Tom Loy sent out a tweet that's private that stated a freshman turned heads in practice Monday. Anybody have any inside scoop?

Regarding the speculations that the "slot position" will be a breakout location for NDs offense this year: maybe, depending upon how one defines "the slot position."

When those words are used there is a tendency to picture Carlisle and Prosise. Well, OK. But Coach wants a lot of two TE involvement this year as far as I'm hearing [Koyack plus a "big"], and when that happens Carlisle/ Prosise disappear from the field.

There is also a fair amount of talk of Bryant showing up there [either in motion to the slot, as a two-headed RB situation, or flanked there initially {I doubt the latter}], again no Carlisle or Prosise. AND there is talk of using Luatua as a "fullback type" lead blocker, whether in the backfield or lined up "heavy" on the edge.

All I'm speculating about here is that Amir and CJ may not get as many reps per game as one might think, and it will be vital that they "make the best of them."

This team is going to be "vintage Kelly" [if Everett runs it correctly]: the ball spread widely around. With the exception of Koyack, there may be no "primary targeted receiver" that an opponent could plan for pre-game. We may have a primary RB [probably Folston], but no primary WR/TE except Ben.

Brent looks like a man among boys compared to the rest of the practicing WRs.

Everyone else is thin and he's like 'yeah, I lift bro'. #squad.

CJ is no chump.

If DD is not reinstated, would CJ get some tick on the outside or is he strictly playing slot?

Brent is going to be a beast! Cant wait to see Fuller's improvement as well, in my opinion he is the one guy that can break it at anytime!

Off topic...but who do we see returning punts and kicks this year?
Click to expand...

The early indications on punts were Folston, Bryant, and Riggs with everybody that watched saying that Riggs looked the most natural or cleanest of the bunch.
