Your weekly dose of Notre Dame news, opinion, and other stuff. 3 News Stories #1 Transfer Doubts Deep down, we all doubted the process and what was happening. After a week and a half of a singular 2-week transfer portal opening, Notre Dame remained with zero commits (if we don't include the new Aussie punter [...]
Your weekly dose of Notre Dame news, opinion, and other stuff. 3 News Stories #1 Assistant Shuffle With the loss of linebackers coach Max Bullough to Michigan State, Marcus Freeman was left with a decision to make on the coaching staff. He didn't wait long to move Al Washington from the defensive line to linebackers. [...]
Your weekly dose of Notre Dame news, opinion, and other stuff. 3 News Stories #1 Freeman's Returning This past Monday, in what was almost assuredly a scheduled tweet, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman announced that he will be returning to Notre Dame following "interest" from the NFL. It's led to relief, appreciation, and maybe [...]
Welcome back to another edition of Five Wide Fullbacks. This was supposed to be the time for a playoff opponent preview to drop, and well that's not happening now is it? We've had plenty of time to have a good cry or two and now we'll dust ourselves off to some regularly scheduled off-season programming. [...]
With the unfortunate news that came this morning in the CFP ranking show, our Notre Dame Fighting Irish’s season has come to a controversial end. While certainly we all have some hard feelings, and rightfully so, all is not lost. This is not an unknown feeling to the Irish community, with an almost identical situation [...]
Today was far less about Notre Dame/Stanford than a bunch of other games with playoff implications for Notre Dame. Almost every single one went badly except for the Irish's game, an easy win that sent ND into whatever postseason it ends up in on a 10-game win streak, each of which with a 99.4% or [...]
I haven't written for this site in quite a while, but none of the other writers wanted to preview this game - can you blame them? - so I volunteered to step in. This is a silly game between an awful Stanford team without a real coach and a Notre Dame team coming off a [...]
Not long ago fans were debating if Jeremiyah Love would get an invite to New York City for the 2025 Heisman ceremony with many believing it probably wasn't going to happen. Fast forward to the eve of the regular season concluding and suddenly Love is an astonishing 3rd across most sportsbooks in the United States [...]
I thought about writing up a draft of this post earlier this morning, assuming it would just be a matter of filling in some details. But then my kid wanted to watch the Knuckles series, so that went by the wayside. The Knuckles series had far more drama than Saturday's game, as Notre Dame utterly [...]
Hello 18S! Quick intro: I’m Mike, and as my handle suggests, I graduated from Notre Dame undergrad in 2011, and stayed on for three more years at Notre Dame Law School. As a tax attorney, I enjoy scenario planning and risk-adjusted thinking, and that’s what brings us to the topic of this article: what’s best [...]
Find yourself a partner who cares as much about you as Pat Narduzzi cares about tweaking Notre Dame. A few days after inexplicably saying his team's matchup against the Irish didn't matter if they won the conference title (which they're not presently in position to do, worth noting), Narduzzi rode two of several ridiculous penalty [...]
The Notre Dame fan base has treated the Navy game largely the same each year under Marcus Freeman (including his year as defensive coordinator): Brief moments of panic early in the game that this is going to be, as some of us put it, the annual trip to the dentist's office, followed by a fairly [...]
Anchors Aweigh! It’s Navy Week That 12-minute 3rd Quarter Boston College Drive last week sure was fun, huh? […]
There were so many terrible things about Notre Dame's 25-10 victory over Boston College Saturday that I'm not sure which one I hated the most. Let's take them in chronological order: Kicking This is an absolute traveshamockery. A presumably fed-up Marcus Freeman benched Noah Burnette after he doinked another PAT and went for 2 after [...]
Notre Dame could've used a bit more chaos in week 9 of the college football calendar. While resting during the bye, a few opportunities for key upsets arose but many of them didn't come through. Besides a shuffle at the top not a ton has changed in our rankings as the Irish prepare for their [...]
