BGI recruiting analysts David McKinney and Corey Bodden talk all things Notre Dame recruiting.
Notre Dame needs to get good play from its quarterback and better play from its defense if it wants to make a run at the 2016 College Football Playoffs. But which is more important.

Blue Gold Illustrated senior editor Lou Somogyi and football analyst Bryan Driskell debate that point.
There is certainly a lot happening within the Notre Dame football team. Over the weekend, six Notre Dame players were arrested and senior safety Max Redfield was dismissed from the team.

Depth at safety and how the recent arrests will impact each player involved are certainly topics of conversion. Also discussed is how Notre Dame can make the two quarterbacks system work, and the dangers that could be presented.
