That is quite telling and pretty sad.....but dont worry, Kizer is a Top Ten pick!
I think the terrible coaching and play calling hasn't done him any good. The quicker he gets away from this ND train wreck, the better IMO....I think he definitely needs some new coaching to excel.

Granted, a soft schedule probably helped, and the defense still did not pass an eye test, but turning this complete train wreck into a semi-competent group ranked in the forties is an accomplishment. Especially considering the offense had so many three-and-outs.
and he was primarily a defensive cheerleader. Don't get me wrong, our guys needed a rah-rah guy after dealing with sour puss VanGonad so Huddy's role was important and he filled it admirably. However, once the Xs and Os were simplified the guys played faster and far less tentatively. IMO, credit for such can't go to Huddy.
Also outgained them in yardage.....but our overall rankings reveal we are a subpar team

We deserve to be 4-8, but that is an impressive turnaround on defense. We were like 109 when he took over.
