Talking Irish

With a strong offensive pedigree Brain Kelly has done a great job recruiting on the defensive side of the ball.  The defensive backfield is the next recruiting frontier the Irish will embark on.  With strong recruits on the defense line Kelly seems to be directing his staff to build relationships with high school defensive backs.  Kelly has an eye and philosophy for athletic talent and position assignments will come together later.  I think the class of 2012 will yield fast and multi talented corners and safeties.  We may also see highly touted wide receivers recruited to South Bend as defensive backs.
