This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Class of 2001 checking in. by OITLinebacker
Never had a NC winning coach in Football since we stepped foot on campus in 1997. I think the class of 2000 (or was in 1999) managed to get out without winning a NC in a single sport not even fencing? If it weren't for Muffet, Ruth, and company pulling out the NC in WBB I think 2001 would've joined them in that infamy.
I thought for sure when I got to campus in 1997 that I would see ND win a football NC while I was on campus. 22 years later and despite working on campus since graduation, still no joy.
On a similar note, I saw the last game in ND stadium that featured a #1 ranked ND team (BC 1993, ouch) and I never did dream then that it was the last time....
