Mofome Posted August 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Devin Butler - DB - Fighting IrishNotre Dame indefinitely suspended senior CB Devin Butler following his arrest on Saturday.Per a probable cause affidavit, Butler punched a police officer outside of a bar and then tackled him. Authorities eventually were forced to use a stun gun on the 6-foot, 195-pounder. HC Brian Kelly said that he has spoken with Butler, as well as the five Irish players arrested for marijuana possession in a separate incident on Friday. One of those five -- safety Max Redfield -- has been dismissed from the team. "Their conduct fell short of what we expect from those who represent our football team and this great university," Kelly said in a statement.Source: Chicago Tribune Aug 21 - 7:17 PM Max Redfield - DB - Fighting IrishNotre Dame dismissed senior S Max Redfield following his arrest on Friday.Redfield and four other Notre Dame players were arrested after they were caught speeding. The officer who pulled them over smelled marijuana and a drug dog was subsequently used to sniff out the vehicle. Redfield and two others (WR Kevin Stepherson and RB Dexter Williams) were also charged with possession of an unlicensed handgun. Redfield alone has been dismissed here. This isn't his first brush with discipline. The 6-foot-1, 198-pounder was suspended for a violation of team rules prior to Notre Dame's Fiesta Bowl showdown with Ohio State this past winter. Redfield's future plans are not yet known at this time.Source: Chicago Tribune Aug 21 - 7:00 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangover Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Idiots...why would a ND football player need a handgun in South Bend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mofome Posted August 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 We are recruiting with the big boys now. Wish it would drop to 3 so I can pound ND.Uncle Kevin broke records without arrests, but Davies couldn't coach any D. Uncle Kevin, Urban and Dan Mullen, a good defensive coach and ND would have been set. Good to see Urban and Mullen bring the Cuse/ND offense with them.

FairWarning Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Davies wanted more of a grind-it-out offense (like Georgia) to shorten the game and keep his D off the field. When you are getting 4-5* offensive players, why hold them back? Bob couldn't get those guys anymore and it set them back a few years. The ND fans are nuts. I remember when they despised Dan Devine, they loved Charlie Weis though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
