Dear Saluki Players

want to talk football scavs, I love ND basketball, but ND is a football school my man.

I just looked at SIUs bball schedule and results from this year, and can you please tell me one real team they played and beat, I would like to hear it. Losing to Bradley, Evansville, who is Evansville???? They did get a big win over Va Tech this year however. SIU was not a good team, and they had a cake road to the sweet 16. Holy Cross and Va Tech are WEAK, if they would have played a real team they would have been done.

If you can't talk sports dahoss, go back to horse racing, it seems like the only thing you know. I've talked about all ND athletics yes, but I have placed it in the Sports Bar side and you come to read. Without people talking about their teams, what would this side be made of. I guess when ND loses (such as SIU) I should come on here and give my congratulations to the team so that I don't have to take sh1t for talking about them before the game, apparently that works.

Just be realistic.

I'm being realistic. SIU did play a good game tonight, I'm not doubting that. ND got upset in the 1st round, I'm obviously not doubting that. I'm saying, it's all about the draw, and when I saw ND was playing Winthrop I knew how dangerous they were. Now if I would have saw Holy Cross, I would have laughed as they moved on to the second round. You want to know why there are ND fans that argue as much as me, because of the millions and millions of ND haters like you!

I have been the biggest ND fan since I can remember. I love the movie Rudy, call me a Rudy all you want.I have been to numerious ND football and basketball games, and even a few hockey and baseball. I haven't missed watching a ND football game since I was 7. Everything about ND is special to me, but if your not a fan you can't understand it. Nothing can compare to the tradition of Notre Dame, I don't need to argue my point anymore.

you guys get on me and attack me about ND and are just like all the ND haters across the world, but I feel bad for you guys that you don't have a team with so much tradition to cheer for. I was just pointing out how much the feeling you get going to an ND game and walking around on the campus gives you compared to any other college. I've been to a lot of campuses, none compare to ND . That is my only point.

every program has down years, the good programs recover and rebuild, which is what ND is doing right now. Next year is no National Championship year in football as they are young, but in the next 2-6 years ND will have 3 National Championships. I guarentee Jimmy Claussen gets one for the irish.

I dont hate Notre Dame I think its a great school.
But ND best stay out of football conference play, they just dont get it done anymore. History and trends change. This school has continued its high academic standards, but football... bad now. Sorry but tell it like it is. Last National Championship was when....?

Who is Evansville may you ask? Evansville is the team that is 2 hrs away and is a conference rival. That was an easy prediction that UE would hold court at home and win against SIU. I even told Scavs that last Summer. Maybe ND should try to come down here and play. Its almost as bad as playing in Vandy and trying to win.

Who is Evansville? Evansville is the school that gave a Golf scholarship to a certain South Bend native back in the Spring of 1990, that ND never did once take a look his way (like he was really had them on their list of schools). Then as a Student Golfer, he ended being medalist the final year of the Burke Memorial Invitational in the Fall of 1990. Oh yes Burke Memorial, the former home of ND and last I knew was down to 9 holes due to needed land for more student housing. Then they built some some decent, but overpriced golf course on the other side of campus designed by Ben Crenshaw. You talked hockey, I talk Golf. If I had a shot at taking a look at past scores of the MCC Conference Tournament, I'm pretty sure this UE topped ND each time. Yes ND was in this conference at one time for certain sports. I believe also that this conference was filled with nothing but MID MAJORS!

By the way Holy Cross would have beaten ND. That was a bad draw for the Crusaders

If you don't think the Missouri Valley is an outstanding b-ball conference, you need help. Some years...not every year, I would almost put it on a par with the Big 10. They weren't far from having two sweet 16 teams...didn't Creighton take UNLV to overtime?? To answer your question, every team in the MVC is real.
