Osu has more talent than we did this seasonWe had better Jimmy's and Joe's than every team we played this year, including Ohio State. Ohio State was the only one close from a talent perspective (clemson probably next).

Riley got injured in the pocketYou have no clue if Riley Leonard will be an upgrade over Sam Hartman.
None.
Any QB who relies on his legs, buyer beware.
Running QB's are an injury waiting to happen.

Recruiting ranking yes, ranking by NFL (expected players to play in NFL), i think i saw ND had a 1 person advantage with those that started (key being starters).Osu has more talent than we did this season
Osu will have more players drafted than us. I don't know where you saw thatRecruiting ranking yes, ranking by NFL (expected players to play in NFL), i think i saw ND had a 1 person advantage with those that started (key being starters).
Oh my, this is unbelievableIf h
is injuries heal I like his potential to lead us to a natty in freeman’s year 3
This is something that you are hoping for, but we really don't know, it's guessing, not proven. I really feel bad for Minchey & Angeli. Still think one of the two transfer after the spring game.Yes he is. In terms of potential and upside
Angeli has been named the starter for the bowl gameSo now...will angeli stay. Will he play in bowl game....
It's guessing if I said he would perform better than Sam. It's not fussing saying he has more talent and potential. That part is not a guessThis is something that you are hoping for, but we really don't know, it's guessing, not proven. I really feel bad for Minchey & Angeli. Still think one of the two transfer after the spring game.
I would be very surprised if at least one of them didn’t transfer. There are places where they can play, but that won’t be at ND ahead of Leonard.I would think Angeli and Minchey would both like to play in the bowl game. But I could see one of them transferring out after the spring, though.
If they leave after spring, neither will have a chance to start on a p5 levelI would be very surprised if at least one of them didn’t transfer. There are places where they can play, but that won’t be at ND ahead of Leonard.
Don't you mean the exhibition game?The bowl became more interesting to me. Curious to see what Angeli shows.
I've brought that up two weeks ago but was told get uae to it in regards to recruiting top players, but with this being a league wide problem the recruiter is really going to have to sale the program mixed with a little BS.Good get for the short term, but I'm concerned with the long term effects. Is this the future of filling out a roster? Is player development a thing of the past?
Maybe, but USC has more individual talent.But you included USC....Louisville will probably be better than them again next year
I’m giving a pass for the Louisville game this year because of certain circumstances with scheduling and what not.agree 100% ND should NOT lose to them, ND was a 7 point favorite to win at Louisville this year, and over 7 points at Duke, and look how we played.
The 4 games i mention are probably the only 4 games ND is NOT favored by 14 or more
Yes there is ......who says Freeman won't go to the portal at the end of next season?If they leave after spring, neither will have a chance to start on a p5 level
Minchey has 4 years left. No reason for him to panic and transfer

Yeah, they really struggled against ND this year!Adapt or die. You need to be good in the transfer portal or run the risk of becoming clemson
Telx1 I totally agree that it will take another year to judge the effectiveness of Parker’s offense . This year was staked against him with only a running game to rely on . New receivers - injuries to the only two experienced receivers and a new tight end and another only playing at the end of season do to injury . Was a very inexperienced receiving corps therefore Notre Dame was forced to rely on a running game even with a Qb that was not proficient at runningAgree with all but last sentence. His size and athleticism and mobility will be a weapon, and extremely important with a young inexperienced line, at least at tackles, and possibly at guards as well.
I think the jury is still out regarding Parker. He game planned without a deep ball threat, with freshmen receivers that were unable to get separation, with two inexperienced guards who were slow, with a right tackle that played several uninspired games, with a center who got knocked back repeatedly, without his best receiver for several games, with injuries to Thomas and Greathouse, and a QB who had no confidence in his receivers. As much as we tend to buy into the hype of the players we recruit, the fact is we had players at several positions on offense that frankly should not be starting at a place like ND. These excuses and realities will not be present next season, other than a relatively inexperienced line, and Parker can be fairly judged then.
Nah. No reason to panic and transfer. He has 4 years leftYes there is ......who says Freeman won't go to the portal at the end of next season?
With the QB position being filled at the end of each season with the someone from portal he will only has practice and mop up experience.
With that kind allure it will be tough
Hum Some riskAdapt or die. You need to be good in the transfer portal or run the risk of becoming clemson
There's nothing normal anymoreNah. No reason to panic and transfer. He has 4 years left
If Freeman goes to the portal again next year(which I don't think he will), he can transfer in December and go to a new team and have 3 years at his new school if he wants
No reason to panic, at all. He wasn't some 5 star with crazy elite talent that was expected to play year 1. This is normal QB development
seems to be a pattern there...Hum Some risk

Yeah. Exactly. they aren’t winning the games they used to win anymore.seems to be a pattern there...
Compared to Who?Yeah. Exactly. they aren’t winning the games they used to win anymore.
Multiple factors, but portal is one
Because I'm curious to see what the young man brings to the table.Why would it become more interesting?
He's only here for one year. Expecting a big jump in ability is wishful thinking. I do like his running ability. He's more thrower than passer. Hope Gino has a big influence on his mechanics. If so good things may occur.Yes he is. In terms of potential and upside
I am too. I also want to see if they play Minchey.Because I'm curious to see what the young man brings to the table.
It's all subjective.No. No one does. No one has a crystal ball
Like I said, in terms of talent and upside, yes he's better in those terms
It's an opinion not a fact.It's guessing if I said he would perform better than Sam. It's not fussing saying he has more talent and potential. That part is not a guess
He's going to be playing with much better players. If he plays to his 2022 ability (33 TDs) with our talent, we should be set up for a big year.He's only here for one year. Expecting a big jump in ability is wishful thinking. I do like his running ability. He's more thrower than passer. Hope Gino has a big influence on his mechanics. If so good things may occur.
Yes. It can still be interesting. I love seeing guys getting their feet wet.Don't you mean the exhibition game?
You need to educate yourself on what's happening in college football. The days of waiting are over. Guys want to play, especially at the QB position. That's where the real money is.Nah. No reason to panic and transfer. He has 4 years left

Check your dictionary for the definitions of " fact " and " opinion ".No. That's a fact
Not all guys transfer. That's just an overreaction and a lazy take.You need to educate yourself on what's happening in college football. The days of waiting are over. Guys want to play.
Of course. He's not coming in for one year to sit.I am too. I also want to see if they play Minchey.
But both will be on the bench next year if Riley is healthy.
It's simply a fact. You may not like it but it is.Not because YOU say it is.
