Michigan gets #1 overall recruit

This whole ordeal is very entertaining.

I believe that projecting quarterback success at the next level, high school to college, college to the pros is very unpredictable, so many variables and unknowns.

I got the Street and Smith college football annual, starting with Penn State's 1982 season when each team got about a 2-3" column and the top senior high schoolers list usually had a few PA QBs, most of which went nowhere at the levels.

I point to the NetFlix series' Last Chance U and QB1....it seems like the logical choice is to be caustious about about any top 5 QB.

The long list that 'seemed destined' for greatness included Dan Kendra and the Notre Dame PA kid Beano Cook touted for a handful of Heisman's.

It goes both ways. My brother-in-law graduated with Joe Montana who supposedly only had basketball scholarships before Notre Dame offered.
Many on this board should remember how Tom Brady played agains our team, while being passed over a few times for other recruits. I neither predicted or was surprised by his resolve or success at the next level.

i go back to Joe's comment after he had been burned with a focus nationally recruiting strategy that they were moving back towards players that wanted to come here.

On the related area, wiht WRs, give me a Parker Washington (wasn't he something like a 3*, but one who came in catching just about anything thrown his way and physical enough to break many tackles for YACs) or a Jordan Norwood (a player with the basketball skills to cut to get open and hands ready to catch the ball after the cut)., and maybe a Greg Garrity type as a walk-on...Even though neither was a top tier prospect, we have nothing close to them currently on the team.

Why Did PSU Do Away With The PSU/ Nittany Lion Open?

A possible other factor, Cael in the last few years has become a big believer in load management. If they are going to do an early season tournament (probably only one), I think he would prefer to take the team on the road since it helps another program. No doubt the headaches of running your own tournament is one headache the staff does not need.

Who would you rather play in Beaver Stadium in the Playoff first round?

I think ND has hit their stride and are a dangerous team. Thir QB Riley Leonard is playing really well. While their shedule is rather weak they are putting teams away by very wide margins, they have a strong running game with speed at the WR position. Al Golden (DC) has built a solid defense. At this time they have remained healthy.
Best teams are O$U, Tex, Ore, ND, Ga, Bama… everyone else is lumped together. Funny thing is Bama and Ga will have play first round up north!

DANNY CEVALLOS/MSNBC

As if MSNBC does not have enough inmates running this insane asylum MSBC trots out Danny Cevallos. As a backdrop to what follows MSNBC devoted 0 minutes to the televised trial of Jose Ibarra and the horrendous murder of Laken Riley! Obviously MSNBC believes the life of Laken Riley has no value, and the omission to inform their scarce viewers is telling as the failure to devote one second to this trial a matter of intense interest is a huge disservice to the public, who watches this horrid media outlet.
So, MSNBC in all its wisdom finally enters its observations in a postmortem, literally of the case, by permitting Cevallos, its legal analyst to lead with a story headlined..."Laken Riley's KILLER NEVER HAD A CHANCE!"
Of course, then this whacko analyst then goes on to praise the defense attorney while criticizing the Judge and prosecution team for urging and sentencing the Ibarra to consecutive terms of imprisonment.
MSNBC should be declared a hate group ala the KKK!!

Shrews & Notre Dame basketball loses to Elon

I too smiled at this result- however Shrews had a helluva week recruiting.

Hauled in guys who likely wouldn't even talk to us- which is a big part for him heading there.

Unless they are playing Pitino, Calipari, Baylor or the Gus Fring lead Longhorns I'll be rooting against him.
Anyone that roots for ND sports eats other people’s boogies.

BOYS IN GIRLS SPORTS

On ongoing case in New Hampshire is revolting and is evidence that the culture wars are alive and ill, and in this case unsurprisingly New Hampshire.

An Obama Judge overruled state law and determined that a 15 yr old Trans Girl should be allowed to play for the girl's high school soccer team. Two fathers of bio girls filed a lawsuit against the School District as they were banned from attending their daughters' games because they wore "XX" armbands to support their daughters. XX is in reference to the chromosomes that a bio girl is born with.

The case goes before another Judge, Steven McAuliffe, who is the widower of Christa McAuliffe the astronaut who lost her life in the explosion. So, during the argument Thursday, this Judge lambastes these fathers questioning their motive in wearing the wristbands was not in "support" of their daughters but as threat to the trans girl.

One interesting dialogue took place between one father and the Judge. McAuliffe asked the one father whether it occurred to him that the transgender girl might interpret wearing the pink wristbands "AS an attempt to INVALIDATE their existence?" In response the father got the best of this lefty Judge saying..."If he is a trans girl, pink might be the color he likes."

The questioning by this Judge clearly evidences his bias toward permitting boys to participate in girls' sports and even more egregiously denigrating fathers who want to attend their daughters' sports and exercise their free speech in wearing something in support or carrying signs or such other non-violent expressions of their opinions without being subject to punitive measures by the DOJ or Local Gendarmes.

Upset Alert

I know I'll probably get called crazy, but I have OSU on upset alert and most of that revolves around their depleted-injured OL which, many OSU people are super nervous about including my OSU grad son. He can't stand their OL coach - can't remember his name - and wants him gone after this year.

I know it's sounds crazy to say an OSU OL is the weak link of any OSU team, but I think it's been this way for a few years now and many OSU fans and followers are just totally POd. They don't seem to have the quality depth they've had for decades on their recent OLs. I think I'm going to concentrate on the Indy DL vs the OSU OL. If Indiana wins that matchup consistently, they have a shot at the upset. I'm actually thinking about taking Indiana and the points - just thinking about it right now
That weak o line dominated our defense at the end of the game to seal their victory.

anybody listening to the UFO hearings today?

Don't be a racist twit

It's a damn shame you got through 4 years a' college and nobody ever taught u the difference between ethnicity/race and religion.

I bring up religion because technofuturist sock puppets like Elon and company are gonna be using the "alien" psy-op to discount Christianity, etc. and to ingratiate people into all types of goofy techno idol worship.
