Perhaps you should be more clear when you're trying to make a joke?....because it wasn't clear, IMO and sounded very much along the lines of those that hate on ND because they get a lot of media pub
Maybe you didn't see the :lol: at the beginning of the post? Hell yeah they get a lot of undeserved media pub. They haven't been relevant in college football in years and they refuse to play in a real conference.
I don't care for them either way, I just think of how ridiculous it is when their recruiting classes are ranked in the top 10 every year, they're preseason top 10 most seasons, yet they still suck major bunghole.
I don't keep up with their recruiting but I would be surprised if they pulled in top 10 classes every year with how strict they are in recruiting. As much as I dislike the media love for Notre Dame, I believe college football is better when they are better. Same with Michigan even though I despise their program as well.
I agree that it definitely makes the college football atmosphere different, just like when the Oakland Raiders play relevant, mean, smashmouth raider football.
pretty sure whenever someone is overly sensitive like that it means he was raised catholic. Ill give you 10:1 odds. im surprised ND is anywhere near the top 10 considering their pathetic teams the last 15 years. but you know how those altar boys grow up to love their sanduskys anyhow.
I agree. It's hard to be in the top 10 when you're limited with strict academic standards. They did lower them this year though. Ironically, they are currently 17th. Last year (2011)...10th 2010.....14th 2009...21st 2008.....2nd 2007....8th Just to give you an idea of how bad it was. Notre Dame's Next Coach Will Demand Lower Academic Standards | Bleacher Report
