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.

Was Reggie Ho a walk on? by mkovac
I remember attending the 1988 ND-Michigan night game at ND.
The only TD ND scored, as I recall, was a Ricky Watters punt return. There was a bomb from Tony Rice to a new speedster called Rocket Ismael. It could have been a TD, but it was a bit too long.
Reggie Ho hit 4 field goals. 4x3 =12 + 7 from the punt return and extra point by Ho gave ND 19 points.
Michigan’s John Gillette lined up for a last second field goal to add to their 17 points.
I watched it sail toward the south end zone and wasn’t sure if it was on line, but I watched Cris Zorich turn around when Gillette hit it and within a heartbeat Zorich raised his harms in victory before anyone else and it went maybe a foot or two wide right.
It was an auspicious first game for Reggie Ho, mister automatic.
