ND.

Born and raised on Long Island. Now living in Florida near the Tampa area. I became a ND fan in the mid 70's. My dad was a huge ND fan and as an Irish Catholic it was a perfect fit for me!!!!! My favorite player was "The Rocket" Raghib Ismail.

Thanks! I appreciate all the updates and in depth work you do for the site.  Always one of the first places I visit to find the latest ND football updates.

I can’t remember which one but I feel like I joined or became active during a coaching change probably Brian Kelly..

I’m sure we’ll get a surge of new members soon. Let’s play nice and break them in without scaring them off right away.

Looks like it! You joined in November of 2009, just weeks before Brian Kelly was named head coach.

Hello everyone! I've been an ND fan since Lou started coaching at ND. I used to live in SB and now live in Michigan. I try to get to a game or two every year and made it to the Navy game with my wife and oldest son and his wife this year. I attended a little private university in Indiana now named Trine University and I work for a Tech company on the east coast.

Lots of PA domers on here, love that we all stayed away from the psu cult

I am Gary and I am from Hebron, In.  Now live in Tampa.   Been an Irish fan since mid 70’s.  I live and die with Saturdays in the fall.  I kind of went off the deep end last year when we got handed our butt by Alabama again. My wife and I are celebrating our 30th next summer and we are going back to Europe as long as the damn virus lets us.  
 

I have been to 5 games, none of them a big game but a lot of fun. Latest was against and at Stanford.  
I have for the most part been a lurker, but really appreciate the banter, Faiths drawings and most of all Big’s recruiting updates and insights.  I graduated from an engineering school but sent my daughter to Saint Mary’s. 
 

I really appreciate the site.

Welcome everyone!

I am in southern California, about forty miles south of Los Angeles. I am in the heart of USC country, unfortunately.

The U$C fanbase has been mostly in hiding for a decade, but I have seen an uptick in folks rocking their USC gear. The populace is stoked about the Riley hire (they should be). They are going to be a problem again.

In any event, I have been an Irish fan since the 80s. I started watching in 1984, went to my first USC-ND game that year. We were in south Florida for a couple of years and watched Jimmy Johnson humiliate Faust in his last game. In short, it was a rough beginning!

But as my father was an Irish-Catholic from Chicago, it was obvious who he rooted for. I'm sure I had a choice to root for somebody else; I just was not told of that freedom.

I joined this board after Weis was fired. I don't post a lot and I go long stretches without checking the board. But when there is a major story, this is the first place I check.
