The "Un-luck" of the Irish


As I was sitting here today watching the Notre Dame basketball team, I about threw up! Notre Dame was heading into the UCLA game tonight on a six game losing steak and was playing its self right out of the NCAA tournament. The Irish were ranked as high as seventh earlier this year and now find themselves 12-10 and headed straight to the NIT.

If I was Mike Brey, I would be livid. The Irish just aren't athletic enough to stay with the top teams in the Big East. Another one of Brey's problems is that he only goes like 7 deep. Notre Dame basketball is starting to feel like the football team, underachievers! Things are not going to get any better until Notre Dame starts recruiting better athletes. Sure Luke Harangody is good, but the rest of the team is very inconsistent. It doesn't get any easier. A 7 game losing streak doesn't look so hot on the NCAA Committee's agenda does it?
