I found this thread as I was perusing various sites. I saw nothing like this anywhere else, and I post it because people need to see first hand where some of our most vile criticism and venom actually originates.
(And take the time to read their own Board Rules on rumor mongering as well as speculation on personal issues of ND student athletes).
Dislike for the coach and AD on certain sites now appears to be trickling down to players who have given their best. Players sustain hits and injuries that this guy knows nothing about as he sits in front of computer screen smearing a Notre Dame student who has no way to defend himself.
He makes terrible claims about a kid in our family, and then when challenged, he refuses to reveal his sources and unilaterally tells a questioning poster to "STFU". He also warns the questioning poster of "Board Rule #4 which prohibits criticizing a Board Ops.
We all should be aware of who is attacking our guys in public, and where it originates.

I cant think of any board site...not one.. where a board op would not only would demean a player but then tell a responding board member to STFU!!
Absolutely no slap on the hand, no deleting of the comment...nothing.
I dont care how sensitive a person is, if you cant take the criticism then don't post.
The board OP who made the comment should no better and ak like a man.
Just my 2 cents worth.

An alum who actually witnessed what our players go through for our entertainment would never feel like attacking them.

Generally the posters to that board are positive.
The few that stepped up to say anything about him specifically personally dissing a player( which used to be against their rules) were attacked by him. We all know that their "rules" only apply when they want to apply them. And their rules are only applied when a poster isn't kowtowing to the company line or isn't one of their "made" guys.
That specific board moderator routinely tosses anyone who has the temerity to come too close to questioning/disagreeing with a post he makes. You better have your sources straight even though all he has to say is "I stand by my post" without any attribution (because HE doesn't have to) as he derides guys who called him on his bullshit. He'd cosey up real well with James Comey ala" I can say anything because I have a greater purpose."
That site is what it is. And everyone who follows the various ND sites know how pathetic that site has become.
Next thing up for them: a post from the big guy explaining why one of his bud's post we perfectly fine, because well...ya know...he knows and I know he knows and it is fine for one of our board ops to smear whoever he wants. And anyone who doesn't like it can f*&k off. Quite the clown parade.
someone with church bell balls over there would take a stand and blow the fuckin board up. It’s toxic, punitive, patently unfair, biased and just wrong. Stay away, people.

Link wouldn’t open at first but he is over the line based on what I just read.
He said some awful shit about a player and then claimed state secrets privilege on the basis. Massive turd.

because they are unhappy about how their supposed team won a game.
Something other than a board operator of a supposed ND football website who spreads a rumor fed to him by an insider "secret source" that this ND player is soft both physically and mentally (the internet is a rather large and permanent place and aside from the humiliation of one of the ND student family, it also is an unprovable comment that might haunt him professionally, and certainly will with any future injury no matter how legitimate).
Hopefully we actual ND fans won't won't be talking about that anyways.
Any complaints that you wish to register about "Savvy", "Shanty", jumbotrons, or field turf while your here?
