Rocketsan 791 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 If you're referring to my post, I couldn't care less about OSU, but I will state facts when I encounter their ignorant fans or see things like the post I commented on. No, no I wasn't... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketsan 791 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I think the fact the game is more recent factors in. The BC loss is without a doubt the most soul crushing loss in Notre Dame history. Tulsa is the difference between 8-4 and 7-5. BC was for the national title. No, the fact I had to sit in a car for ten hour stewing over it was... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gettysburg Irish 0 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Not doubting you, but I can't seem to find any reports of this online. I wonder where ESPNU got their info. it was on espnu's recruiting show today at 5:00PM EST, just a quick blurb about why he was late, his cousins death weeks earlier and that he made an apology over the loud speaker.

Classic Irish 0 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Doug Flutie might disagree. Fair enough: their entire football tradition entails a Hail Mary pass and a fieldgoal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo88 74 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Doug Flutie might disagree. You're right. He might disagree, since his team won a national championship or 13. Oh wait.... Smart, but still ND's academic backup college. Decent at football, but when they win its an upset--regardless of how high we are ranked.

But they had a 6 game winning streak against us from 2001-2008. At the time, the 2002 loss was as bad as the 1993 loss.

echo88 74 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 In case anyone is interested (probably not anymore), the tweet regarding Davonte and Luke in disagreement came from Davonte's best bud and teammate Cody Ippolito. Ippolito was quoted by the AZ reporter, who then launched it nationally. With no confirmation of ESPN's claim that Luke Neal's cousin was shot the night prior and the mysterious lack of phone calls to cancel or delay the announcement, I think it's pretty easy to see how this unfolded. None of this matters, of course, but it does change the way I view the commitment and the claim that he was 100% Irish for weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be telling the truth, but his lack of discretion and ulterior motives are certainly enough to cast aspersion upon a second-hand account from him.

Domer Dude 0 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) From what I see - Davonte is faster than that Josh and about the same as George Atkinson. http://www.athletic.net/TrackAndField/Athlete.aspx?AID=3009977 http://www.athletic.net/TrackAndField/Athlete.aspx?AID=785842 http://www.athletic.net/TrackAndField/Athlete.aspx?AID=2974644 and is essentially the same speed or faster than Darby http://www.athletic.net/TrackAndField/Athlete.aspx?AID=746411 ______________________ Puts some perspective on our loss at CB. Still need more depth at CB but Davonte has speed at a skill position. He is not only fast but obviously on another level quickness wise - forward and lateral.
