RichRod Wants You! And You. And, hey you, yeah, c’mon…and…

August 13, 2008 by The Biscuit

We already know that Dickie was going after some seriously high quality athletes, based on his tryouts last Spring.   (#38 will always remain my boy.)

But now, Richie Rich wants to get more, and more and more walk-ons, in a hope to simply overwhelm competitors with numbers…

“Next year, we hope we can get (the numbers) up there (to 125 or 130)”

50+ walk-ons?  And they’re going to provide the competition for your schollie players?  Is recruiting suffering up there or something?  (the answer is no)  I just don’t get it.  I mean, I’m all for walk-ons (I was one at ND), but bringing in bodies just to have bodies is just, well, strange.

Will they be there to intimidate opponents?  Is it just to get a new record-breaking number of spectators into Skunkbear Stadium?  Maybe in case there’s a riot, they’ll have a good chance of making it through the blockade?   Randomly weird, Rich.  Randomly weird. 

“More walk-ons!  I want 100,000 walk-ons so every person in the stadium cheer loud – else they’ll run!  I want a million of ’em so we can have our own Million Walk-On March!  I want to have 4 million walk-ons so I can borrow a dollar from each to pay off my contractual obligation to WVU.  Let’s get us some walk-ons babeeeeeeyyyyyy!  Yeeeee-haw!!!”

He strongly believes in the mission of ND and its football program. Biscuit expects logic and data in arguments and will absolutely crush you if you come to a debate missing one or the other. He despises everything Michigan, and his favorite pastime is mocking Purdue.

    I love when Michigan fans start yelling “scoreboard” even if there is no argument, as though we’re refuting the last 2 games ever occurred because Tricky Dick wants a eleventy-billion walk-ons.

    I’m sure The Truth wrote that comment up, and then sent a link to it to his 12 friend-cousins to brag.

    I’d put up advertising on the site, but I’m afraid of what their demographic would cause Google to display.

    Truth, if you want to play that game how about these scores:

    95-67
    91-46

    Graduation rates: overall and African-American

    Yeah, LOVE it when people (that suck) totally ignore the point and argue something totally irrelevant. So Truth, since we lost to UM that means Richie isn’t looking for a million recruits? Heck, I can use that logic too. As a response to your stats: ND has more national championships, more all-americans, more Heisman winners, higher avg SATs, a bigger endowment, and is much more likely to make a student rich than UM. According to your logic, then the last 2 years’ scores don’t matter, and we ‘win’. Moron.
