Academic standards suck when it comes to sports (cause most of these athletes are dumb as a box of rocks), but its what makes going to ND and playing football for them what it is.

Are you serious? Do u remember when Randy Moss was signed, sealed and delivered for ND after FSU dropped him. Holtz had no choice but to drop him after a marijuana arrest AFTER his arrest for aggravated assault that cost him a ride at FSU. Do you think those "student-athletes" at ND carry the same grade point average as the rest of the student body at ND? Well they don't. And they don't graduate every athlete that puts on a uniform for ND. ND is a wonderful school with a great tradition. But the truth today is that they wet the bed whenever they hit the national stage at the end of the year when the games count. And don't bring up that hockey crap either. Nobody cares. this thread was about SIU and the gutty effort they gave tonight. Scavs has posted all season about their efforts and was giving them a good sendoff. Don't belittle SIU's accomplishments with the nonperformance exhibited yet again by ND.
