So I was talking to my mom the other day (huge Irish and Packer fan) and I was showing her the website NDLNA.com. I was explaining to her all the site had to offer and how to maneuver around the site. She then stated that she was kind of lost this year on the players and wanted to get to know them a little better. Instead of calling Charlie Weis and straight pimp mom off to the defensive line, I thought I would give a little rundown on some of the players this year.
I love Wu-Tang, my mom loves Wu-Tang, and you should love Wu-Tang as well. With that being said, I am going to attach the Wu-Name for each player in this 36 man list. This list is by NO means a depth chart run down (I’ll get to that on a later post), but more of a list of players that should have ample playing time this year.
If you would like your own Wu-Name, follow this LINK and it will provide you with one. I’ll give two players a post and have a new post every few days or so until finished…
Robert Hughes #33
Running Back
5’11” 238 lbs.
Sophomore
Chicago, Illinois
Wu-Name: Arrogant Menace
Hughes is a fucking animal. Seriously. He is a cross between a rhino and a gazelle. He runs with so much power and yet has some very swift feet. He should see the bulk of the carries out of the backfield this year and honestly, he needs around 20-25 touches to be truly effective. He will, no doubt, take over the goaline back duties. You will also hear me refer to him as “The Chi-Town Colossal Ass-Kicker” as well.
Sam Young #74
Right Tackle
6’8″ 330 lbs.
Junior
Coral Springs, Florida
Wu-Name: Phantom Dominator
Sam Young came to South Bend as a highly recruited 5 star prospect. He has started every game since in his career at Notre Dame. While he played very well at right tackle his freshman year, he was forced over to the left side last year due to a wrist injury. He isn’t a left tackle. He is a force on the right side however and the Irish should see holes the size of Dick-Rod’s mouth on his side. The Irish must have Young perform at his best this year if they intend on moving the ball on the ground efficiently.
Now a little reminder of what being the C.R.E.A.M. of the crop really is…
