Haden leaned forward, six inches
from the goal line — and Mahalic
appeared from nowhere and hit
Haden so hard and so directly from
Haden's left side that Haden simply
went straight sideways out of bounds.
I was watching with a USC fan, and
he could only yell, "What a play!" No
two points.
It's great to learn that Mahalic is as
successful in life as he was in football.
That one play (and his cool name)
made him one of my all-time favorite
Domers. Recruit 22 Drew Mahalics,
and you will have a winning program
for a long time.

STAR SYSTEM
It would be interesting to see the
high school number of star ratings
next to the names of each "Irish in the
NFL" player feature.
It might indicate that not all NFL
quality players have five- or even
four-star recruit ratings as high school
players. It would also show the reader
that Notre Dame has some pretty
savvy coaches at both evaluating and
developing young talent.

WHAT HAPPENS
AT ND STAYS AT ND
Recent events at Notre Dame, in-
cluding a " poor academic judgment"
incident have prompted the usual irate
letters and calls for the school presi-
dent's resignation. Of course, these
letters are usually written more for the
benefit of the author than the recipi-
ents.
So hang in there Notre Dame
Nation, and let's solve our problems
under the Dome, not in newspapers
and saloons. I remain loyal to Notre
Dame, and look forward to Her return.

developing into a first-round NFL pick.
