This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

They are 100% correct by SEE

> Every year ND lost recruits to the bag man. If you follow ISD or others, you’d know it’s common.
> Compare transfers before Freeman to after Freeman. If you can find a comparison for what they brought in this year I’ll be all ears. They brought in the #1 transfer QB, the #1 RDE, the top WR from Clemson. I don’t think it’s close at all.

To be able to plug in a QB, a JJB an Oben and a nickel into a team as transfers is a luxury no previous coach has had. I think the transfers on this team outnumbers the seniors who made it to four years from at least one previous class.

And I should mention that ND is expanding numbers and exiting players as well.
