Good Analysis—Hasn’t it been widely talked about that Rivals is most generous in their rating of ND players hence the overall class rankings being a bit skewed? Maybe, I’m wrong but I thought I’ve read that before. Overall, they have underachieved even if that’s the case but I do think they have an overall lack of top end skilled defenders. When do you hear them land the elite pass rusher, safety or corner? They usually aren’t even in play for those kids and their putrid showing in the NFL drafts speaks volumes about landing the real elite players.

In reply to ND Harvey. It ALWAYS looks good on paper. After 20 years of disappointment, I've finally learned not to expect much. I hope I am wrong, Go Irish!

See, Great job, well done. It all looks good on paper and I have plenty of confidence in the changes that Coach Kelly made on and off the field. It all begins in 32 days, let’s have no BS off the field stuff. “Here Comes the IRISH”……………Go IRISH!!!!

I think the schedule is brutal!! Excessively so!! Don’t forget about Navy (who will give us fits)..

And games against N.C. State, BC, and Wake Forest always seem to be harder than they should be as
we always play down to the level of competition..

7-5 if we’re lucky (N0 MAJOR INJURIES).. 8-4 if Winbush is as good as advertised!!

We’re a soft team.. I hope Elko toughens them us up.. If not, it’s going to be another long
season especially on the D…

I heard Jon Gruden is available.. LOL..

Candid, thorough, and well presented. The positive comparative data on overall talent and recruiting is shocking… and documents a program that has hugely under-achieved. The Georgia game really will be a pivotal moment, for team and coach.
