Last offseason was also maybe the only time ever that ND had sympathy from the overall college football landscape, considering how BK left and how immensely popular Freeman was. Plus coming off that run of 10+ win seasons it was easy to start high on ND stock.
Don't tell that to Irish Bloke and others on this Board. Can a very good, if not great QB make these risks go away? We will find out.
meanwhile, people wanted Rudolph to develop Rocco and help him get to his potential - appears has - zero praise lol
Red herring…..
Wait
it was a direct snap from Tyree but then he ran a zone read to Hartman, Hartman then pulls up and throws a fade
Preseason rankings are dumb. It's just conjecture based on last season's record and guesswork how tough this season's schedule will be (the only reason I can see for ranking us in the teens is that three teams we play are ranked higher than us. If there are 12 teams that are acutally better at football than ours I'll be very surprised).
thats the issue, some people accommodate this in their rankings and others don't. Others rank teams on how many future NFL players they will have etc. It's all very subjective, you gotta take it with a pinch of salt.
This is one thing that sorta cracks me up... when we take guys, we are always like "oooo he could be underrated or have high upside" and then sometimes they win the job and we are like "wtf he was a 3-star!"
was exactly my thoughts. Not to mention, Merriweather proceeds to drop a contested ball...
And from the sounds of it, Coogan has been turning heads for a year and a half, just hadn't broken through.
IIRC he was listed on the two deep by the end of his freshman year.
I completely agree my only issue is from most of the practice reports it’s more like “yea coogan is repping with the 1s I guess” not really a Coogan is outplaying the other guards. At least from what I’ve read, I’m not there so who knows really.
I think Prister and O'Malley had a good take on this earlier in the week. And, I know it's been shared by others already but I think it's worth repeating.
Need to watch it again, but did I see Greathouse with the first group?
I think Penn State and Tennessee offered as well, but I just don’t have the time to look into it.
annnnnnnnnd???
FWIW, I believe this is the tempo drill. It is not a competition drill or a full speed drill by any means. It's a walk through of the offense. Ball goes to a pre-determined offensive player.
100% PI on Mickey, but would like Tobias to fight more for it.
