Lets not overstate it by HTownND

I remember my freshman year, when comparing notes on our intro to Theology courses amongst friends, my course load and assignments were much much easier.

I assumed it was randomly assigned.

Then I showed up to the final with that instructors other section, which included the entire freshman football recruiting class.


Yes, we make our guys go to class, and yes, we expect them to graduate, but let's not act like it's impossible to get players that can do that at ND. They aren't all engineers.

Sure, some guys aren't interested in school, but I bet of those 44, we should/could have a chance at half of them, if we were selling championship quality football. Unfortunately, recruits, like us, see the continued embarrassment in big games, and all we can sell is, help be the guy who gets us over the top, versus, come here, get a great education, kick ass on the football field, win titles and get paid in the NFL.
