So his DB coaching seems sound, given that his good players played good. He gets a chance to be a part of the defensive planning without having to call the plays while doing what he does best. So Freeman/Ash found a guy who can coach the DBs who was currently serving as the DC at a B10...

Well if it's you vs. "some at ND", I'll take the latter. There's no harm in being excited by what some staffers think about the early returns of one of their signees (even if he's not a starter at any point next season). Also, we rarely get reports about EEs being 'legit' unless it comes to...

False. You don't win the title without manufacturing more explosive plays. Golden's defense was plenty sound and kept explosive plays down but we didn't manufacture enough in the passing game. Our defense was not the problem, at least not when healthy. He had us in the championship game with...

Damn, that's a big gap penetrator. Wonder if he's maintained his athleticism?

Do you have time stamps for the sightings? I'm having a hard time tracking the quick cuts

This is a part I wasn't considering and I definitely agree here. Price made game-changing returns over the last 3 years. We really need to find someone who can at least keep it a strength even if they can't fully replicate what he did.

If anyone on this board has a strong opinion about anyone, I tend to think the opposite. Most of the posters are absolute idiots without the savant. I trust Freeman given his track record and the DB room should be appealing to anyone in the country who is being considered.

This happens nearly every year. The RBs are the big loss but it just opens opportunity for a loaded room. Same with TE and same with WR. We aren't relying on one guy to step up. There are lots of competitive options. Love & Price will be missed but we aren't putting out a 3rd string back...

Spring is fittin' to be a whole lotta fun and speculation

He moves different. That was an incredibly athletic play to slip the defender and casually take off for the game-sealing monster dunk. Seriously WANT

It took me 6 months of buying cards with my son to realize it's all smoke and mirrors. In sports, only the really elite players RCs trade for anything valuable, long term. All the other 'good' players rise and fall over time with everyone chasing the bumps. There is zero inherent value in...

He obviously has an uncle that works in the Falcon's front office. Or he hacked the GMs computer and found some really incriminating info. Or he's secretly been initiated into some blood-cult with some uncouth powerful men who enjoy pushing the chess pieces around. Or he's just a damn good OC...

Most players won't completely withdraw from the team/season to play the system. Mental health has been a valid reason and Onye used it as a legitimate explanation for his inability to play out his eligibility thus requesting one additional year to finish. I'm sure we could dream up tons of...

Wait, are people being serious about IU having a chance to beat LSU? Or did my skimming eyes/brain deceive me? This isn't a real discussion right? Do people think this IU team is in the pantheon of all time great teams? They were good enough to win the title and deserve all the accolades...

I'm 100% uncertain. There is a lot of shifting that occurs over spring/summer/fall without injury. I think your guess is probably as good as any other I've seen but I'm curious if Sevilliano or Dixon make any noise. I want to see if Bryce Young takes the #1 spot in definitive fashion or if 2-3...

This is amazing. I thought it was going to take ND creating social backlash to get this approved. He 100% deserved this waiver. Can't wait to see what Onye can do in his final year. How's everyone feeling vis-a-vis defensive tackles?

Interesting first post. Since we're just throwing out starting line-ups without being at practice or knowing positional strengths: LT: Will Black/Augustine LG: Charles Jagusah C: Craig/Otting RG: Guerby Lambert RT: Anthonie Knapp I don't hate the idea of Guerby being a tackle but I like the...

I didn't see DPI at all on that play. I argued this was an incredibly difficult call for the officials. The ball never touches the ground so they can't escape with a "no one caught it". It appeared the WR started the play by controlling the ball, between the time he pulled the ball out of the...

Counterpoint: Bryce is very young for his grade and was still growing through the end of his first year on campus. He's still settling into his body. I'm grateful we have Keon but I think they both represent highly-graded prospects who need to take steps in their development. It's good to...

What wasn't civilized in my reply? I think you are wrong and we have loads of talent. It needs to mature, it needs to galvanize but all of the talent needed to win a title is in the room. I hate ranking positions against each other because it's not a fair assessment and it's of little value...
