And our recent history of Butkus award winners is impressive. It's worth at least a call.

I don't believe illusions because too much is for real.

I'm all in on Buchner. Here's why. - Irishize - 6:28am 1/14/21 (39) [View All]
- One big challenge. He's a QB and Kelly will still stick his finger in the middle of it. It rarely - oldirish - 11:59pm 1/14/21
- Went to see him play, lights out arm & very fast. 1 year HS starter tho, last game Nov 2019. [NT] - ND521 - 11:07pm 1/14/21
- Coan will start. I think he will be better than Book. I'd like a limited RPO and Zone Read package - tky21 - 10:04pm 1/14/21
  - And as a postscript, let me say I am grateful we had Book...mean him no disrespect. But we would - tky21 - 10:14pm 1/14/21
- Coan uses the middle of the field a lot based on the videos I've seen - ND_in_DRO - 12:53pm 1/14/21
  - At 6’3”, I believe he is taller than any ND QB since Rees. Maybe he can see over the OL [NT] - Shadow_of_the_Dome - 7:49pm 1/14/21
    - He reminds me of a taller Rees (didn't check Rees height). Not very mobile, weak arm, pretty good. [NT] - oldirish - 12:02am 1/15/21
- Coan will be the starter vs FSU - D2 - 12:52pm 1/14/21
- Two problems from that article. - AlbanyIRISH - 11:00am 1/14/21
  - Played against some big schools, but only in playoffs. Faster than Phil and throws spirals was my [LINK] - ND521 - 11:14pm 1/14/21
- It would be good to have a competition but I think Coan will win based on experience - CC72 - 10:37am 1/14/21
  - He needs to play next year. - AlbanyIRISH - 11:04am 1/14/21
- Buchner is a special talent during a special era @ND, Gonna be another great 4 years [NT] - DonMiller - 9:47am 1/14/21
  - Needs? In what way, please elaborate on your statement. [NT] - whatsamataU - 1:22pm 1/14/21
    - He will never respond to questions regarding his posts. Only posts in support of Kelly homers [NT] - PBHangingChad - 6:40pm 1/14/21
      - Dumb Ass doing that on ND message board! Who does - ColeyO - 7:38pm 1/15/21
      - SYCHOPANT! [NT] - whatsamataU - 9:40am 1/15/21
- Re: I'm all in on Buchner. Here's why. - pghdomer79 - 9:34am 1/14/21
  - and I know how Kelly recruits QBs now, if he has to battle UGA, Clemson, Bama, USC, OSU - holybull101 - 10:13am 1/14/21
    - Jurkovec was recruited by Alabama, OSU, and Clemson. Pyne was offered by 'Bama and Oklahoma. [LINK] - Napoleon - 12:30pm 1/14/21
      - in 2018, Bama, OSU and Clemson were trying to get Trevor Lawrence, and last year they were going - holybull101 - 1:49pm 1/14/21
        Programs tend to go after multiple targets. [LINK] - Napoleon - 6:34pm 1/14/21
        The problem is why didn't Kelly end up with Fields or Lawrence that year? - holybull101 - 7:33pm 1/14/21
        Lawrence and Fields were #1 and #2 overall regardless of position. [LINK] - Napoleon - 10:00pm 1/14/21
      - As were many by Bama. [NT] - whatsamataU - 1:24pm 1/14/21
- FWiW...I think Clark is a better fit for ND's offense than Pyne (unsure about Clark's injury) [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 9:28am 1/14/21
  - Same here. But admittedly haven't seen Clark really play at all. [NT] - oldirish - 12:07am 1/15/21
- here's my concern...Covid and an injury have limited him to just a handful of games. Not saying he - WestCoastIrishFan - 9:25am 1/14/21
- It's a great situation if Kelly decides to make it so. - NDavenue - 8:56am 1/14/21
- If I remember correctly, Buchner didn't have a SR season. - Napoleon - 8:26am 1/14/21
  - Correct, and didn't start at QB until his Jr year. - ND_in_DRO - 12:54pm 1/14/21
  - We can run the table in 2021. Time is of the essence. - Irishize - 8:43am 1/14/21
    - You don't know any of that, though. - Napoleon - 8:53am 1/14/21
      - I understand your point, but it's worth taking the risk. - Irishize - 8:59am 1/14/21
        All I'll add to this: Buchner could get "experience" in 2021 without being the starter game 1. - Napoleon - 9:48am 1/14/21
- This was considered a down year for elite QB prospects - holybull101 - 8:05am 1/14/21
  - I'd rather see him flip CJ Hicks. [NT] - NDavenue - 8:57am 1/14/21
    - Good luck trying to flip this kid - his best opportunity to win a Heisman/NC is with the BuckNuts... - NEPA Irish - 9:44am 1/14/21
      - That's true. BUT Freeman has a local connection here. - NDavenue - 1:40pm 1/14/21
