Greg DienerHOST
Okay, BTN, Chris Busters and Anthony Heron doing Purdue at Illinois.
Greg DienerHOST
Then at 6, we got on USA, Ted Robinson and Darius Walker calling Oregon State at Colorado State.
Greg DienerHOST
Then let's get into the night games.
Greg DienerHOST
Actually, for 7 o'clock on ESPN, we have BYU at TCU with Tom Hart, Rowdy Jones, and Chris Kucinich.
Pat HadenSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
They had a three and out, an interception, and a... been a three and out and you know it always falls on your quarterback brady quinn the sophomore had a pretty solid season last year starting nine games as a true freshman they just need to find a player or players that can go 20 or 30 yards and i think
Tom HammondSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
maybe one of them's in there now darius walker the freshman from lawrenceville georgia highly touted makes his first appearance fake it to him quinn rolling He's going to keep it, and Brady Quinn, 10 times down the sideline, stepped out of bounds.
Tom HammondSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He had a big, long game, but he'll be marked out of bounds at the 21-yard line instead.
Tom HammondSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Marcus Freeman walking for him.
Pat HadenSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
and they're looking for somebody to replace the plus 20-yard gains that Julius Jones had last year.
Pat HadenSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He had most of the team's dynamic plays, and they need somebody like that.
Pat HadenSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It's going to come from Darius Walker or Carlisle Holliday, one of the wide receivers, because it's hard, very hard to be methodical and drive 80 yards every time you get the ball.
Tom HammondSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Pitch to Grant on third down, trying to turn the corner.
Tony RobertsHOST
Okay, Coach, heading into this one this afternoon, you've got to be pretty pleased with where your team is, especially offensively.
Tony RobertsHOST
Can you kind of give us a report card on Brady Quinn, Darius Walker, Samarja? I mean, you've got some good weapons there on your side of the football as well.
Charlie WeisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Well, I'd say that we've been solid in every position on offense.
Charlie WeisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I think the play of the offensive line, the play of the tight ends, the play of the wide receivers, the play of the running back, and the play of the quarterback.
17 MINS LATER
Tony RobertsHOST
and
Alan PinkettSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
pass when it is most brutal well you know and i talked to charlie about that i say do you is this a game where you want to try and slow it down and You know, he wants to do a combination of both.
Alan PinkettSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He's not going to be mad if Darius Walker breaks a 60-yarder and scores.
Alan PinkettSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The most important thing is scoring.
Tony RobertsHOST
So here come the Irish now with Brady Quinn at quarterback.
Tony RobertsHOST
Darius Walker, the lone setback.
Tony RobertsHOST
You have a double tight end.
Tony RobertsHOST
You have...
Tony RobertsHOST
Moves straight ahead, gets past the 30-yard line up to about the 31 or 32.
Tony RobertsHOST
Very close to a first down.
Tony RobertsHOST
Good beer running by Darius Walker because he saw he wasn't going to be able to get to the outside, so he just made a straight line on a sharp cut.
Tony RobertsHOST
to about the 31-yard line.
Bob GrieseHOST
This offense has 10 offensive starters returning.
Bob GrieseHOST
Darius Walker, the running back, Quinn, and nine others, seven other guys, eight other guys, can make this offense
Brad NesslerHOST
really good.
Brad NesslerHOST
So there's part of the battery in the backfield for Notre Dame.
6 MINS LATER
Brad NesslerHOST
Second down and four.
Brad NesslerHOST
The ball right at the 30-yard line.
Brad NesslerHOST
Here comes Darius Walker for the first down.
Brad NesslerHOST
He's got a first down and out of bounds as he crossed the 35-yard line.
Tim HydeHOST
It's like, yeah, just a couple.
Tim HydeHOST
Someone mentioned these backs with comparing them to Darius Walker.
Tim HydeHOST
And I'm like, Darius Walker is better than all these
Mike SingerHOST
guys.
Mike SingerHOST
I think Tony Jones.
Tim HydeHOST
But if you even want to go back more, cause Notre Dame's had some NFL backs.
Tim HydeHOST
They've had some studs.
Tim HydeHOST
So Darius Walker was in a solid running back.
John BricePANELIST
What a voluptuous change.
John BricePANELIST
"Is Darius Walker the best comp for Nolan James?" And Bill Coffee says, "Excellent vision, balance, falls forward, great in the pa- passing game, throw game.
John BricePANELIST
But lacks top-end speed, and therefore may not have many explosive runs.
John BricePANELIST
This moment reminds me of 2005, 2006, and a similar lack of explosive runs on two great offenses." Timothy O'Malley, the floor is yours.
Pete SampsonHOST
You know, I thought about this one.
Pete SampsonHOST
Somebody must have mentioned it on our board too.
Pete SampsonHOST
I felt like Darius Walker was smoother than Nolan James, and James is a little more rugged, like breaking through the, like the gliding on the ground thing.
Pete SampsonHOST
Nolan James gets first contact and breaks through it.
Tim HydeHOST
The third game, you got Micah Gilbert acting like he's, you know, Will Fuller and Michael Floyd out there.
Tim HydeHOST
And you got Nolan James running like he's, you know, Kyron Williams and Darius Walker from 20 years ago.
Tim HydeHOST
So I think every, and this is, you know, every damn game has been more positive than the next.
Tim HydeHOST
That's just the way I've looked at these three games.
John WarrenHOST
I have a quick question for you, Sam.
John WarrenHOST
Did you, did you listen to Ted Robinson and Darius Walker and how did they do on the USA coverage?
SamAUDIENCE
Well, you see, I didn't.
SamAUDIENCE
Okay.
Tim HydeHOST
I'm looking at his stat line, the 26 for 121.
Tim HydeHOST
I just, instantly think about Darius Walker, who's the same size, the same type of shiftiness.
Tim HydeHOST
You reminded me a lot and watching that game, like Darius is big games against Michigan.
Tim HydeHOST
And, you know, so he, I mean, Darius Walker was, was the guy, but you know, Notre Dame, as I talked about the other day, In 2006, when Brady Quinn won the Maxwell and was the Heisman finalist, he only averaged 125 a yard game rushing.
Tim HydeHOST
And it was all Darius Walker.
Tim HydeHOST
So Nolan James had a Darius Walker type of game there.
Tim HydeHOST
But hey, the biggie, how about CJ Carr, a little QB power for the power touchdown, man.
Tim HydeHOST
a nice poll by nap and kick out by Aeneas Williams.
