I wanted to highlight and give some credit to some of the
underclassmen who have already shown that they have the ability to contribute
to this Notre Dame team sooner than later. Even though we are only two games into the
season some freshman and sophomores have stepped up, admittedly in some cases a
limited roles, and shown their worth.
FRESHMEN
Devin Studstill |
Safety
Devin
Studstill – I know he may be playing a bit out of necessity but 7 tackles
(6 solo) in his first two games is not too bad.
SOPHOMORES
Sophomores Josh Adams,
Justin
Yoon and Jerry
Tillery (who has under achieved a bit so far) are no surprise after last year’s
performances. I will credit them for not
having an early sophomore hangover.
Wide Receiver Equanimeous
St. Brown – He looked ok in limited action last year but this could be a
special year for him with 11 catches so far.
C.J. Sanders |
Linebacker Te’Von Coney
– 8 tackles so far (7 solos and 1 for a loss), building on last season’s start.
Running Back Dexter
Williams – Looked really good against Nevada. I wasn’t sure how much work
he might get after his off-field incident and playing behind Adams and Folston
but don’t be surprised to see this backfield rotate tree running backs this
season.
Receiver / kick Returner C.J
Sanders – Already drawing comparisons to Irish greats of the past and looks
to be an all-purpose yard machine.
Honorable Mention; Chris
Finke
