Pgard I don't think you get it. Weis is a true offensive genius. Last year he was hired kind of late and had to dive in and try and get recruiting done, run spring practice, and had to implement offensive plays each week through the season because of the complexity of what he does. This year, with the kids having been given the plays to study and learn months ago, and teh experience Quinn has in his system now, you are gonna be watching an offensive show that will be dazzling. Noone is arguing that the ND defense has holes in it. But you have to understand, opposing teams will be trying to cover and hold back offensive schemes and patterns that they have never seen in their lives, not in high school or college.
I think you underestimate what kind of Coach Weis is. You are talking about the guy who made Tom Brady and won 3 rings with small market team in the NFL. His schemes and breakdown of other teams videotape are legendary. Expect a lot of worn out to hell db's in the second half of ND games this year.
