3. Eight Men In?
Notre Dame conceivably
could rotate eight players,
maybe even nine, at re‑
ceiver, according to Fight‑
ing Irish wideouts coach
Mike Denbrock.
Senior TJ Jones and ju‑
nior DaVaris Daniels are on
their own level, but after that
it's a free-for-all.
Sophomore Chris Brown and
freshman William Fuller are the top
speed merchants, senior Daniel Smith
and freshman James Onwualu pro‑
vide more of a physical presence,
6-4¼ freshman Corey Robin‑
son is the most dangerous
fade or "jump ball" option
…
"It really depends on
what part of the game it is,
what type of mode we're in offen‑
sively," said Denbrock on who to play.
"We're going to roll a lot of personnel
in and out of the game. I could see
us playing as many as eight or nine
guys during the year.
"It's going to be by com‑
mittee for the most part.
They all have certain quali‑
ties about them that they
do very well, and we're go‑
ing to try to utilize those the
best we can."

deeper units is safety — despite the

eight or nine players who could see action at wide
receiver for the Irish this fall.
