Unlike last year I did not attend. I didn't even watch on my TV, I watched the stream on und.com. But I picked up enough to make some notes.
Dayne Crist and Tommy Rees are not the QB's Brian Kelly is looking for.
Andrew Hendrix and/or Everett Golston are the future of Notre Dame football. But I fear for Everett health if he's going to remain that small.
On punts Notre Dame elected to enforce the John Goodman rule, all fair catches no returns.
Aaron Lynch is either amazing or the ND offensive line needs a lot of work. I hope it's the former.
Cierre Wood with no fumbles is going to be the best RB that shows up in Notre Dame games this year (I mean opponents don't have a better RB (Denard Robinson is a QB, so far)).
John Goodman made a heck of a catch on his touchdown catch, he gave himself a ton of room to land and Golston made a sick throw, as well.
Have I mentioned Aaron Lynch yet?
The kicking game has some competition, even with mulligans on extra points.
I expect Kyle Brindza to be the punter, unless BK is holding him back for a redshirt.
Is there anything better than Brian Kelly yelling at mo-hawked Robby Toma? "You're not fast, you're not tall and that haircut's not very good. So catch the ball."
The offense would be sick if they had a superstar receiver out there...
Lo Wood's future is so bright he's going to need a tinted visor.
Manti T'eo didn't make any tackles. WHATSUPWITHTHAT?
I know, he didn't play on defense.
In summation:
Andrew Hendrix is really good and fits the system.
Everett Golston is tiny but good.
Cierre Wood is awesome. His sideways, backward juke (1:14 in the link) in the Western game is one of my favorite plays of last year.
The defense is going to be awesome next year.
I'm really trying to calm myself down about predictions for the upcoming season (undefeated going into Stanford?).
And a trailer for the upcoming season.
