'20 NJ TE Kevin Bauman (Notre Dame Verbal)

[NDFAN2008]

I'm kind of dumbfounded we passed on Pritchett hes 6'6 255 right now.
I wonder with the lack of depth at TE we will even see more 2 RB sets and you would think in short yardage situations they will most likely put a 6th OL on the field.

Been there, done that

We’ve got Henry Garrity as the last line of defense. Three star by 24/7

Contact in Aussie rules is brutal. Watch these highlights of recent games: AFL Latest Videos - AFL.com.au

Around 10% of everyone in Australia who played the sport at all levels in 2023-24 had an injury that required hospitalization: https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/spo...nts/featured-sports/australian-rules-football

My son had to have a shoulder reconstruction playing the game at club level. Those who play at the professional AFL level (see highlights linked above) have maximum exposure.

I’m pretty sure T-Boone lives in Oceania and I’m assuming you do, also…which is another hilarious anecdote about ND having the most unique, diverse, and global fanbase. We’ve got dudes in here from a world away arguing about how physical Aussie football is. We’ve got food threads. We’ve got courthouse threads. IE truly has it all.

Which direction does your water flush?

 

[Old Man Mike]

Yes, please. Some more of that. MUCH more.

Just stick an RB behind it.

That’s either Book keeping it or Tremble going in motion and getting it as soon as he gets to Book.

Emphasizing the importance of that degree. Best of luck, Kevin, speedy recovery!

Sad. All blessings to you, Warrior.

On our TE position: I've asked before, and am sorry to persist, BUT
could my IE brothers please (as frankly as possible) describe to me why I shouldn't be worried about this position?

The TE situation seems like the ONLY place on the ENTIRE TEAM which is not loaded with championship firepower, and is rather potentially mediocre (or maybe one injury away from mediocrity.) If our QB turns out to be really good, then all aspects of O and D should roll --- except maybe TE.

I assume this was before he latest setback, which makes this even more poignant...

I don't think we need a great TE to be a great offense. Our offense has relied heavily on the TE in the past because we've 1) had great TEs and 2) not had great playmakers outside. If you are bullish on our WR room as I am, especially in the middle of the field with our slot WRs, then not having a stud TE should not be the biggest concern. Additionally, I think Raridon will take a big step forward this year -- If he can stay healthy.
