I’ve seen enough.
Notre Dame is not SNIFFING a national championship anytime soon.
We were sold a bag of lies this offseason. We have no juice at the skill positions on offense and CJ Carr was reliant on the threat of Price/JLove.
Might win 9 or 10 games because the schedule’s a joke but this Notre Dame team is not what we were told. Can’t believe I bought the hype.
Good night Irish nation, buckle in for a long season.

Notre Dame wins 41-13
This is the worst 20+ point win I’ve witnessed in my life as a Notre Dame fan.
Do not let the final score fool you. There’s so much work to be done, both offensively and defensively.
I love the university of Notre Dame. This was an embarrassing performance. Onto Rice ☘️

I’ll admit I’m late to the party here as an early supporter of 7 divisions. I let it play out for a couple years & I’ve done a full 180.
Preaching to the choir for most of you, but there’s teams playing at Regionals this week that wouldn’t make it out of Sectionals in 4 divisions.
Going to the 9 Regional games at BGSU was one of the best weeks of the year for me for the last 15 years—my excitement level for the 9 games there this week is nonexistent. Some of these games I’d put 30-pt spreads on.
District Final Saturday used to be the best day of the tournament, now it’s littered with blowouts. OHSAA has completely ruined it.

The lens for the tournament has to be readjusted. "District" doesn't carry the same meaning as it once did (only by word). In the 4-division format, the week of district play started with 256 teams (now 442). Regional play is similar to making a district 2 years ago.

If the @OHSAASports is determined to stay with 7 division format (they shouldn’t, it’s awful) and all of the districts are now better team hosts sectionals, then it’s time to only let top 96 teams in.There’s no “tournament experience” in getting running clocked in a road game🤦🏻♂️
The seven-division format remains a mess. A dive into the numbers and look ahead to the district semifinals with these #OHSAA boys basketball tournament takeaways:

Notre Dame should have and COULD HAVE given Al Golden a 10 year deal worth 5 Mil/per.

Man. Don’t know how to explain it other than shock. Words cannot express the pain of this letdown. The frustration is unfathomable. I’ve worked my whole life to get to this moment and this is how it ends? Makes no sense.
Now that I’ve gotten surgery, I wish I could count the number of times people will tell me I’m going to “come back stronger”. What a cliche lol, this shit sucks. My foot feels like dead weight fam. But what’s hurting most I think is my mind. Feel like I’m rambling, but I know this is something I’ll look back on when I’m through this, as something I’m proud I fought through. It feels good to let this shit out without y’all seeing the kid ugly cry.
At 25, I’ve already learned that God never gives us more than we can handle. I know I’ll come out on the other side of this a better man and a better player. And honestly, right now, torn Achilles and all, I don’t regret it. I’d do it again, and again after that, to fight for this city and my brothers. For the chance to do something special.
Indy, I’m sorry. If any fan base doesn’t deserve this, it’s y’all. But together we are going to fight like hell to get back to this very spot, and get over this hurdle. I don’t doubt for a second that y’all have my back, and I hope you guys know that I have yours. I think Kobe said it best when in this same situation. “There are far greater issues/challenges in the world then a torn achilles. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, find the silver lining and get to work with the same belief, same drive and same conviction as ever.” And that’s exactly right. I will do everything in my power to get back right.
My journey to get to where I am today wasn’t by happenstance, I’ve pushed myself every day to be great. And I will continue to do just that. The most important part of this all, is that I’m grateful. I’m grateful for every single experience that’s led me here. I’m grateful for all the love from the hoop world. I don’t “have to” go through this, I get to go through this. I’m grateful for the road that lies ahead. Watch how I come back from this. So, give me some time, I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton.
