[xxxMental187xxx]

24 put a nasty block on two of those state fools

[warrior34able]

A Michigan state fan broke his finger while hitting the dislike button. Lol

THERE SIR IS THE NEW HESTER

[SuperSparrow45]

@Versuz54 Except he's a good wide receiver.

[BGR847]

I was there for this. There's nothing like South Bend.

[xxxMental187xxx]

@BGR847 made my first game last year against south florida even though we lost it was still amazing. The first time you hear the band in the tunnel ... amazing

[slyromero]

This is kinda funny i played against that guy. and hell yea he's fast.

[pgraybengal]

His father was my all time favorite Raiders player!!!

[1992lance]

I think I'm going to start watching college ball now!!! As a Raider fan, his dad was dope. And I see some genes in him!!

[MrBillyBatts1]

MSU fans better get used to ass whippings like this cause this is how its going to be for a long time punks!

[mboomer93]

Last year I saw both Atkinsons run the 100 against my high school school at a track meet. Needless to say I was excited

[paigeIV]

I think that young george is great and for all you haters get off my cousins nutts!!!!!!!

[irishfan4life23]

His father played for the Oakland Raiders back in the 1970s.

I think Everett Golson will start next year. I think he has the potential to do serious damage in a Brian Kelly offense. I like Tommy Rees, but he's not elite.

[cauchamar]

@NotreDameCatholic90

This is nonsense. I have high hopes for Golson but he hasn't played a down. Rees is a sophomore who's started 6 games and is 5-1. If he cuts down on the turnovers (very likely) he can certainly put up elite numbers, and he's already putting up elite W-L numbers.

[cauchamar]

These are the kind of athletes and this is the kind of mentality Kelly is bringing in. With so many players still with the stench of the Weis era, there will be games like USF and Michigan. But last year's recruits and this year's play differently than most of the upperclassmen. The upperclassmen don't know how to win. The young guys have the character and mentality of Kelly and his coaches. The more classes that Kelly brings in, the more his players play, the better things will get.

@cauchamar

Stench of Weis recruits? Excuse me, NDs best linebacker and a solid linebacker in Calabrese were Weis recruits. ND starting TE and best wideout were all "stench" of Weis recruits.. I think you should think about what you say before you say it..

[cauchamar]

@StoicBehavioR

I always do. I will be very happy, and I think Irish fans will be very happy, when all of the players who played a couple of years or more for Charlie Weis are all gone. Even the good ones. There are a ton of fifth-year eligibles next year from the #1 rated 2008 class. Yet look how Kelly is filling up his upcoming recruiting class with numbers. He won't bring back more than a handful of those 5th year guys. Why not? He wants to change the culture, and the sooner the better.

[StoicBehavioR]

@cauchamar

He's recruiting on what he needs.. Last year defensive ends was a needed position, so he recruited hard on that. This year he needs defensive backs, thus, he's recruiting on that. And next year I bet he looks to bring in offensive lineman and linbackers..

[notredameswarrior1]

@StoicBehavioR i can totally agree!

[TheKSTEW3]

He looked so smooth on his td return, hopefully Kelly will create some ways of getting GAIII the ball in space.

[Juker70]

Love George, he used to go to my high school last year, i'm honored to have known and met him

[atlanticallstars31]

i love when he put his gloves together and u saw the leprechaun

[nyyankeefan2009]

@atlanticallstars31 even though they say its against the rules (which is stupid)

[LluckoftheIrish]

That was so exciting! GO IRISH(:

[NDandColtsMan]
