Domers Weis '78 & Crist '12 Lead Jayhawks


The Jayhawks played their first Spring game yesterday with Coach Weis and Dayne Crist leading the charge.  Here's some game highlights along with the media coverage.  The game was played in front of a crowd estimated at 15,000 -- "They're not in South Bend anymore..."

I want these two and the rest of the Fightin' Irish gang in Lawrence to do great!!!

Jonas Gray to Dolphins, Dever to Cowboys...


The NFL "free agent frenzy" began even before the final pick in the 7th round -- when the owner of the Miami Dolphins got on the phone with Notre Dame's Jonas Gray to negotiate what appears to be a guaranteed one-year deal with the Irish star, who is recovering from knee surgery.

Congratulations Jonas!

Also -- Taylor Dever's agent negotiated a free-agent deal with the Dallas Cowboys for the former Irish offensive tackle and Ethan Johnson signed a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs.  Gary Gray is rumored to have accepted a mini-camp / workout with the Detroit Lions.  Trevor Robinson signs a free agent deal with the Cincinatti Bengals.  Still waiting to learn if David Ruffer will sign with a team.


I Found a New Toy, You'll Want One Too!


Folks, I've been playing the last 72 hours with the Verizon 4G Droid Bionic Motorola mobile phone and their NFL Mobile ap -- watching the 2012 NFL Draft. Addictive!

This morning, I got up and I'm watching the NFL Network's Live on this phone -- and it's streaming, perfectly -- without any hesitation.

It's cable TV on the go -- my wife's not going to like that!!!

Now, if I can get a Notre Dame NBC ap for this thing -- I'll be all set!
