A Double Edged Sword


Coach Kelly announced quite a while back that he was changing the timeframe when walk-ons would be permitted to try-out. Most teams, Notre Dame included, conduct try-outs and evaluation personnel during spring practice. Kelly has pushed this back to the fall camp. While not fully explaining the shift, it is apparent that he and his staff will have their hands full installing a new offense (spread) and defense (3-4) as well as evaluating the scholarship talent on-hand.

The other edge of the sword in the fall of course is the influx of freshman and now with a group of walk-ons to evaluate.

I got the overall impression from Kelly’s explanation that he is lukewarm to walk-ons.

Thoughts? Pro and Con?
