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.

Some numbers to consider in judging this program by ndgotrobbedin97

From the schedule, and as listed by ncaa.com:

Notre Dame:

Scoring Average per game (all games): 4.03 runs/game
That ranks 247th out of 295 Division 1 teams

Scoring Average per ACC game: 2.83 runs/game

Opponents Scoring vs. ND (all games): 5.53 runs/game

Opponents Scoring vs. ND in ACC games: 4.66 runs/game

ND was outscored in February against non-conference opponents Lafayette, St. Louis, UMass Lowell, San Diego State, UC Irvine, Incarnate Word and San Diego by a total score of 67-35.

Notre Dame is batting .229 as a team, which earns them the 281st spot in the overall rankings out of 295 teams in Division 1.

On the pitching side, ND is 153rd in team ERA.

Notre Dame was 1-6 in February, 8-9 in March, and 1-1 so far in April.

I'm sure others can add more statistics to help show how this team is progressing.
