Jon Gruden Calls Colt McCoy 215 Pounds Of Tungsten Potassium Nitrate
I like extremely enthusiastic people, even when they're occasionally full of shit, which explains my fondness for Ted Nugent, Gus Johnson, a bulldog riding a skateboard, and Jon Gruden. Gruden is expert at glowering into cameras, doing mundane daily activities in nearly orgasmic ecstacy, and...
Colt McCoy: Smarter Than An Apostle, Dumber Than An Okie
The Wonderlic scores have been leaked and when something like this happens, I pretty much always blame the British and Germans. Yes, the Zimmerman Telegram still burns in my memory. I suppose you'd forgotten? Anyway, what the Wonderlic definitively proves is an individual's intelligence. There...
What Do You Know… Newton Can Play Football
Something shocking happened over the weekend. Apparently, Cam Newton can play football with the big boys. After enduring months of scrutiny from guys calling themselves draft experts, Newton went out on Saturday and looked like well, the top pick in the NFL draft. Watching coverage of the Carolina...
They Could Have Been Great: Sizing Up the Notre Dame Class of 2007
The 2007 class wasn’t supposed to be in the discussion as the "worst ever" to attend Notre Dame. Coming off two straight BCS bowl games in the first two years of Charlie Weis’ tenure, no one could have believed this class would be closing out its four years in South Bend with a 21-26 record to...
Outside the Irish Huddle: Stanford Has Their Way With Notre Dame
There are two facts that we now need to face. One, the game against Stanford was not close. Two, this season has not gone the way many thought it would. The debate now turns to whether this is the low point of the season or if we still have not seen the bottom of this disappointment. With the...
The Early Season Dayne Crist Report Card
It’s been a wild first two games for Notre Dame’s new starting quarterback in Dayne Crist and yesterday’s loss to Michigan was full of incredible highs and heart breaking lows. Before the season began the consensus out of South Bend was that much of the offense and team success was riding on...

The week in news- Rules, Investigations and Gruden Smacks Clausen
I’m a day late in getting to the college football stories I found the most interesting this week. I spent the bulk of this week flying back and forth across the country to the West Coast where I am in the process of setting up the new OFD headquarters. That 48 hour little whirlwind tour was like...
Irish Pro Day- News and Notes
Notre Dame had 14 players audition for NFL Scouts today and it sounds like a few of them made the most of it. While Jimmy Clausen and Golden Tate appear to be locks to go high the rest of these players are hoping to be late round pickups or to catch on somewhere as free agents. Best of luck to all...
The week in news- Pariahs, Malcontents and Power Hour
In the midst of March Madness, St. Patrick's Day, house guests, nice weather outside and a host of other distractions I still managed to come across quite a few interesting college football stories this week. Here we go. Mike Leach and Craig James were apparently in the same room this week and...
