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.

Doesn’t change the point.
Coverage of Notre Dame recruiting has always been lackluster and wanting and we generally operate in a black hole of information other than a few/handful of exceptions.
If you want to hammer Brey on the final results, fine by me.
But I think hammering him and the staff because we have a terrible view into recruiting (a complete 180 from football), doesn't make sense.
I mean look at this thread. We went from 1 to several names and offers and contacts.
We just don't know what the staff is doing, because it's not well covered, and we have to rely on other outlets for information.
Judge the results. But I think "no news is bad news in recruiting" doesn't apply here. No news means no one is covering it.
