I take it if he released that tweet, he's eligible for fall at the conclusion of this semester. So he doesn't need summer classes... in fact, summer could only hurt him.

Now he just plays in the fall and then starts combine training after the bowl game.

The end.

*Hopefully he gets as much done towards his degree as possible*

If he stays healthy I'd bet a large amount of money on him to win it. But I don't have a large amount of money. His numbers will be gaudy in this offense.

The first couple games will tell us a lot. I want to see if Long is legit about using the tight ends more.

As long as we're moving the ball and scoring, I suspect the first game we'll see very little of the playbook.

O/U on total receptions for Mr. Mack? I'll put it at 35.

I'll take that with all my Vbucks. He'll be targeted at least 8 times/game and he'll average at least 5 receptions per.

Yards would've been a better line to take, I'd say 600 would be a good line. TDs - o/u 8?

9 ypc.... yuck.

If you are right, ESB's #'s will be down and ASB will never come. (Just wanted to beat the boo birds)

There are plenty of balls available.

Hunter and Stepherson had 63 catches, 5 more than ESB.

The TEs, Finke, Smythe, and Weishar, had 23 and averaged better than 12 YPC. Mack will do better than 12.


With a better running game than last year AND the Mack Attack, defenses are going to have to tighten up leaving ESB in single coverage and a constant big play threat.

Whether or not ASB wants to come to ND, he's gonna love the offense!

That's assuming a similar offensive output to previous years but I think Chip Long adds enough to the equation to disrupt that thinking. I'm not saying we'll be top 5 in offensive production but I wouldn't be surprised to see defenses in a bind. With our offensive line/RBs, you should really commit 8 men in/around the box. Wimbush's arm is strong enough to power the ball down field and we have TEs that can run seams.

With Stepherson and ESB on opposite side of the fields, I could foresee two 1k receivers.

If I were a betting man, and I am, my money is on ESB eclipsing the 1k mark this year and hearing his name called April '18.

Then ESB burns them, then they leave the deep middle open, then Mack catches 35 yard passes twice a game (at least) from Wimbush, after Brandon buys himself some time in the pocket and breaks down the defense.

It all hinges on Wimbush being able to compose himself under fire. I know he has all of the tools but he can't force throws like he did in the spring game or we can count on 3 losses minimum. I know he was forced to stay in the pocket and not use his feet, which are a huge asset.

I just hope his field vision is good and his composure is great.

love to see Alize come up big this week. 6-7 catches for 100 yards maybe. Due to break out.

I got a feeling that Alize will have an ok game 3 or 4 catches 50 yards and a TD.

But Claypool will breakout with 7 catches 100 yards and at least a TD.

is two passing td's good or bad? Could mean were behind and having to toss the rock, or could mean Wimbush is dealing and getting some good looks off PA.

I would start Van Gorder if he promised to throw Claypool the damn ball.

I'd just like him to catch what's thrown to him. If he can do that, the Irish will be just peachy.
