Facts mean nothing when the opinion comes from the football GOD. Us mere mortals and our data are for those commoners that don't understand the game of football.

It's about going to a program that can win a national championship, I'm sure he would have taken the Florida or Oklahoma jobs, as well. He wants to compete against the best. Playing against Navy, Boston College, and Stanford has to get incredibly boring. I mean.. did you see his $$$$???? Furthermore... living in Baton Rogue compared to South Bend... holy crap, massive upgrade. Baton Rouge is considered one of the worst places to live in the US. It has some of the highest crime rate in the country. Also the state of Louisiana is always ranked as one of the worst states in the country.

btownqb Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 So... some ND fans on here believe that coaching job is top 5? and they are as good as any team in the country outside of OSU and Bama. I have no clue what to say to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't they pay their coaches accordingly? Notre Dame invests heavily in academics. And besides, the Catholic Church has to take their cut of the profits...

I feel like I'm talking to every old person that lives in Indiana about ND lol THIS IS NOT THE 60s or 70s!!! Go to the south... Notre Dame is an after thought. Ohio State is absolutely the ONLY team ANY of them worry about, outside of their own conference. But hey... academic standards or whatever other excuse you all can come up with. Lucky for this old man I live in Indiana. Let me get back to my transistor radio and rabbit ears. Honestly what people that prefer the confederate flag over the US opinion means very little to me.

Hopefully they drop the sorry ass program and focus on rowing or something because obviously they are terrible. . I will buy you a cookie and give you a sticker for being the smartest on the board. I honored to be in your internet presence. Finally others see what I hav seen for a long time.

Just like you I look at the data and rankings that are published every year. Louisiana and most of the SE like Alabama, Miss. and Arkansas are always ranked in the bottom 10 of state rankings to live in. That includes crime and poverty levels and many more stats.

I am not a cold weather person and my wife really wants to move Florida, I keep saying Alabama 30 to 45 min from the ocean because its much cheaper. I am all for moving to Andalusia, Alabama.

It's certainly not TRYING to p*** you off or even annoy you. I'm going to argue my opinion until the bitter end, which I hope you will, as well. 40% of what I say should NOTTTT be taken literally. Like when I said "ND sucks" ... cmon, I don't seriously think that. I just think they are a good 1 or 2 rungs lower than 3 or 4 teams in the SEC, and I did find rumor in BK leaving ND. BUUUUUT... I did mention I think ND could come out better in the end. Said that multiple times, and I said I thought they were a top 8-14 program. I think that's fair for a team that hasn't won a title since 88. All I'm saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
