Douglass had some athletes that will be playing high level football.

Exactly. You’re on the 1, it’s a 6 inch penalty.

Again, I haven’t said he needs to be fired, but if you think the responsibility of having 11 men on the field lies anywhere but with the head coach you’ve lost your mind. By the way, he literally acknowledged he knew he didn’t have enough guys on the field.

He needs to get there first lol. Guarantee you Day has never trotted out 10 players to defend 2nd and 3rd and Goal from the 1 yard line with the game on the line. How do you defend that as a Notre Dame fan?

I’m not calling for anyone’s head, just simply saying this was the fear when you hire somebody who doesn’t know what they’re doing.

Coaching malpractice by Freeman. It’s exactly why so many people questioned his hire. Forget the last 2 plays where they only had 10 players on the field, it doesn’t even get to that point if ND doesn’t throw the ball and a subsequent incompletion on 2nd down the drive before. Remember, OSU was called for intentional grounding with 15 seconds left and was able to call a TO they shouldn’t have had to prevent a 10 second runoff. They ended up running 4 more plays instead of snapping the ball at the 20 with 5 seconds left. Failure

Shannon and Banks were the only Mr. Football winners on that list. Robertson himself was a defensive lineman, believe Brandon Peters won it that year who I certainly don't have any qualms with. If Blake Fisher didn't win Mr. Football tough for me seeing any future lineman winning.

One is not like the other in that list. All those guys with the exception of Shannon were afforded scholarships to major D1 programs. Still a phenomenal list of high school players regardless.

Banks was much more physically gifted than Otis Shannon.

He did have two NFL offensive lineman. But Otis at the time broke the state rushing record the year he won and likely would have added to it had they not been upset early in sectionals.

ASU's starting QB was ruled out 4-6 weeks before the Fresno State game and they lost QB's #2 and 3 during the game.

He was fired from USC after suffering through their worst season since the early 90's (the whole staff was) and spent one year last year at West Virginia and voluntarily left. But you want see one West Virginia fan said to see him leave.

Probably too early to make that call on Walters although this is not the type of industry where you want to learn the job on the fly. I do think Walters was pretty careless in the hiring of his support staff. A lot of young and up and coming coaches instead of having some veteran leadership to assist him through the first few years.

Public. 4A level enrollment.

A 6'3 265 lb WR??? Lord I know they have a junior WR who has a ton of P5 offers as well.

They have several P5 recruits and beat Trinity earlier this year although Trinity may be down. Thinking the Irish will need to play extremely well, turnover-free football to win.

I'm not buying any USC hype until their defense can stop somebody. I think Duke's win over Clemson is more of an indictment on Clemson than it is Duke. Solid team this year, especially for program standards, but I don't think they're anything special. I'd be more worried about playing a potentially undefeated and ranked Louisville team at home in a few weeks than I would Duke if I were a Notre Dame fan. Ohio State and Notre Dame should be a barn burner. McCord needed a few games to get his feet under him.

Don't know if EC could handle the grind of the 6A tournament nor should they be expected too with 1270 kids. But in a one off game who knows? I think they're the real deal this year and Ringer is special. Would have to think Cherry, Sherrell, or Gotkowski who are all the perceived best players on the three best 6A teams will probably command some attention assuming one of those teams win 6A. Danny O'Neil Cathedral was probably the front runner coming into the season and while he has put up some good numbers, likely doesn't have the the team to make a run this year.

I'd say Josh Ringer RB East Central is probably the early front runner. On pace for a 2500+ yard season and 50+ TDs. Plays on arguably the best team regardless of class that should go 15-0 en route to a 4A state championship.

Thinking it’s Colorado and Alabama. Tommy Rees might not make it through the end of the weekend.

Rutgers should be above Wisconsin and Minnesota in my opinion. They’ve looked far more impressive through 3 weeks. 10-13 is interchangeable although Illinois and Purdue have taken major steps back from last year.

Thought the offense started to click once they took the training wheels of Jackson in the 2nd half. IU was all too predictable play-calling wise in their game against Ohio State and much of the first half against Louisville. There’s some talent and athleticism at the skill positions and Jackson appears to have all the tools. His maturation as the season progresses will tell a lot.

Can he call plays? Walt Bell is awful and will yet again be the downfall of what should be another disappointing season. That 4th and G play all alone should be a fireable offense.

That's my thought as well. I think they're going to get Tucker based on Tracy's client relationship with Michigan State.

? I don’t think MSU wants anything more than there to be enough to fire Tucker for cause. They quite arguably gave him the worst coaching contract in the history of sports. Tucker and this woman have spoken on the phone 27 different times with the average talk time being 30+ minutes. He admitted to having phone s*x with this woman on multiple occasions and thought it was consensual the entire time. As far as Harbaugh goes, I have no clue if he’s lying to the NCAA. The NCAA says he did and he says he didn’t. He accepted a 3 game university self-imposed suspension to soften the damage. Who knows 🤷‍♂️
