So let's get into part three, Trevor, and this will be a little bit quicker of a shorter segment.

What are some things that Notre Dame needs to do to get rolling on offense and defense moving

forward? And we'll start with the offense and then we'll finish things up with the defense.

And so part number, part one, when you look at the offense, we talked about you got to get

the quarterback going. Okay. That's a given.

But that's not the only answer.

Or there are some answers that are good for other things that will then also help the quarterback.

One thing is, I get, like, I get as a coach, like fans only saw A&M in Northern Illinois, and they just think,

well, that must be what was happening every single day.

And I've tried to explain to people, that's not how football works.

You have some guys that are really good in practice.

They're not good on Saturdays.

You've had some guys that aren't very good in practice and they not good on Saturdays. You've had some guys that aren't very good in practice,

and they're great on Saturdays.

I've coached players like that.

Best receiver I ever coach was a mediocre practice player physically.

Mentally he was locked in, but physically he was a super tightly wound athlete,

couldn't get as loose on practice days as he would as he would get on game day when the

for whatever it was the adrenaline of game day would loosen him up a lot more than it was on

practice i had another kid who just couldn't mentally lock in the same way he did on same he would he

legitimately 50 50 in practice on contested throws and then you'd get into game day and it was like 90-10.

If it got thrown up to him, he was coming down with it.
