Yeah, it seems that people forget that he dropped a lot last year as well, and he had the dropsies in the spring as well. Bottom line is, last year when he broke the record for freshman receptions at ND, Tate was a receiver without a clue, and Floyd was a senior in h.s. Now they've arrived, and Kamara still drops the ball. Bottom line, he has to make plays. He hasn't. Like I said, he's a Domer, so I root like hell for him. But bottom line is there are 3 receivers (Grimes too) better than he is right now, and Parrish has his own niche as well. Time for Kamara to raise his game...
He's made some plays. He often comes down with the hardest catches. I have to think his head is just not fully in the game. If a catch requires tremendous concentration, he seems to make it. But he seems to flub the ones that require little to no concentration.

I have thought that same thing. I don't know the kid, I have never been at practice, and so I don't know what is going on in his head, but it looks like he just isn't completely there sometimes. I have also seen him on a couple jump balls where he mis-times his jump. Either jumps too early or too late and the much smaller DB gets more elevation. At 6'5", he should be coming down with just about everything you put up for grabs like that. He will run a route and then, just as the ball is on its downward path, he looks like he starts zoning out and thinking about a paper he has due on Monday. The ones off his numbers are maddening. Jimmy puts a strike right on the money and it hits him between the 1 and the 8 and goes sailing off and sometimes to a defender.

I hope he comes around, but I definitely think there isn't much sand left in the hour glass for him. Just too much talent on campus and in bound. It will be even worse when Goodman gets on the field next season.
