In reply to Mike Coffey. Pay no mind to Mr. Coffey. He only blames the administration for the ND basketball woes.

yeah, I’m not buying admissions. The patriots are playing with 18 undrafted free agents. When I hear the players announced, most are from non-traditional schools and were probably 3 stars coming out. Need smart/disciplined players that make plays and coaches to put them in the right spot with system and strategy.

In reply to Aaron. The prevailing problem, since Holtz “left,” has been coaching. Period.

Because it is #3! Ever since ND went to stricter requirements for enterance almost comparable to Ivy schools the football program has never been the same. So like I ve said before when did ND ever accept being an average football program? Why can’t we get kids like Bama, Oregon, FSU and others to be an elite? We have the name, when are we going to put a product on the field? 1988 seems like ages qgo!!!!!!

In reply to frank abruzzino. What leads you to believe it's #3. Brian Kelly was allowed to accept a verbal commitment from (let alone recruit) a player who wasn't yet eligible under NCAA rules.

Tom Carter how I rember..what a great player. I believe he left a year early for NFL ? Very quick . The problems are more than Tommy…We had a very low scoring offence in 2012. Short-passes across the middle have killed us all year. Hope springs eternal..It is either the coaching or players or administration policies that prevents us from having elite teams. My money is on #3. GO ND
