		<title>Les Miles Has Words For Gunner Kiel</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Spurned LSU coach opened his mouth on the Gunner Kiel situation (from his view), and promptly inserted foot:
&#8220;We needed a quarterback in this class,&#8221; Miles said. &#8220;There was a gentleman from Indiana that thought about coming to the Bayou State. He did not necessarily have the chest and the ability to lead a program. Just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Signing Day Shenanigans</title>

		<title>Standifer&#8217;s Little Problem With ND</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;YOU KNOW I DON&#8217;T SPEAK SPANISH!&#8221;

Notre Dame not accepting an online Spanish course is the reason the Irish won&#8217;t be getting solid 3* prospect, and former Michigan commit Anthony Standifer.
Oh well.  He would have been nice for depth, but doesn&#8217;t make or break this class. Case closed&#8211;as far as he goes.

		<description><![CDATA[The gist of the craziness that is Notre Dame recruiting was covered in Part I.  Part II is strictly thoughts on whether the biggest targets left this year will sign with the Irish on Feb. 1st.  Here they are&#8211;and here&#8217;s what they will do:

		<title>Notre Dame&#8217;s Wacky Recruiting World&#8211;Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No Notre Dame recruiting cycles have been as crazy as Brian Kelly&#8217;s&#8211;Period.  No Notre Dame coach has worked harder to build a team in a fashion that will lead to success in today&#8217;s college football&#8211;Period.

		<title>Don&#8217;t Sleep On Brian Kelly&#8217;s Recruiting Prowess</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On December 28th, I declared that &#8220;The Gunner Kiel Saga Is Over&#8220;.
Let&#8217;s just say THE BLARNEY WAS WRONG AGAIN.  Kiel turned away from LSU at the lost possible moment before enrolling early and signed in at Notre Dame instead on January 17, 2012 (the first day of spring semester).

		<title>A Few BCS Bowl Thoughts&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having college football back in the mix on New Year&#8217;s day has long been one of the Blarney&#8217;s favorite feelings.
