Why Notre Dame is the Most Delusional Program is Sports! “Truth”

"There was a time when this actually meant something bruh."

Christian Nestell Bovee once said, “No man is happy without a delusion of some kind. Delusions are as necessary to our happiness as realities.” Bodhidharma gave it to us like this, “The ignorant mind, with its infinite afflictions, passions, and evils, is rooted in the three poisons. Greed, anger, and delusion.” Carl Sagan put it where the goats could get it when he spit, “For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.”

Well playas…somebody needs to tell the duns at Notre Dame that because they are as delusional as they come. There are many football programs that think that they are better than they actually are but none more delusional than the University of Notre Dame. The good people in South Bend think that their program is still relevant in the world of college football, when it simply isn’t. There are many issues facin’ this historic program that has allowed it to crumble right before our eyes. The mystique of Notre Dame simply no longer exists bruh. They want to compete for a national title every year but don’t realize that their greed and arrogance keeps gettin’ in the way.

Irish, you either want the NBC contract and keep all of the money or you want to play in the Final Four and possibly the national title game. You can’t have both. By continuin’ to be an independent you put your team at a constant disadvantage. If by chance they lose just one game (and God forbid it’s an early loss), they have absolutely nothin’ to play for the rest of the season because they aren’t in a conference. There is no conference title to win. It’s either all or nothin’ at Notre Dame and how do you sell that to an 18 year old recruit? They need to join the ACC like the rest of their team sports – and then they’ll have a great shot at gettin’ to the Final Four because of the potential bein’ a conference champion could open the door. They  finally learned in 2010 that they needed to water down that schedule a bit to give themselves a chance at competin’ nationally with the other big boys.

The Fightin’ Irish wants to be an academic powerhouse and a football powerhouse at the same time. You can’t be both unless you decide to move into the Ivy League bruh. ND can’t get the players that the state schools have access too. When you look at the top 150 recruits in the country, the Irish can only talk to about 30 of them because of the academic requirements. Other schools like Michigan, Texas, Alabama, Ohio St etc. can talk to all of them and will sign maybe 12 or 13 of them every year. Now what happens when ND shows up to play one of them and they’ve got 60(12×5 yrs of recruitin’ for example) of the best and the Fightin’ Irish only have 3? They’re down 21 points before they even get off of the bus bruh.

I know what you’re saying, “Well, Duke is able to do it in basketball.” You’re absolutely right… but they only have to recruit three players a year. In the game of football you have to find 25 players a year. That’s a much harder task. Keep in mind success breads success and the Irish simply don‘t have any. I can hear Irish fans screaming, “We’ve won 11 national titles, 7 Heisman Trophies and have produced 95 All-Americans.” I know that bruh, but the kid that you’re recruitin’ doesn’t know that. A dun comin’ out of high school now is 17 or 18 years old and wasn’t even born when you won your last title in 1988.

Additionally, the Fightin’ Irish have to be able to recruit the elite(top 150) African-American athlete. They thought that ole dull Paul Hornung (ND 1956 Heisman Trophy winner) was some crazy old dude a few years ago when he told them the same thing. The administration simply dismissed it because they’ve been able to get a few like Golden Tate and Michael Floyd over that past several years. However, they need a roster full of them like everyone else in the country. The reason it’s so difficult for ND to get these players is because of the lack of diversity on ND’s campus. For the most part, the only African American students on campus are the athletes. There are very few black non-athletes on campus. Primarily because it costs more than $67,000 per year to attend. Not very many families can afford that price tag and those who can, don’t necessarily want to send their kids to Notre Dame.

The majority of folks with that type of bread would rather send their children to the prestigious, Historically Black Colleges and Universities like Morehouse, Spellman, Hampton or Howard – clearly not Notre Dame bruh. Because of the lack of diversity on campus, players will continue to be reluctant to go to South Bend. There has to be a life outside of football for players to connect to. If there aren’t other students that look like them they won’t come.

I hear you asking,  “How did they get the top African-American players in the 1970’s, ’80’s & early ’90’s?” Listen up bruh…durin’ that period of time ND meant something because they were a powerhouse comin’ out of the ’40’s through the ’60’s when blacks couldn’t attend predominately white institutions. So when the opportunity presented itself, brothers took advantage of it. Notre Dame was where many kids wanted to be because of the national appeal and TV exposure. Now everybody is on TV and has national appeal because of the plethora of channels showcasin’ college football now. You don’t have to go to South Bend to play on TV in this day and age.

Let me put it where the goats could get it. In order to win, you’ve got to go where the best players are, and that’s down South or out West to California. That’s a problem for Notre Dame because it‘s in the South Bend, In. where it’s cold and snows in winter.  Let’s say a kid does decide to play up north. He’ll more likely go to Columbus or Ann Arbor before he goes to South Bend. Why? Because he’s at least seen them win in his lifetime and there are more people on campus that look like him. That’s real talk!

So when they eventually fire Brian Kelly, and they will, just like Lou Holtz, Bob Davey, Ty Willingham and Charlie Weis before him. The administration at some point needs to understand that it’s still not the coaches fault bruh, it’s their fault! Stop me when I start lyin’!

Playas Thesaurus: 

1) Spit: verb – to say

2) Dun: noun – the person in question, dude, guy, etc. It’s whoever I’m talkin’ about and its non-gender specific.

3) Put it where the goats can get it: verb phrase – to make it as elementary as possible. To put it at ground level so everyone can understand it.

I’d choose to apply certain together with the content on my own weblog regardless of whether you do not mind. Natually I’ll offer you a link in your internet weblog. Several thanks sharing.

  12. Hi there! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick shout out and say I genuinely enjoy reading your articles. Can you suggest any other blogs/websites/forums that cover the same topics? Thank you so much!

  13. Jay, check your facts on ND. Plenty of minorities on campus Asian, Hispanic and African American. I know we were punished in 2012 at the BCS Championship Game but we are relevant compared to the multiple public university programs that belong to conferences that have not made it to the BCS Championship game. I would rather strive for perfection and deserve to be there as an undefeated team than be questionable as a one or two loss team who is there just because they won their division and then conference Championship .
