I get it bc it’s the most recent game. But somehow ND making the playoffs (which they deserved) & losing is the worst thing to happen in the College Football Playoffs

College coaches can u just be straight up with kids? Early signing is NOT just for eary enrollees. If you are shopping a kids spot...tell him! You talk about you are trying to shape MEN on & off field. Well MEN look each other in the eye and keep it real!

Serious question bc I see a lot of folks bashing kids for transferring as “scared to compete”: how long should a kid stay and compete and NOT play? Just bc kid can’t or doesn’t play at one school doesn’t mean kid can’t play ... last 2 Heisman winners transferred 🤷🏾♂️

Annoys me to no end when grown men get on social media and talk down to young athletes and implore young men to demonstrate actions or qualities that they themselves don’t demonstrate. I hate “do as I say not as I do” people.

My last comment and I pose this question to
@NCAA
and their committee/council members making these decisions in the tower … Imagine how Tez Walker is feeling after seeing this story. Good for McDonald … but what about Tez?!
Just gonna leave this here…they’ll be plenty of opinions. McDonald originally denied by NCAA, now has gained eligibility on appeal. Similar landscape as Tez Walker.

We usually share the Highs but trust there have been just as many (if not more) Lows. The game is rewarding but it also takes a toll on players Physically & Mentally. So when I see my son still smiling & expressing his love for the game I don’t take it for granted.

HS players here is a word of advice: Learn to be a max effort PRACTICE player. In HS u can be a “gamer” and still get on field bc of superior talent. In college, “gamers” ride the pine and whine about where they are on depth chart. Everybody is talented.
