I'd be less than honest if I didn't admit there is a huge buzz around the country surrounding our game. That just excites the heck out of all of us who are part of the Notre Dame family.

There is nothing more likely to start disagreement among people or countries than an agreement.
I'm sure this is just the starting point. We want to work from the ground up and get people thinking about crime prevention.
In general, tech companies are focused on betting the company on the next generation. They need every dime they can get.
In December, what (Albertsons) meant when they said they were no longer for sale is that they are no longer actively seeking bids. That of course doesn't mean any entity is prevented from bidding.
