Not sure, just interesting, especially with a new coach. It may not be a big deal.
Was surprised to see the comment from Kelly stating that IF any discipline would be issued it would be handled internally. I think some coaches may consider discipline is in order for an incident like this. Maybe after his investigation we'll see some suspensions, but maybe so many were involved it will just be easier to overlook it. Somehow I expect everyone to be in uniform and good to go against the Big Ten teams.
LOL!I hate articles like this. Seriously, the majority of college kids drink underage. I'm not saying they don't need to be punished, but it should be handled internally and they don't need to have to go through the embarrassment of having their names posted on ESPN.com. It just really annoys me.

I don't disagree with you in principle, but notre dame has worked so hard to create an image of superiority (and that's all it is, an image) over the years that publicity will always follow hard on the heels of the missteps of their athlete-students.
They can't have it both ways, with the exclusive high-dollar NBC contract and the BCS sweetheart deal, and then expect the media and the public to turn a blind eye when their kids behave like every other college kid.
Just my two cents. They are just another university, with average kids, yet they expect special treatment. Uh-uh, sorry.

While I agree that it is not necessarily a national story, the fact that Joe Montana's son is one of those arrested makes it a story to someone.

I heard they just had to say, "Six our fathers and six hail mary's" for punishment!
