Kevin Stepherson - Bright future

[chaseball]

He burned the best cornerback in college football yesterday on a nasty double move. He juked Jackson out of his shoes. He also produced 500 yard, 5 TD season on 25 catches -- and as a true freshmen, his potential is sky high. His targets will probably double next year at least.

Whoever is coaching the team next year, they will be coming into a really good offensive situation. ND will have a stacked offensive line, even if McGlinchey & Nelson don't return ... will have a super gifted QB regardless of Kizer's return. Josh Adams really started coming on strong late, and Dexter Williams looks excellent when he's had room to run ... Alize Jones should be returning, and maybe one of the best WR duos in the country between Stepherson & St Brown.

With the right coach, this team should be able to put up 40+ ppg.

I still *really* like Lane Kiffin .. i think his pro style offense would fit NDs strengths, plus he'll be the kind of coach that can really move the needle in terms of the type of athletes the university can attract. He's a known commodity in terms of recruiting the best athletes in the country. We need someone who can come in and light a fire under the asses of all the blue bloods who think you can win college football games with policies/admissions/restrictions/etc. from the 1980s.

Adoree is not the best corner at all. He's the best athlete in college with Lamar Jackson. He gets burned a lot by WR's.

Could become a Will Fuller type player to influence, but he doesn't separation as well as Fuller. Obviously will get better with experience as his route running will get crisper. WR separation was bigger problem all season compared to 2015. Fuller, Brown, and even Robinson all seemed to get more separation than Wrs this year. Tori was the best on his own, but I still think the windows were still tighter for Kizer than in 2015. This was a significant impact of Fuller leaving.

Nope, disagree. The Windows were tighter, because we can't, or never did commit to the, run

And yet, ND had more rush attempts than pass attempts both in 2015 and in 2016. Watching the games, the newer WRs this year had more trouble getting good separation than did thw WRs in 2015.
