Don't be logical, just look at the bottom line. How much money has been raised/donated under his watch for the Athletic Dept. He gets/takes credit, right or wrong. Until the big money guys say "no mas", he'll stay in place.

There are plenty of AD's with integrity, Smith is not among them, that's his "job security".?I don?t take vacations. I don?t get sick. I don?t observe major holidays. I?m a jackhammer.?Comment

According to an "insider" -- and I believe him -- Smith sent out an e-mail yesterday to "big donors" and BoT members explaining things. It was not well-received. My understanding is that amongst this relatively small group of folks, he received numerous less than courteous replies -- and by less than courteous, I mean making a longshoreman blush. Fingers crossed -- he's done.Don't be logical, just look at the bottom line. How much money has been raised/donated under his watch for the Athletic Dept. He gets/takes credit, right or wrong.

Is he going to be M? I know he's not Diggs, but is he still a quality WR? Don't know much about him.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

Meh 3 star on rivals. Supposedly has raw size and speed. Almost certainly choosing "M" over Iowa and Northwestern.Comment

Thanks. And here I thought Coach Fickell had horded all the meh 3* WR recruits in the midwest.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

Chesson is more than a 'meh' prospect; he's rated as a high 3-star or 4-star among most all recruiting services; his highlights are pretty impressive.
He doesn't have elite speed or athletic ability but has plenty of both to go with his good size. He's more Junior Hemingway than Daryl Stonum in athletic ability. I've been liking him more and more after seeing more of him after hearing reports from his senior season, he'll stay as a strong 3-star at most recruiting sites...
re: Armani Reeves... M will know a lot more if he takes another visit to AA, if he does M is pretty serious in recruiting him and not just taking him as a Plan B type in case Yuri Wright goes elsewhere. Carmen Williams LB was a guy I liked quite a bit early in the recruiting process but M filled up on LB'ers so fast that they couldn't take him.Comment

re: Yuri Wright; supposedly 'amazed' by visit to ND. He was pretty impressed at his first visit to AA too but not quite amazed. M will get another chance with Yuri Wright when he visits Jan 13th; a huge visit weekend for M with a majority of the top recruits left on the board recruiting taking an official that weekend.Comment

Nobody really wanted Braylon Edwards either. He was a 3 star.
No, I'm not saying Yuri Wright is going to be another Braylon.
I'd settle for another Jason Avant."in order to lead America you must love America"Comment
