Without winning a National Championship since 1988 ND is still the most loved and hated team in the country. Georgia set an attendance record when we went down there. Notre Dame may not want to get into bidding wars with other schools but they could. The money and interest are there. The administration will never want this to be a "football factory" but they need to be in the hunt for the best players.

If Notre Dame drops out of the Top Ten repeadly because they refuse to adapt to what is now the Wild West so be it. They have the name, brand & alums to make this work in their favor. I'll have one eye on the Irish and the other on LSU. Kelly didn't just leave for money. He wanted the talent to win a National Championship. We'll see what Tiger Nation does with NIL.

Asking ND to pay for players is asking them to cheat. That is stupid. I will accept your apology.
