Food for thought: 2011 Aaron Lynch - Transferred after good freshman year Ishaq Williams - No production, suspended and unable to return to team Stephon Tuiit - Very few problems, productive, drafted high Ben Koyack- solid contributor, NFL draft pick 2012 Gunner Kiel -red-shirted then...

Apologies if someone has already posted this, and please let me know if I need to make any corrections, but this is where I think we stand on numbers going into spring: I really had no idea how thin we are at LB. Safety is crazy. Slot is thin. And we don't have quite as much OL depth as I...

Here is where I think the 2015 roster stands as of now, may need some corrections: QB 1) Malik Zaire, Jr. '17 2) Deshone Kizer, So. '18 3) Brandon Wimbush RB (Likely 4 on roster) 4) C.J. Prosise, Sr. '15 5) Tarean Folston, Jr. '16 6) Greg Bryant, Jr. '17 7) Josh Adams 8) Dexter Williams...

Here is where I think the 2015 roster stands as of now, may need some corrections: Player/Grade/Eligibility (starters bolded) QB 1) Everett Golson, ??? '15 2) Malik Zaire, Jr. '17 3) Deshone Kizer, So. '18 4) Brandon Wimbush RB (Likely 4 on roster) 5) Tarean Folston, Jr. '16 6) Greg...

This is a review of the ND roster, assuming we get all of our current commits except McKinney. I assume we don't get Jones, ESB, another Safety, etc. Here is how I think we look: QB 1A) Everett Golson, RSS 1B) Malik Zaire, Jr. '17 3) Deshone Kizer, So. '18 4) Brandon Wimbush Spring: A...

IMO, he's Stanford's if they want him. If you are (1) a kicker, (2) academically serious, and (3) not Catholic, you go with Stanford or Duke. Northwestern, Notre Dame, and Vanderbilt are your back-ups.

It seems like a pretty dead period for recruiting right now. What are the key dates moving foward, in terms of our recruits visiting ND, visiting elsewhere, or announcing? Jan. 17th - Braden Smith: visiting ND - Terrence Alexander: visiting Ole Miss Jan. 20th - Dalton Shultz: announcing...

A lot of people in the-the-know made it very clear, very quickly that hiring HH was a desparate move by a coach who was afraid to make a splash. Hesupposedly could not recruit and was a mediocre coach. Recruits looking for information on the internet inevitably learned what a disaster the hire...

Here is my 4-3 Roster, with starters italicized. QB [4] 1) Everett Golson, Sr. '15 2) Malik Zaire, Fr. ('17) 3) Deshone Kizer RB [4] 4) Cam McDaniel, Sr. '14 5) Amir Carlisle, Sr. '15 6) Tarean Folston, So. '16 7) Greg Bryant, So. '17 WR-slot [3] 8) C.J. Prosise, Jr. '15 9) Will Mahone, Jr...

Now that we are on the other side of the Spring Game, I thought it was worth re-visiting what our needs for this class are. I am ranking each position by relative need (real need ... luxury). (Mods: please move this post if it fits better somewhere else.) Here is my breakdown of the offense...

A...B...C...D Always Be Closing, Denbrock

...to whoever at IrishEnvy pushed against the grain and established the tradition of running threads. Reading some of the other boards is just painful. Our format really allows for a community discussion on each topic, rather than little groups of posters missing some things, repeating some...

6'6" TEs are awesome to have, no doubt. But both teams in the Superbowl use TEs a lot, both get production out of their TEs on crucial downs, and here are their sizes: San Francisco Vernon Davis 6'3" 250 (Maryland) Delanie Walker 6'0" 242 (Central Missouri State) Baltimore Dennis Pitta 6-4...

1985 Miami v. ND: 58-7 1987 Miami v. ND: 24-0 1988 Miami v. ND: [31-30] . . . 1988 NC 1995 UF v. Nebraska NC: Neb wins 62-24 (played Jan. '96) 1996 UF loses to FSU: 24-20, then beats them for NC 52-20 2008 Alabama: 12-0 start, lose 20-31 to UGA in SEC Champ., lose 17-31 to Utah in Sugar Bowl...

This post is from a person who supports Kelly and always has... In my opinion Kelly evolves. He came in with a my-way-or-the-highway approach, and quickly learned that this had to be tempered both because of (1) the level of fan/alumni scrutinyy and (2) the unique players we recruit ("they are...

Here is the current outlook for next year's team with their class and the year their eligibility expires. The 18 Seniors are italicized, 5th years starred. Kids who's eligibility expires are bolded. QB [5] 1) Tommy Rees Sr. '13 (1) 2) Andrew Hendrix Sr. '14 (2) 3) Everett Golson Jr. '15 4)...

I really liked the part where Notre Dame beat its arch-nemesis, USC, to win a spot in the National Championship game. There were other good parts but--when it comes right down to it--that was my favorite.:cowboy:

Notre Dame, in its quest to keep me constantly looking at something football related, has posted a panoramic picture of the entire stadium during the Michigan game. The resolution is so good that you can literally pick yourself out and label yourself with a tag if you want to. Being a...

I recently read that we did not use the drop LB (DOG) very much the first two games. Instead we used an additional safety. 1) Is this the case? 2) Why do this against Purdue? 3) It may just be a simple matter of they are better players, but why keep Carlo or Fox on the feild and not Councell...

The thing that has made ND so frustrating since 2005 (with the exception of 2007) is the combination of some incredible talent, with some really glaring holes. We have had a strange combination of top tier talent at most spots with gaping holes at a couple for about 6 years now. 2011: Last...
