I don't care if Wiess has only 1 year in college. Being allowed to play for a guy who knows offense and proven it in the NFL like him. He'll get the players. That offense will be plenty good. I think a more important note is probably not record but given the 2 choices who you would take. And most everyone would take Weiss 7 days a week and twice on Saturday in that comparison.

Charlie Weiss, the "offensive genius" of the NFL.

2002 21st
2003 17th
2004 7th
2005 7th

Boy, they sure fell of without Charlie....
The defense dropped 17 spots without Romeo Crennel, though.
Yes, I'd still take Novak over Weiss, but of course JT over anyone.

Ok enough about Notre Dame.

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/index#
Editor's note: The 3-point stance will move to a Tuesday/Thursday schedule until August.
Thursday, June 1
1. Coaches have made it to June 1, which means May recruiting is over, which means vacation, right? Not quite. June means summer camps, which have become an important recruiting tool for incoming seniors. Coaches have to make sure they get their top prospects to camp. Vacation these days is early July -- maybe.
2. Brady Quinn is on every Heisman short list, which is part of being a star Notre Dame quarterback. But did you realize three returning passers finished ahead of him in efficiency last season? Everyone knows Brian Brohm of Louisville, but keep an eye on Rudy Carpenter of Arizona State and Phil Horvath of Northern Illinois.
3. Speaking of the Huskies, they also have the top returning rusher in Garrett Wolfe, who is followed by Marshawn Lynch of California and Tyrell Sutton of Northwestern. Three teams will face Wolfe and Sutton next season: Eastern Michigan, Miami (Oh.), and ? Ohio State.

Ok then, let’s take a look at so<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName> recent top rushers. Last years top rushers present your best case for scary backs:
1. D Williams – <st1:City w:st="on"><ST1:pMemphis</ST1:place</st1:City>
2. J Harrison –<st1:State w:st="on"><ST1:pWashington</ST1:p</st1:State>
3. R Bush
4. B Calhoun –<st1:State w:st="on">Wisconsin</ST1:p</st1:State>
5.G Wolfe
<O:p</O:p
Obviously we all know about Bush and Williams and likely Calhoun. J Harrison obviously I have heard of, but I can’t tell you where he was drafted. I don’t think he projects as star NFL tailback.
<O:p</O:p
In 04 another nice stable:
1. JJ Arrington – <st1:State w:st="on"><ST1:pCal</ST1:p</st1:State>
2. D Williams – <st1:City w:st="on"><ST1:pMemphis</ST1:p</st1:City>
3. A Peterson - OU
4. Cedric Benson - UT
5. J Thomas - <ST1:pN Texas</ST1:p
<O:p></O:p>
Peterson and Benson are obviously good. Arrington was so good the Cardinals decided to give <st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName>ga bucks to Edgerrin Ja<st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName>s. Where does J Thomas play now? (Only answer if you know off the top of your head because I can’t)
<O:p</O:p
In 03:
1. D Sproles – <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Kansas ST</st1:address></st1:Street>
2. D Night – BC
3. P Cobbs - <ST1:pN Texas</ST1:p
4. C. Perry scUM
5. M .Turner NIU

In 02:
1. M. Moore Tulane
2. J Harris – Purdue
3. P Reed <ST1:p- W Michigan</ST1:p
4. L <ST1:p<st1:City w:st="on">Hobb -</st1:City></ST1:p TCU
5. H Jackson – UTEP
<O:p</O:p
Let’s make a rundown of what we know on top of our head for 02 – 03. We know what Sproles did against the tOSU. Perry was pretty good against tOSU (now a Bengal</ST1:p and it hurts a little). Perry was also a big back, so<st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName>thing that has given tOSU trouble now and again. Turner is the back-up for LT in <st1:City w:st="on">San Diego</ST1:p</st1:City> right?(I very well could be wrong, but re<st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName>mber this is off the top of my head.) M Moore is a decent pro in <st1:State w:st="on">Minnesota</ST1:p</st1:State>. Who and where is everyone else? Beats <st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName>. So to get to the point of this post: clearly being a top rusher in the NCAA doesn’t <st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName>an you are a great back. It very well could <st1:PersonName w:st="on">me</st1:PersonName>an that you are playing with a superior line talent to the surrounding team’s inferior defensive talent. NIU’s line won’t be superior to tOSU’s defense. It’s not yet proven that Wolfe is a superior talent. So big deal if he is the NCAA’s returning leading rusher.
