Here are my list of on field things ND needs to improve on.
Run blocking- We "caught" a lot of blocks. I want ND to deliver the block, gain yardage with the block, create new space.
Tackling in space- At the LB and Safety level ND was a step slow. Showed up in tackling the ball carrier and covering receivers
Pass Receiver routes- ND has such good athletes now that need coached up. There is no reason that ND receivers can't stack a db, (force that defender in a single file line without allowing him to make a play on the ball.). Our receivers struggle with getting open, those things can be taught, they have the talent.
I'm sure you guys have 3 too. Lets write them down now and see if they come of the list next year.
This time of year I take time to evaluate.
