Notre Dame's Veteran Initiative -- Giving Back!



For nearly 175 years, the men and women of Notre Dame have aspired to becomes forces for good in the world. Today, veterans like Luis Morales pursue their degrees at the University of Notre Dame, continuing a dedication to serve and a solemn commitment to make the world a better place.
To help students like Luis, the Notre Dame Veterans Fund helps offset tuition and living costs, and provides resources that enable veterans to continue their education here at Notre Dame. There are between 75-100 veterans enrolled at Notre Dame in a given semester. Please make a gift today to support these men and women who serve as leaders both in and out of the classroom.
We thank all veterans for their brave service.

When Will College Football Staffs Have This?


A rules expert -- someone who knows the rules of football better than the part-time officials do?  An individual on the coaching staff, who in "real time," can catch officials' making mistakes in their interpretation of the rules or, the scope of their authority -- and get them reversed IMMEDIATELY.

We experienced a huge officiating call in the ND vs. Navy game yesterday -- where a FOOTBALL RULES EXPERT (standing on Notre Dame's sideline) could have changed the outcome of the game.  
  • The game changing "12-man on the field penalty call against Notre Dame" -- that led to Navy's game winning TD -- was made by the replay official from the American Conference (Navy's conference) and, he should not have been allowed to make that call.  SEE THE RULE.  Ironically the ACC officials on the field did not feel it was a penalty and did not drop a flag on the play.
 You can see Devin Studstill running off field before snap...

What would it be worth to Brian Kelly today -- if there had been someone on his sideline who could have let the ACC officiating crew know IMMEDIATELY -- "this is not his call in the replay booth..." 

I'm sure we can find a Notre Dame student or two who could become quite proficient on the OFFICIAL RULES OF FOOTBALL -- and keep the guys in "black & white" in check.

What do you think?
