Just so everyone knows, OkieL was already discredited on the Sooners board Land Thieves. He lives with the daily dissonance that Notre Dame 'covered up' things that were in every newspaper and investigated by outside authorities.
 
Well, ND did sweep some camera kid's death under the rug.

Yeah, that is one of those, "shit happens" type of thing. Incredible that Kelly didn't get more heat for that. And I am big fan Kelly as a coach.
 
computer deleted my post right after Lenny Kukua discovered David Brandon's plot to go independent so he could keep Sparty, North Dakota, Ohio University of, and Creighton on the schedule.

Yea, I come to UConn boards to argue with Notre Dame fans. Get a grip man. I was never discredited at all. I posted the link from one of your own sites that confirms you said that you were going to play all the members of the Big East in Football and then proceded to never follow through with the majority of the league even though you had plenty of time to play all them members at least once. Completely lied to the conference. The funniest part is that you tried to schedule the games but instead of home and home, you demanded that other teams play you at a pro stadium and at South Bend. Completely 1 sided deal that no school should ever allow you to bend them over and screw. Sweetheart deals and backstabbing, standard bahavior. Suddenly Notre Dame could go schedule who they wanted instead of honoring thier word and helping the conference.
I also pointed out that Notre Dame was on the Big East expansion committee to secure the future of the conference, then proceded to leave the conference for another partial membeship in the ACC. Complete backstabbing and lies.
Then there are the stories that never were discussed during the NC game, even though the school knew that there was no Lennay/dead girlfriend.
As well as the botched so called investigaton that was even questioned by your own alumni but never handled correctly ultil weeks later, after the victim was dead.
I also believe the camera incident that ahs been mentioned sure seemed to pass without much negative press.
These are all not just made up stories like you want us to beleive.
Then there are the stories we are hearing from UConn.

Surely you realize UConn folks remember this as well as anybody as you had a knife in thier back twisting it over and over.

I think karma is giving you what you deserve tonight.

All you are doing is denying any wrongdoing, typical response from fanbases like yours and delusional PSU fans.
 
SIAP, I can't keep him straight from fellow trolls Buckaneer and X97. Now your BSing specifics.


The Big East never relied on a partial member to decide the conferences future. At least at one time ND didn't even have a vote on new members (not saying we deserved one). the only part of the argument with merit is that former AD Dr Kevin White unilaterally said that he wanted to play three Big East teams a year; we did shortly before and after we got rid of him.

That's not a deal, that's barely an agreement. If Savvy Jack announced he intended to play 5 Sun Belt teams a year, A. ND would start looking for a replacement B. The Sun Belt would have no deal unless pen met paper.

- It's not the University's job to make public statements about anybody's romantic trials. They just looked enough to confirm that Teo was not defrauding other people (he wasn't).

- The police and county attorney investigated the Seeburg incident. Conclusion? No sex and no crime.

- As much as I loathe linking to the Chicago Tribune, at least one family handles tragedy better than others http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/...acy-around-education-20140401,0,7196025.story

It's more about not helping the confernece, and doing what is best for you and stabbing fellow member schools in the back. If Notre Dame had been willing to do the same things they are doing for the ACC, the Big East would still be together. You played an instrumental role in the whole unraveling that clearly effected all the members of the Big East, mostly negative. To claim otherwise is simply not realistic. You did what was best for you and could care less how it screwed other schools. I think you will do the same thing in the ACC.

How many times did you play Louisville, West Virginia, Cinci, and UConn in football while you were in the Big East from 1995-2013??

I've discussed the other stuff too much already and I think it is rude to our hosts. These folks are smart enough to draw thier own conclusions with the evidence that is out there. If it doesn't have something to do with conference realignment we should probably let it go.

Apparently, their fans sweep it under the rug, too. Have to love college athletics.

Sorry, this may seem like a stalk by me because you and I were smack talking on another board - btw- nothing personal, not at all you closet BUG fan, which I know you are : ).

You're a bit naive to think ND wasn't covering up dirt. Really, you are. You can claim no punishment or publicly accounted wrongdoing, but I'm not buying it and those who don't, frankly don't want to admit it because that means something you root for has diminished - classic denial & quite Catholic like - yes, I'm definitely stereotyping here.

Well if they really covered it up then I wouldn't know about it ;)

But I do know they come down hard on players for things that would not be a problem elsewhere. C.f. Compare the concurrent careers of Maurice Clarett and Julius Jones.

What bugged me about ND more than anything was their vote in 2004. For a conference member with only 5 toes in, they should have withheld their vote instead of siding with the Catholic schools, because that vote more than anything lead to the dissolution of the conference. If ND had simply refrained from voting when clearly the other schools had a lot more at stake, the conference could have established more stable footing and perhaps survived on a $15m per school take from ESPN.

That vote by ND killed us.

As if Manti Te'o didn't lie to the administration... The problem here is that ND claims to live by a higher moral code. Clearly Kelly violates the coaching mission statement (I'll find it if you like) and Te'o the student code (I can also find that if you like).

Then there's the long line of poor behavior by Quarterbacks. They flirt with a very gray area often. These things happen, but ND has a way of explaining away most of it. And this is no exception.

Most Big 12 fans are great. They don't throw batteries or feces at you, don't heckle your wife, etc... OU has a great fan base who are extremely loyal. By far the most loyal fan base is Nebraska. Sold out every game for over 50 years, just sold 40k tickets to the spring game.

Lost some credibility with this post. Nebraska is not in the Big 12 - they joined the Big10 a few years ago (2011?)!!!

I'm just responding to your previous statement. Based on your own words...no, you do not know that.

Hey Joe,

You never did answer my question.

How many times did Notre Dame play UConn, Cinci, Louisville, and WVU while you were in the Big East from 1995 to 2013?

Why are you so concerned with me? Several posts all focusing on me personally. It's actually kinda weird and creepy. You should probably stop before you embarrass yourself with this weird obsession.

I've said it repeatedly, various boards: ND not only could have saved the Big East, it could have turned it into a powerhouse, big two sports: hoops & football.

They would have had their desired, national footprint for football recruiting, esp with VT and Miami in the fold.

In fact, had ND fully joined the Big East, it may have been the ACC desperately trying to protect itself from collapse & maybe PSU leaves the BIG.

Heck, there might even be a Big East hockey league had the above happened.

A school like Lville would have definitely ended up in such a Big East & perhaps UCF or USF.

I may be a BIG fan, in terms of conference loyalty, but I really miss the Original Big East - it was easily my second favorite conference, esp in basketball.

We wouldn't even need ND to join. All it would take was for ND to get out of the way.

Back then I was a little sympathetic with the Catholics, but after what the Catholics pulled last year, when they tried to take everything and force UConn out, I look back on 2004 and realize that the football schools should have been ruthless and shown no sympathy at all.

And you just keep going. I have no idea what you are trying to accomplish but whatever it is, you failed miserably. You just keep following me around posting the same thing over and over. If you want to believe that I dont' know what conference Nebraska is in fine. Believe it. I really don't care what you think. But get off my jock and stop following me around. It's way past weird at this point.

Your internet grammar police act is pathetic to say the least. Keep up the good work.

Sorry but that is pure scapegoating. The old Big East failed because crappy leadership did not adapt to the changing world of college sports. Not because of something a partial member could or didn't do.

Do your own research. I recall attending a WVU game and meeting a group of Husky fans at Foxwoods who said they had a great time in SB. UL and Cinci were late to the party. But you should have asked.
