From Charlie Weis’ Twitter feed: We’ll have 7 on 7 camp Friday and Saturday. The big guys will enjoy our new ‘Linemen Challenge’ at the same time. Lineman challenge, you say? What could that look like, Smedley? Oh, you say you have footage of the dry run using the scout team, no? Ah, that’ll never get old. Charlie is also stopping by Milwaukee to get his does of Vitamin ROCK with his buddy Jon Bon Jovi, and we wrote that just that way because that is precisely how Charlie Weis wrote it: “Buddy.” Actual tactical-like knowledge stuff: The ND depth chart is looking awfully light and speedy in the nickel, according to Blue-Gray Sky. Since this is a Jon Tenuta defense, spare any film watching and just remember to throw it to the tight end when in doubt. If you doubt this works, ask Georgia, and they will confirm this. You could just pass around a picture in an email. Or you could start an entire blog just to share one picture. If this doesn’t end up in 1post1ders, we’ll give you a wrinkled dollar bill we found in the pocket of Lane Kiffin’s jeans after he is pantsed in the Swamp and claims it was all part of the plan. Feldman! 45 minutes of Feldman makes the ladies say yeaaaaaahhhh. Someone lost a bet. At least that’s our guess on this, unless Mr. Luz Rodriguez of Hoover, Alabama has made a serious miscalculation about the phonetics of his spanking new custom vanity plate. |

Nick Saban has time to say that he likes and agrees with Mr Rodriguez’ new vanity plate.

Nothing like a good Bama-Barn flame war to make the off season go by a little quicker.
ND can put a dress on the pig that is ND football, but it is still a pig. The easy schedule, will only bring them ridicule when they lose three games and get a pissed off one loss (to tOSU) SC pounding them in South Bend. I guess 8-4 is an improvement, but the beatings will continue until their attitude improves.

I dont like the idea of adjusting stats for sacks. A sack is still a loss of yards on the ground, and with so many dual-threat QB’s in the college game, it should be counted as such

Agree with #4.
There is a reason there are “rushing yds gained”, “rushing yds lost”, and “net rushing yds” columns on the stat sheet.
An inability to keep defenders from invading the backfield will manifest itself no matter who is holding the ball.

Since I am blocked behind the corporate firewall, I can only assume that the “lineman challenge” is an embedded YouTube consisting of a time-lapse destruction of a forty-foot buffet table.

As a fan, what Notre Dame lacked in the past decade or so is real depth of quality players, especially on defense. This is the first year since the early 90’s that there is competition at all the defensive positions and we might actually get to substitute more to get fresh legs out there. We’ll be young on the defensive line, but a least we’ll be more than two-deep. This will seem an alien concept to the Floridas, USCs and Texases of College football world, but it hasn’t been the case on Juniper Road for some time.
Is it football season yet?
