good enough to win a championship. It takes the right kind of coaching and development. Elko showed that ND can have a good enough defense. ND's achilles heel was the QB position. Replace Wimbush with a 60% passer that is a slightly worse runner and I think ND beats Georgia and Stanford. Miami is still a question because of the way we lost.
The talent is there. The decision to ride Wimbush all season even though he was one dimensional QB was the mistake made this past season. Not to mention not playing Dexter more. Both HC decisions. For eight seasons Kelly has made these head scratching choices.
