    All of a sudden, Cincinnati is slowly becoming relevant in football.

    Dantonio got it rolling with the Rutgers win last year, but Brian Kelly has the program on the fast track. Ranked for the first time since the 1970s, selling out home games (which never happens at Nippert unless its Elder/St. Xavier playing there), and now picking up a high-profile transfer.
    things are looking up for the Bearcats.

    If he went to App State, he could have joined the team that beat the team that buttloved Notre Dame to the tune of 38-0.

    And then lost to Wofford.

    I haven't been able to verify this but supposedly ND wouldn't grant a release for the kid to transfer to a school that Notre Dame was already scheduled to play in the next three years. Has anyone else heard that?

    That's their policy, yes.

    Didn't know that was their policy. I had heard they were making it a point for this kid specifically.

    I'm not 100 percent on it, but I've heard it described that way. I don't know if it's a Weis thing or existed before him.

    I believe it's a Weis thing. Also an issue for a backup tight end who recently left who has a brother at Stanford.

    Notre Dame is acting foolish and this whole episode will further hurt recruiting. Seems like more pettiness from a once proud school and football program.
