Craig is supposedly coming back next year, so it will likely be him instead of Otting.

Craig tore his acl in October. I doubt they'll try and rush him back by the beginning of the year.

If Otting plays well post season, does ND have cap space to keep him or will he become another Coogan? Big talented dude, but health becomes a factor after two consecutive season ending injuries.

10-11 months isn't rushing back an ACL at this point. That's about an average timeline

Disagree.
He's easily a cfp back. I'd go so far to guess he'll be 1,400 all purpose and average 7.5 ypc. He won't hit nearly the same number of homeruns that Love did, but he also won't have nearly as many stuffs running behind a Joe Moore contending oline.

This stat line is rather crazy. If you’re giving him credit as a good APB, you’re implying 200 - 300 receiving yards. Let’s call it 250. That’s 1,150 yards at 7.5 YPC is only 13 carries a game for what would be a award caliber production line. Think that guess might be tempered a bit. Under the new clock rules, I can’t find a single RB doing this. Jaylen Wright at Tennessee would be closest and that is at a hyper speed offense. What you’re searching for is implying our Rush Success Rate will be higher, but in no way would that be reflected in a better YPC than Love has this year.

Yea 7.5ypc is insane, he'd be good at the 5.9-6.5ypc I expect him to be at next year.

I don't think he's a #1 back on a playoff team, I think he's a really, really good #2. Now watch him go on to have a Kyren career which also wouldn't shock me, but I think we're a little high on him as the guy.

Comparing a true freshman last year to what we saw from a senior Kyren is a tough one but they have a similar skillset and I think Aneyas has it in him to be in that conversation by the time his college career is over.

He’s averaging 7.6 YPC for his career on 48 attempts. Our schedule isn’t that great next year and there’s no Price begging for carries. I could see him being around 6.5-7 YPC easily.

You bring up a good point regarding the clock rules. I do wonder if they keep them in place or revert back. I prefer the old rules. Who wants less ball anyway?

I was thinking Williams getting around 1,000 rushing/400 receiving thinking Denbrock accentuates his receiving ability, potential playoff run included. If they give him any run in the return game (think Faison going down), this becomes a layup.

However, it isn't that far fetched considering the history at ND. I was curious where some of the recent backs ended at and here are their totals:

20-21: Kyren 1,438
21-22: Kyren 1,541
22-23: Audric 1,084, Diggs1,032,Tyree 836
23-24: Audric 1,483
24-25: JLove 1,362
25-26: JLove 1,580, JPrice 1,156

Agree but he is still raw as a QB. Would not be a very high pick. Needs at least 1 or two more years to mature.

He's very raw and should stay in school, but if you put him in isolated drills vs the other top quarterbacks, he will impress anyone. I heard he's a great interview as well and would do great on the whiteboard.
Some team would take him high on that potential alone.

Hate seeing Love the opportunity to shine. Should just note he had 56 yards rushing and one TD in one quarter. Mendoza had less than dazzling numbers as well but Pavia is. Is probably the most deserving unless you hold 6 seasons against him. I think the last Mexican to win the Heisman (and maybe the only one) was ND QB John Huarte.
