- Blocking is an important trait for ND WR in this offense - FoolBear - 4:41pm 12/1/20
- I beg to differ. If you can run the ball you can overpower speed teams however a speed team can - THEISMANCARR - 4:26pm 12/1/20
  - sort of a coin flip - croaker - 8:19pm 12/1/20
- Lenzy was supposed to be the answer there. - Napoleon - 4:20pm 12/1/20
  - Lenzy has it but he's not really developed into a WR. He's playing as an athlete. [NT] - Karamello - 5:57pm 12/1/20
  - BK sounded like Lenzy is finally ready this week [NT] - jrdjr84 - 5:49pm 12/1/20

- Nope, a conference championship is part of the regular season conference schedule. [NT] - Hibakusha - 3:51pm 12/1/20
- I'd say no. To me, post-season is bowl games and playoffs - Turkish - 2:31pm 12/1/20
- Alabama would. [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 11:13am 12/1/20
  - After Watching them play a couple of times I cauldron see why. Very deep team this year... [NT] - whatsamataU - 12:38pm 12/1/20

- of course he will take the job if offered, they wont offer unless they first meet [NT] - DonMiller - 11:06am 12/1/20
- Did he have thoughts on how likely it is Lea gets the offer? [NT] - Napoleon - 9:40am 12/1/20
  - Not really. Just that they all think he’s one of the more impressive people they have met - NDNEIL - 10:54am 12/1/20
    - So, if he is hired before Irish finish season, will Lea stay till the end or abandon ship? [NT] - ELP - 11:26am 12/1/20
      - I’d imagine he will stay and coach if ND is in playoffs - NDNEIL - 7:49am 12/2/20
        I would also assume that would be the case. - Napoleon - 9:51am 12/2/20
      - If someone is employed by someone else, he should coach (and recruit) for them, not the Irish. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 2:02pm 12/1/20
