Which is surprising to me as I tend to remember his Notre Dame teams having pedestrian, game managing qb types of offenses that relied on stout defensive play to win games.
Not that I followed Notre Dame super close, but I've seen a handful of their games over the years during the BK era.
Well I guess when your offense is firing on all cylinders it's easier to recruit offensive players. We have JD to thank for that. Brad Davis, our OL coach, is probably the best recruiter on staff. On the other hand, our putrid defense doesn't inspire much confidence if you're a recruit, and most of them know that most if not all of our defensive staff are about to be replaced, so they don't know who would be coaching them next season.

That makes sense about recruiting. I meant however that the identity of BK's LSU having such and explosive offense and such a terrible defense is what surprised me in the first place given the track record of past teams.
Then again, he has shown an ability to make changes and adjustments in the past, so maybe the type of talent he has at a place like LSU leant itself to have offenses like that which he never could do at ND.
