Notre Dame Kicks Off Fall Camp

Notre Dame kicked off practice at 10 a.m. at the LaBar Practice Field for the 2012 season. The first question for Fighting Irish Football fans is, "What's going on with the Quarterback situation?" On the first day, according to several media outlets and online videos that are available, Golson ran with the first group. Does this mean that Everett is currently the front-runner for the position? Probably not. Assuming it is a fair and equal competition, Andrew Hendrix would most likely get those reps tomorrow. In other words, someone always has to go first.

Notre Dame also released a depth chart today detailing the team at the beginning of the fall camp. Of course, it had Golson OR Hendrix listed. Cierre Wood gets the nod over Theo Riddick despite being unable to practice early on in the media sessions. The Freshman player who cracked the two-deep on offense was Davonte Neal who looked very quick and fast in all videos available for consumption online currently. The other two Freshman Wide Receivers looked skinny at this point. It appears that they could add about 10 to 20 pounds of muscle before they are genuinely prepared to play.

On defense, the first team currently is Stephon Tuitt, Kapron Lewis-Moore, Kona Schwenke, Manti Te'o, Dan Fox, Danny Spond, Prince Shembo, Lo Wood, Bennett Jackson, Jamoris Slaughter and Zeke Motta. Again, only one Freshman cracked the two-deep and that was Sheldon Day . Based on need and skill, Day will most likely play a lot this year.

In other news from today's practice, Brad Carrico went on a medical scholarship. This essentially means that he will no longer be with the team. The medical scholarships do not count towards the original 85 scholarships.
