No you’re fine. I took out some completely unrelated posts and now I’m seeing ND threads
You may be seeing them because ND was in the running for AP, what I posted is a natural progression, cause and effect of winning this recruit and the continued decline of what was a once great rivalry. One that most of us had as our most important opponent of the year. What I have read to me boils down to our past respect for the ND team and program. I think we all miss what once was while being overjoyed at once again beating them by landing AP.
 
Should I remove the roster graphic and put it in a new post?
I for one can not get enough of the scholarship grid. Absolutely it fits in a new commit thread. I wouldn't care if it was in every thread.
 
Please don’t get me wrong. I am a card carrying, charter member of the hate ND club...well, at the very least always eager to wallow in schadenfreude over the multiple disappointments of their over-entitled fans. But, truth to tell, the degree to which their program has descended is a bit disappointing to me. I kinda want them to be at least sufficiently decent to be worth hating instead of the pathetic state in which they now find themselves. Niele can neither coach nor recruit. I’ll miss what at least once qualified as a rivalry.
ND made a big mistake, huge, by not going after the Marquette coach. Her team is well coached and she looks to have a very pleasant manner which will probably resonate with recruits and her players. She has already shown that she can quickly make a team a winner, as she did at Miami (OH) and quickly at Marquette. Think what she could do if she was recruiting at a school with a great Women's BB history. They really needed to get Ayanna and N. Ivey couldn't pull it off.

Add Anna, Aubrey, Amari and Azzi to become the “A” Team. Let’s start a new alphabet of players to recruit.
In two years add Ayanna to the remaining "A" players, AG, AM, AE, AC, AD and and you might have a team that could win the NCAA, especially since that group would have all positions covered! (Sorry Paige and Nika, you would have to change your names to make that roster!)
 
Bills Fan - people forget ND went into a deep dive after the 2001 NC and wasn't a contender until 2011. Never even made the BE final or the Elite8 of the NCAA. And they have depended on some really important transfers in recent years.

Ayanna was a big recruiting disappointment for them, but we have had them as well in the not too distant past including one on the ND roster right now. New coach, new system - it may take a few years.
