I didn't know about this. Fuck ResLife.

First Yeatman and now Fauria. One kid absolutely loved ND, the other was a combination football/lacrosse player and ND should have a huge advantage over every other school in the country with a kid who plays that combination of sports. There are only 11 other schools in the country that play both FBS football and Division I lacrosse, and athletically speaking, all of those schools should be at a significant disadvantage to ND, either in football (Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, Syracuse, Virginia), in lacrosse (Ohio State, Penn State) or in both (Air Force, Army, Navy, Rutgers).

True story: back in the day, a friend of mine streaked around the North Quad on campus. For a pot of money a bunch of us had chipped in (I think it wound up being somewhere in the neighborhood of $200-$300). Fortunately for him, he had the foresight to put a bandanna over his face before doing it. None of us were going to narc on him, and no one else could ID him.

To answer Seer's question, OL is probably the weakest position on the team right now, so I doubt you'll get much if any help in that regard.

I feel bad for Fauria, but there was more to it than streaking. There was a pattern of behavior, and he was warned more than once. Thant being said, ND needs to come out of the dark ages on this type of shit.

I've been taking a bath on one of the ND boards for defending his decision. I spoke with the writer for the LA daily news who first reported the story and when he spoke with fauria he said it was all a big joke and he was a fun loving kind of guy. the holier than thou people on the ND board are a bunch of assholes calling him a pussy and he should stay around and take his punishment like a man. fuck you. the school screwed him over and he made a decision which he felt was best for him. good luck to him at UCLA.

It's funny because I spoke to my buddy at UCLA and he said they're in desperate need for D-lineman as is ND......and O-lineman. they may think about turning him into an OT. He did play DE/OLB in high school and a 6'7" guy on the outside would make it difficult for a QB to throw over that reach.

A 6-7 guy that weighs 250+ lbs would be considered a nice blocking tight end. He could even rumble for a few yards, turn around and catch a pass or two. Like the possibility of D-E though....

He's more than just a blocking TE. The kid can move very well for his size. Had ND not signed Kyle Rudolph last year, Fauria would have been the starter and pulled in about 30 passes. He's a stud.

So Killian, you've got time to post about CFB but not manage your FBB team?

Why the fuck even bother spending almost a month drafting a team when you obviously had no intention of taking part? You did the same shit last year.

This had better be good.

Fuck you. I don't have to explain shit to you. I lost my job and didn't have internet access for over a month besides my phone, and I can't get on the yahoo baseball page. Plus, it wasn't on the top of my mind, paying my mortgage was.

So again, fuck you. I'm sorry if me losing my job some how impacted your ability to beat your internet friends at fantasey baseball.
