I need ESPN to come up with a reason to commemorate the ND game so we can have Cleveland Gary come up to midfield at coin toss to tell the ND side with straight face that it wasn’t a fumble.

The refs on the field mistakenly thought it was 4th and goal from the 11 (instead of 4th and 7) and gave the ball over to Notre Dame on downs. That's a fact. That's what happened.

Went from the next Rusty Medearis to Denny Fortney

But maybe it means the talent has been upgraded overall at that position...

The kid was a TF last year & didn't look totally out of place. He missed much of spring recovering from injury so in true CIS fashion, everyone wants to call him a JAG because he did not make the bank which mentions, at most, 10% of the rooster. We don't have to crown him the next Rusty nor do we have to pull the rip cord on him. He has a very good chance of being a productive player in his career.

We've been earning interest at the Bank, so it's time to make a withdrawal. Here's the latest from camp:

- The scrimmage was a success. The team is healthy and the people around the program are as confident as I can remember. Everybody thinks we have a good team and it's genuine.

Three freshmen are making a major leap forward and will challenge for immediate playing time. Bryce Fitzgerald has been a playmaker since he got here, and he did the dirty work at safety in the scrimmage. He's one of the best athletes we've had in the secondary in several years. Malachi Toney is special and reliable beyond his years. I'd be shocked if he's not a major contributor. Josh Moore has a wide catch radius and earned trust from the first team on Sunday. He's trending in the right direction.

- Overall, there are a lot of receivers making a case for playing time. Coaches are excited about the group as a whole, and they're confident in Carson Beck's ability to spread the ball without locking on.

- Much of the focus on the defensive line has been on the four 5-stars we've signed in the past couple years. One in particular is really starting to accelerate- DE Marquise Lightfoot. The pass rush in general has been performing well, led by Rueben Bain and Akheem Mesidor.

- One source on OL Samson Okunlola: "The light has come on." I expect him to play real snaps this year.

- The corner group has stood out all camp, but one name continues to draw praise- CB Damari Brown. He is healthy and poised to play significant snaps. Ethan O'Connor also has opened eyes with his ability to take the ball away.

- The staff is preparing to be extremely aggressive in the flip market. They hope to use early success on the field, strong relationships, and financial incentives to flip players. Some of the key targets include RB Derrek Cooper, WR Tristen Keys, S Justice Fitzpatrick, DL Nolan Wilson, DT James Johnson, and DB Jett Washington.

OJ played due to Brown’s injury
Lyle was 3rd string until injuries
Lofton played some but didn’t have a big impact compared to “he is potentially our best RB and athlete”
Pruitt didn’t sniff the field likely due to tweener…I think he should have played more.
McConathy didn’t produce in the few games he played.

We need Toney like we needed X.
We need a big 50/50 WR like AR. (Moore)
We need a speed rusher. Pickett, Lowe, Lightfoot … don’t want to see Bryant or McConathy.
We need nickel to be a solid backup.

We need the coaches to hit on more kids than miss.

What's this BS narrative about Lofton being the best RB on the team.....stop with that. If Lofton is/was the best RB on the team than 1 why is he not a RB and 2 why did we need to go out and get the best FCS RB in the portal. Some of our fans just go with these dumb as narratives because it's the cool thing to say!
