It's fathers day so I get to spend a few uninterrupted minutes checking up on my Irish this morning.

A couple things: #1) I think everyone here will agree that Love and Price were a one in a generation (maybe more) backfield combination. They always seemed to find a way. Now they're both gone and it sounds lie we're going back to a running back/ backfield by committee. I'm certainly 'not-in-the-know' about the strength of our backfield (other than Carr) so I am apprehensive about ND's ability to run the ball - especially in the first 2 games. Is the fact that I keep hearing about how great Carr will be (passing) an effort to hide the fact we can't run? Thoughts?

#2) The comment on a different post about a 'legacy joining the class tomorrow' and then someone mentioned Kent Dorfman (Animal House) caused me to spray out the coffee I had just taken a sip of - onto my keyboard! I don't know why it struck me as so funny but I'm still chuckling about it.
