Whiskey,

Sorry for your misery. Here is the part that always stumps me. Teams like Notre Dame, Michigan and Penn State recruit the same exact kids. They are all from the same geographic region (mostly), the same high school all stars, the same size and speed. All three schools have great coaches with very experienced staff.

So what is it that makes one team of players of the same caliber just fall apart? Is it bad chemistry or no team cohesion? Something is going on behind the scenes because everything else is roughly equal. :?

I think in ND's case. They are just a young team. Jimmy Clausen is going to be good, some day. He was called the LeBron James of High School football. The O line, which is the biggest problem has 3 sophomores and 3 new starters. ND's class of 2008 is supposed possible #1 in the nation.

You can only recruit on tradition for so long. Why would someone come to cold, lame, South Bend, Indiana and play for average ND team, when you could go to Florida and win championships, and lay on beach full of bikinis?

I wouldnt call Jone's primary Sharpley and Clausen are better than him. He just saw that the ship was sinking and got out.
