I think both will play this year, neither are very big and at some point they’ll probably miss time so the other will have to be ready to step in. Could be as early as week 1. Will they look to transfer portal for a back up for added depth? Sounds like TB has been pretty accurate throwing the ball this spring. I agree that DP should have gotten more of a look in a few games last year but he must not practice well? They’ll utilize all their running backs in blue-gold game since there are only 5 scholarship receivers in spring practice.

Out of curiosity who are the many “chosen ones” you speak of? Not arguing just want your take. The only “chosen one” that I can think of in recent memory (does 2007 even count?) was jimmy Clausen who showed up in the limo wearing his state championship rings. I would say he was not a miss but obviously couldn’t take them to a national title. In fairness to the quarterbacks it’s also important to point out during the end of Weis and a majority of BK era they were way more than a great quarterback away from competing for a championship. Now it seems that overall roster talent is the best it’s been since maybe the holtz regime? Here are the quarterbacks I can think of since jimmy Clausen. Dayne Christ, Gunnar Kiel, Malik Zaire, DeShone Kizer, Everett Golson, Tommy Rees, Phil Jurcovic, Brandon Winbush, Brendan Clark, Drew Pyne. How many of these guys would you take over Tyler Buchnar? Probably way too early to tell what TB will end up but if they can somehow land Dante Moore he will be IMO the “chosen one” over anyone on my list including Jimmy C or Tyler Buchnar. Let’s see how the season plays out with TB running the show and see how Moores recruitment plays out and if either or somebody else can get them to a title

Was wondering the same

BK is on the gridiron digest?!? He better have booster status haha

Honest question but besides our favorite referee who else has proclaimed Tyler Buchnar as the chosen one?

ND has been all in on this to the point that if he goes elsewhere I’m not sure what the Irish do. He’s been to south bend a few times, recently for a 2 day visit. Rumor was he could be announcing soon and shut it all down but after his visit to ND he said he’ll schedule his official visits. Which means LSU, Ole Miss, Michigan and others will get a chance to wine dine and NIL the young man to come to school there

From what I gather TB and BL on same page as far as game planning on then on Friday’s BA would come in and try to alter their game plan. I think BA going to front office makes a happier TB and he also gets to keep his offensive coordinator. So kind of win-win for Tom Brady

I'll be anxious to see if some of the schools up here in NW IN will start up 8 man football teams. Up here the schools that don't play football offer boys volleyball in the fall. I just wonder if the smaller schools will have the numbers to have both 8 man football and soccer/cross country/boys vb or 8 man football and track/baseball. I know some of the smaller schools (Kouts, Hebron) share athletes in some sports Seems like Saturday mornings have replaced Monday JV games for a lot of school here in the north.

I think Yeoman has been at Penn since the early 2000's.... who has the next longest tenure at their school in the NIC?

Wentz heading to Washington....

And the Denver Broncos trading for Russell Wilson

Mishawaka’s own Justin fisher has signed or will attend Notre Dame as a preferred walk on. Assuming he takes on the role as navy scout team quarterback or maybe they move him to running back. Congrats to Justin! In other news today I saw returning starting center Jarrett Patterson tore his pectoral muscle in the weight room. That would be a big blow to the offensive line if he misses a few games to start the season.

Am I wrong here or was KK's former DC at Lowell a head coach at KV for a season or two?

Nice hire by KV. Has he coached since leaving Franklin County?

Been that way since….. well I think always. Mishawaka and Speedway used to be the only schools without a school bus system. In Mishawaka there is a city bus service, Transpo, that kids could take but have to pay. No idea why it’s been this way but I know this guy walked to school 97% of the time from K-12, but luckily I was within walking distance. Has to be a pain for kids and parents who live further away.

No expansion for the college football playoffs, going to stay with 4 teams until 2026. I’m ok with this, I’m anxious to see how the next couple of seasons play out and if there are more than 4 teams worthy of being in the playoffs.

Matthew Stafford, hall of famer?

Was thinking about Aaron Donald offsides or at least neutral zone on that play

Her performance on the phone could never match her performance on the field. I’ve heard chatter that Ricky Watters should be a HOFer but I’d have to look at his numbers and compare. My guess is Zach Martin is next in line when he’s done. But with the door easier to get into I wouldn’t be surprised if Harrison smith ends up in the hall too. Just my thoughts.

So how about the bears and jimmy harbaugh being a natural fit? Lol

Read that he was asked not to come back to the team, this was a disciplinary decision. I'll try and see if I can find that post

IMO you can’t compare Marcus Freeman to Jim Harbaugh. One is a boarder line HOF coach and the other has coached 1 game. ND had a top 10 college coach and he couldn’t get them to that next tier to what they aspire to be, and I think they needed a new voice.

Harbaugh says he’ll be back in Ann Arbor in 2022

Merrillville’s JoJo Johnson entering the transfer portal, kind of bummed wanted to see him healthy and compete for maybe a nickel spot.

What's sad, as a Bears fan, is that you guys are debating who should be on the Mt. Rushmore, and none of those guys have played for the Bears in 50 years. I'd like to know if any other fan base has guys on their Rushmore who haven't played in as long????
