This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I do believe Kelly would pollute Jurkovec by Hanratty5ND

I said in my first sentence that Kelly is the bigger problem.

It probably doesn't matter who plays QB with Kelly as HC--but I was just stating that I don't think Book has skill set needed to lead ND to a playoff win or more.

If you look at the 4 teams in the playoffs last year--the other 3 had superior QB's(and Coaches). I don't think Saban,Swiney or Riley would recruit or even play a QB like Book who could not threaten the back end of a defense.
It is a shame that ND will waste some fine Sophomore speed at WR because the QB can't get the ball downfield. Last year, I think ND had only 1 pass play of over 50 yards. No matter how much Book practices the deep ball--he will never be a real threat with it.
