A Shift in the Landscape Well, all quiet on all fronts, really... Once again, as has been the case since the early signing period was instituted a few cycles ago, Notre Dame's recruiting class was all but wrapped up in December. In fact everyone's recruiting class was more or less wrapped up in December; of the [...]

I'm a broken record on this subject, I know. Every year it pains me how short the college football season is and now we have 222 days from today until the 2022 season kicks off with week 0 games. This 2021 college football season while still a bit strange did feel like much more of [...]
