Because that worked out so great for us the last three times.

THERE WILL BE A WATCH PARTY IN THE STUDENT UNION BALLROOM A. This is mainly for the students.

An article yesterday on Deion Walker mentions his friendship with Ianello. The timing is interesting.

Valpo is a guard-oriented team with no real inside presence. They like to get opposing bigs into foul trouble with quick play. Their fans seem to think that we are a slow team because we focus on the frontcourt, and they think their guards will be able to run circles around Abreu. They're in for a shock.

Yes.

New offer: Michael Casimos

Heck of a first post. Welcome!

Providence is up 1-0 on Dartmouth early on. NIU plays WIU in about a half an hour.

The reason this is even a discussion is that these players are being asked to not return to Notre Dame by their coach, to free up space for incoming recruits. As for GP1's questions, they all think they can make it in the NFL, but they haven't had a chance to play since their new coach changed the schemes from what old Charlie Weis used to run. They were benched in favor of freshmen who were recruited specifically for the new schemes.

New offer: JUCO WR Ronrei Lloyd

The real issue comes from the fact that we're also pushing hard to get a bunch of JUCO players in this recruiting class, as well. More than we already have. If all 8 ND players come in, and then you get 6 or so JUCOs, you're left with absolutely nothing for this class after only two years. The only way to fix that is to bring in a new wave of JUCOs once the class of 2012 ones are gone.

As far as team chemistry goes, Ianello's already removed most of the players that were against him, and most of the rest graduate after this season. After this season, the just about the only players on the team that are not Ianello guys will be in the senior class. So Ianello would be bringing in his own senior class to offset that. So we had better show significant progress with a team made up almost entirely of Ianello's own players and a dozen BCS transfers and JUCOs in our senior class (the ND guys, Suel, Price, Griggs, Blake, Rizzo, and Sabbat). By "significant", I mean at least four wins. Three or less and Ianello absolutely has to go, assuming that we inexplicably choose to keep him after this season.

They're making up for featuring Rob "Show Cause" Senderoff on Bull and Fox yesterday.

ESPN article on Coach Porter

Recruits officially announced.

Yeah I caught myself right after I posted.

This is Lady Zips...Can't State is terrible this year...Going to be between BGSU, Miami(OH), and us for MAC East title... I know this is the Lady Zips. Buffalo is terrible, but Duquesne usually has a good WBB team, and we're on the road.

RIP, Mr McKnight.

That game against Duquesne looks tough.

Do we run the Charlie Weis offense (do we even run an offense)? That's what these kids were recruited for out of high school.

New offers: LB Drake Michaelson ATH Bryce Jones RB Lakeith Walls commits to NC State.

Baseball signs eight recruits.
