Mukam was always a developmental prospect and seems to have been unlocked by Partridge

I liked Al Washington, but it seems pretty clear based on what Partridge has done on the recruiting trail and with development that Notre Dame has improved drastically here.

Reports are Keon Keeley also progressed a lot too so far under Partridge. Now imagine what he'll do for the production from Traore and Young. This defensive line could end up taking over a lot of games this fall.
