I'll never understand why people from around here have a hard on for ND. They haven't won **** since 1988. Just a bunch of old ***** reliving their glory days and brainwashing their kids and grandkids. That's pretty much the best way I could put it. Chicago has never really been a hotbed for D1 talent especially at the P4 schools so this is new territory for me.
I knew Lightfoot was going to be a player coming in for Miami since he's from a CPS school and those guys play with extra intensity. Scott I wasn't high on to begin with. Sources from the area told me he was soft and got bullied by undersized OL. But that has been put to rest with the year he had in 2025.
One school Mario needs to key in on is Mt Carmel. Jordan Lynch is their HC and he's a former Heisman finalist at NIU. These guys and East St Louis are the two best schools in the state and pump out dudes every year.
