It was nice to see those ND-haters over at ESPN actually giving the Irish a little bit of love in one of their preseason rankings. Schlabach’s rankings had the Irish pulling up the rear at #25, which is quite the accomplishment given their 3-9 disaster last year. He also had them projected for the respectable Gator Bowl where they would be taking on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. Not sure I understand where he came up with the idea that the departure of AD Kevin White could have any bearing on the season, but I like his optimism for the Irish nonetheless.

…I am reminded of the great talent of the — of our Philippine-Americans when I eat dinner at the White House.
