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.

Devine wasn’t always very good at that. I remember hearing by OldIrishFan

That he matched several recruits with Joe Restic and was surprised when they went elsewhere. Restic was a great guy. He played safety and punted for the team. He was studying towards the pre-professional degree and had a 3.8 GPA. He didn’t allow himself much if any free time as his days were spent at practice, meetings, and study hall. He would awaken at 5 AM to study for three hours before class and then would turn out the lights at midnight. He was a very dedicated student. I am almost certain he went to dental school. ND had many pre-professionals in those days. Off the top of my head, Ken MacAfee, John Leon, Dave Vinson, Joe Restic, and Bob Bleyer (sp?).
