Tigers on Showtime last night


Oct 7, 2015, 9:38 AM

Really enjoyed seeing the Notre Dame series on Showtime last night highlighting prep and game at Clemson.

It made Clemson program look really good, especially the fan base.

Kelly was piping in music and noise for practice and said, "if you think this is loud, it's going to be 10 times louder on Saturday night."

I paraphrasing a little here, "Despite their best efforts to simulate the environment in Death Valley, nothing could have prepared the Irish for what they encountered as they were shocked and overwhelmed."

They were traveling in style...flew a Delta 747 into GSP...but I got the impression that was unusual.

Lastly...great shot looking down from Fike at our rather large tailgate outside of Gate 5....so that was cool.

How is this not a NCAA violation?

They are gaining a recruiting advantage by being featured on showtime ###?

Probably no different than ESPN doing that feature

where they visit a school and broadcast a story. Plus, I doubt the NCAA can do a lot to limit an outside organization from covering a school (I'm assuming ND had nothing to do with the production.). If the NCAA doesn't manage conference broadcast contracts, they have no foothold with this.

But I do agree that it gives an advantage.

Showtime has no connection to ND

Most top tier recruits don't have showtime.

Showtime has said that they intend to feature a different team each season.
