Sprinting Coach/Athlete: Knowing to much about sprinting can be detrimental!

but it’s 2 games into his career. It’s 2 games against 2 so-so teams. Brian Kelly is in his first season, so ND is nowhere near what they will be 3 years from now. Their secondary was weak as well. Both UConn and ND moved the ball rather easily. U of M will need to outscore everyone to win. That defense is not going to stop quality teams. Any team with a ball control offense and a strong defense is a real problem for Michigan. DR is on bench, he is no threat from there. Like I said, Pryor is not someone I think is great, but he has proven himself to be a better QB than DR over more games. He is close to as fast and twice the size of DR. Trust me, RR would be starting Pryor if he was at U of M. I think DR has a bright future if he can stay healthy. I certainly wouldn’t want my QB carrying the ball 25+ times per game. He is small and it will take it’s toll. We have seen 2 games, and we have seen him writhing on the ground in pain for 2 games. If they don’t get some run game, he is going to get killed. I am optimistic, but it is 2 games and it’s 2 games against mediocre teams. I will come on here and tell you you are correct if he does it all season. I have my doubts whether or not he can throw accurately downfield. He was way off the mark on most throws over the top yesterday. Most completions were underneath on bail coverage. What is he going to do when a good fast D plays bump and run man and puts 8 in the box and forces him to throw downfield?

All great points.

What Big10 team has a fast defense?
