ND loses 5-star and 4-star receivers from 2012 class

Brian Kelly has got to be the worst at actually keeping his kids
March 27th, 2013 at 11:55 AM ^
Shawn Kemp.
He packed on a few by the end of his NBA career:
March 27th, 2013 at 12:09 PM ^
Travis Henry has Kemp beat - 11 kids with 10 different women.
Imagine how many kids he'd have if he didn't have the sperm-destroying power of marijuana...
is the clear winner. 29 kids with 16 different women. That's just impressive!
So he was essentially averaging 2/per? Hell, we should thank him, he's a job creator. Think of all the teachers / pediatricians / day care workers / farmers / school security guards / social workers / police officers / prison guards / parole officers / criminal court judges / court clerks / wardens / morticians he's put to work over the years just by having those 29 kids? Imagine him without the NBA...

Not his fault. Guy never had a chance. Sabotage. Treachery. Witchhunt. Disloyalty.

You need to add approximately 15 paragraphs to your post for this to be accurate.

but that was funny.
How strange that you praise another user who *just so happens* to have joined the site on the exact same date as you. Obviously RDT and WIAB were only a small part of an MGoEpidemic. #busted

And you have to reference "Three and Out".

Managing players, managing staff, doing the PR that comes with a high-level management job.
Those things cannot be delegated. Everything else can--there's probably some stuff you're good at that you keep, but you get to pick and choose. The management stuff, that's yours no matter what.
The guy is a dick.

The Everett Golson effect.

Was Notre Dame football 2012 really a Cinderella story and not a return to prominence? I think the answer is yes.

I think ND is here to stay but they won't fluke their way into a NC game again anytime soon.
March 27th, 2013 at 12:22 PM ^
Agreed. Kelly is a very good football coach (but a seriously crappy human being), so I don't think ND is going away anytime soon. However, they had the Devil's own luck this past season (much like OSU) and another trip to the MNC game is not that likely in the near future.
I keep hearing this but very good coaches don't have close calls against Purdue, BYU, and Pitt.
Not sure I get your point, they did win all of those games. You can't point to being 12-0 in the regular season as evidence the guy can't coach.
- Brigham Young 24, Michigan 17
- Purdue 31, Michigan 29
- Purdue 24, Michigan 21
- Purdue 16, Michigan 14
- Michigan 9, Purdue 6
- Michigan 20, Purdue 17
I still think Bo was a very good coach.

Hopefully he doesn't let the presence of actual facts get in the way of his opinion.
The 2012 ND football team was an augmented version of the 2011 Michigan football team.
Both overachieved (obviously ND had no business being 12-1, and we were a lofty 11-2), but were very solid squads. Honestly, if we had taken care of business against Iowa that year, we would have sat in the same position at 12-1.
They weren't a Cinderella story. They were the same ND team that usually goes 8-5, or 9-4; they just got an inordinate amount of lucky breaks last season.
March 27th, 2013 at 11:56 AM ^
Color me shocked.

Phork, what gives? Why are they leaving?
Its frustrating for sure, even going back to Lynch. Its amazing the power pussy has over kids. Ferguson, regardless of what Papa says, was falling on the depth chart, even behind some freshman. Work ethic was also up for debate.
Neal had a kid with his girlfriend that he has had since the 7th grade. Curious choices of schools in Cali vs Arizona where he was originally expected to sign.
Greenberry & Tee Sheppard are also curious cases. Greenberry flipped at the last second to Houston after telling the ND staff that Tee was headed to USC. Tee ended up at ND but he didn't have the required classes.
Apparently Gunner has no chest. Not a lot of info here.
March 27th, 2013 at 11:57 AM ^
To hell with notre dame!
March 27th, 2013 at 12:35 PM ^
Thanks for the laugh.
March 27th, 2013 at 12:00 PM ^
it's hard to blame the davonte neal transfer on kelly. guy just wants to be a good dad.
March 27th, 2013 at 12:04 PM ^
March 27th, 2013 at 12:05 PM ^
Word is Safety Elijah Shumate is transferring also
March 27th, 2013 at 12:28 PM ^
source?
March 27th, 2013 at 12:52 PM ^
I heard this too. I can't remember where. Here is a source though.
You win the internets today, Sir.
March 27th, 2013 at 12:52 PM ^
Highly doubt that. So unless you have a source I wouldn't count it.
March 27th, 2013 at 12:07 PM ^
because Gunner Keil left. Duh.
March 27th, 2013 at 12:10 PM ^
Notre Dame played above their ability this past season. I don't think they'll be a pushover, but I don't think that they are a top ten caliber team either
March 27th, 2013 at 12:27 PM ^
Surprising but not unfortunate. Hopefully Kelly sticks around
March 27th, 2013 at 12:29 PM ^
....as you know that NBC would be all over this story, had an interesting quote regarding Ferguson's departure:
"In Ferguson’s case, Jason Ferguson said some level of discomfort on the part of his son was the driving force behind the receiver’s decision, although no specifics were given."
Ferguson's dad apparently said that there were no issues with playing time or anything specific like that. The NBC story links to the ND site on 247Sports and goes into a little more detail (but not much).

March 27th, 2013 at 12:54 PM ^
Kelly's view on players transferring out: "This is a process every year we go through: You have some additions, you have some deletions," Kelly told the Chicago Tribune. "But we didn't miss a step."
So...nothing really important here. Some stay, some leave, they're just numbers...
March 27th, 2013 at 12:53 PM ^
March 27th, 2013 at 12:54 PM ^
They never got over the death of Te'o's girlfriend.
March 27th, 2013 at 12:57 PM ^
What are these "4 & 5 Star Wide Recievers" you speak of? I didn't know they made those any longer.
