...but Michigan warrants an exception.

If a kid chooses Alabama or Clemson or Texas over ND and ND folks make comments like “dodged a bullet” or “40 year mistake” it’s just bitterness and pettiness by the ND fan and an objectively bad look.

If the same happens with respect to a kid who chooses Michigan, it’s simply a statement of fact. Michigan sucks. Groucho Marx said he wouldn’t want to join any club that would have him as a member. Similarly, I don’t want any kid who would choose Michigan and you shouldn’t either.

Bama and Clemson are Nat’l C’ship machines, so yes, any

football player would want to go there. Ex. A: Irv Smith sent his own kid to Bama. Because it’s Bama.

Michigan is ... Michigan. Goofball, ineffectual head coach, delusional fans (who booed Tom Brady when he played, p.s.), and just blech.

ND Football makes ND Men, the kind that get drafted despite bad seasons or crushing Playoff losses.

So, ya. Dream small, kid.
