FaithInIrish Forever

All cleaned up again @Mike! Thanks for teaching me how to do a post merge again! Big news this week DT Tiki Hola commits- Long armed nose tackle who is growing into his frame and could be an impact run stuffer. Other than that alot of conjecture and space filling videos. Top defenders, impact freshman, typical summer things. Feel free to start threads on any notre dame football topic including those. I'm just creating a video resource library thread for us! Feel free to discuss these in this thread, in your own thread. I just want them to be in one place so we all can see what is out there.

Agreed. A successful pass rush with the front four is key. Notre Dame should not have to play man to man blitzing defense against Northern Illinois University. They should be able to play zone Against teams they are expected to dominate. Playing so much man to man defense against everyone is very hard on your cornerbacks. In fact it may have contributed to Ben Morrison's hip injury last year. However in order to play more zone. The front four need to win their pass rush battles.

Defensive end is a in-house competition this year. Will Burnham and Young Dominate the strong side? Will Botelho and Traore stay healthy at Vyper? Only time will tell.

Defensive line is the position with the most uncertainty following the departure of Howard Cross and Riley Mills. Transfers from Louisville and USC along with in house options like Rubio and Hinish and Onye compete for the interior spots
