Message: [QUOTE="JeremyCuse, post: 4571032, member: 43"] ND has plenty of talent but defensively its trying to integrate a lot of transfers and new pieces. Will certainly get better as the year goes on but I don't know if all the pieces will mesh the way it has in the past when your counting on a bunch of 5th years. Offensively is all about what can they get beyond Pat K. Its one thing to do it against Marquette which they did nicely but can they do it against UVA, Maryland, OSU etc. Riccardelli maybe the answer for them, he looked impressive. I wouldn't couldn't on getting much from Taylor, coming back from his 2nd ACL tear like he did the first seems unlikely and more of a pipe dream assuming he makes it back at all. [/QUOTE]
