2 Down....1 more to go!

1st.........Golden Tate
2nd........Harrison Smith
Next.......Chris Donald!

I know what your gonna say....Golden & Harrison are over rated. They wouldn't help the Vols....maybe on special teams.

I hear everytime when the Irish pluck talented players from another state.

Maybe Phat Phil can keep Chris Dnald in state...but don't count on it.

I'll be ROFL when everyone finds out just how overrated Jimmy Clausen is. Chris will stay in-state and go to school on The Hill. I wish this irishpacker would go back to Indiana.

I am not from Indiana, second you could be right about Jimmy Clausen but I am not worried about that.

Just remember this name, Demetrious Jones.

Charlie will always be able to recruit QBs who can win the big game. (I will let you figure out what that means)

Are we supposed to be guessing who the big time QBs will be or when the first big time win will be?

If Charlie Weis did that he needs to go to jail. That is illegal. That's is no way to recruit kids.

Funny you make fun of "Phat Phil." I'd say Weis has got, what...75 pounds on Fulmer?

As far as Smith, I would have loved to have him as a commit, but he seems a little slow for a UT safety..I figured we'd work him in somewhere, though.

As far as Tate: I'm not overly concerned we lost him. I think UT offered b/c he was in-state. I mean, the kid had to work just to get an offer from ND. Not a huge loss to miss out on him...

Donald, on the other hand, is a UT caliber player. Speed, size...the kind of person we want. Losing him would be a big hit down the road.

wood and irish, what are you're guys thoughts on getting taken behind the woodshed by LSU? I'm guessing that after getting embarrassed by Mich and USC (the only good teams you're soft team faced this year), it'll be a familiar feeling, yes?

Ohhh. I get it. You're a Pats fan because Weiss came from there.

Ohhh. So you knew after being with the Pats he would coach at ND.

Got the upcoming lotto numbers. You know what they say. If you don't support the troops. You're a bastard.

Smith would have been nice. Not really overrated though may be a tweener(perfect for the ND system).

Tate is no big loss. We wanted him for DB and/or WR and I personally feel that we filled those needs with higher caliber players than Golden. We never pursued him hard.

Donald would be a huge loss, but isn't going to be a loss. I'd take the commitment of Donald anyday over the commitment of the other 2 combined. There is a reason that Donald would likely start next year for ND while the other two, at best, will be sophomore starters.

What is with all the ND trolls all of a sudden? Don't you guys have a Notre Dame board you can go to?

Or maybe you can go talk trash with fans of the team that you are actually playing in your bowl game. Or are you too afraid of talking trash about a team you know is about to hand you a major league butt kicking?

This is the VolNation, not the IrishNation.
