We're rolling here on the Irish Breakdown podcast, brought to by our friends over at Fandu.

0:20.8

We get the Bysol hold going on today and keeping us going.

0:23.9

We got Christopher Crosby.

0:26.3

In celebration of draft week, Bysol Hold, Notre Dame will be starting two future first round tackles this season.

0:34.5

Hmm.

0:35.2

I mean, barring injury, I buy that. And I just, it's, it's wild talking about this team. I'm like, we've got some pretty wild takes this offseason, Trevor, where in the past, we'd get these same question type of questions and we'd like, guys, come on. Like, let's pump the brakes a little bit, you know, but now it's like, yeah. I mean, wouldn't it be kind of disappointing if a pair of guys that we graded as five

0:57.2

stars, not what recruiting services graded? I mean, they obviously did as well.

1:01.0

On three had both of these guys as five stars players coming out.

1:04.7

So it's not like we were the only one.

1:06.8

We're the only ones that Will Black.

1:08.4

I mean, on three had Will Black as a five star before anybody, including me. I got to give them credit there. So one of the reasons I've said they don't have a Notre Dame bias in their rankings. They have position group biases and everybody, like they have normal biases like we all have. But it's not an anti-Notor-Name bias. They had Will Black as a top 10 player while other people had them as a three-star. They had Grayson McHugh as a five-star player while other people had him as a three-star. So I'd be a little disappointed if Will Black and Kirby Lambert don't end up his first-round picks. I'll be honest. Yeah. I just think they're that kind of player, so I'll buy that.

1:48.9

Especially once you factor in positional value, too. They're offensive tackles. Those tend to go pretty quickly in the draft and pretty routinely in the first round. So I'm with you.

1:54.8

I'm buying that one as well. Now, despite the losses from last year's team, Miami will actually be better this season,

2:01.7

mainly due to a more dynamic quarterback in year two of a much improved defense.

2:07.5

I buy that.

2:10.4

I don't know, I don't know that I call, I don't know that I'd say Derek Mensa,

2:14.7

Daryon Mentsa's dynamic.

2:17.3

I think he's a great fit for that system.

2:20.2

I mean, he's not a guy that, like, runs a lot.

2:23.0

And for me, a dynamic quarterback, I guess I just kind of think more about a guy that

2:27.6

runs a little bit.

2:28.5

Maybe that's wrong of me.
