It's not good. The league "star" for a long time was Aidan O'Shea who's captain of Mayo's inter county Gaelic Football squad.
Edit: actually i was talking about the international team not the league. My bad.
Edit edit: I actually did know about the super league, a friend in grad school did an internship for a team

Written by a Domer, no less. Very complimentary piece.
Kolek a Finalist (5 players) for the Cousy Award.
Pieper played in Ireland for a bit. And one of Deane's assistants, Sean Rivers, also coached there.
Great article....thanks for sharing it
