Since the start of ACC play, Notre Dame has been in a dogfight trying to scratch its way into the NCAA tournament. Many commentators and pundits have counted the Irish out at multiple points in the past month, but Mike Brey’s squad has managed to tread water and avoid mathematical elimination from March Madness. Over

Heading into Saturday’s home game against Virginia Tech, Notre Dame knew it would be a little shorthanded. After all, the team has been without senior forward Bonzie Colson for its last six games and freshman wing D.J. Harvey for most of the last two. However, the Irish (13-7, 3-4 ACC) found out Thursday that the

Alright, let’s start with the obvious: Notre Dame misses Bonzie Colson. Losers of four straight, the Irish (13-7, 3-4 ACC) have seen themselves fall back to Earth after an improbable 3-0 start in conference play given the laundry list of injuries — Colson, a senior forward, will be sidelined until March, senior guard Matt Farrell missed

After two close losses to No. 15 North Carolina and Louisville — which Irish head coach Mike Brey called “gut punches” — Notre Dame looks to respond Saturday in a tilt with No. 20 Clemson. The Irish (13-6, 3-3 ACC) find themselves in a precarious position in the ACC following the two heartbreaking losses. With

After Notre Dame’s loss to North Carolina on Sunday, Mike Brey announced Matt Farrell would be back in the starting lineup come Tuesday’s game against Louisville. Brey said the team needed Farrell back to energize the offense. Farrell did start and his 23 points and eight assists certainly energized the Irish. But for the second

When senior forward Bonzie Colson went down with a fractured foot, the number of games Notre Dame was expected to win dropped drastically. When senior guard Matt Farrell went down with a sprained ankle, many predicated the Irish would be dead in the water in the brutal ACC conference schedule. But Saturday night at Purcell

No Bonzie Colson. No Matt Farrell. No problem? Well, there were some problems for Notre Dame, but not enough to prevent the Irish (13-3, 3-0 ACC) from picking up a third-straight win to open conference play — this time on the road over Syracuse in a 51-49 contest at the Carrier Dome. “I’ve been at

Over his 18 years as head coach of the Notre Dame men’s basketball team, perhaps the most successful traits Mike Brey has honed are how to get the most out of his players and to simply find a way to win. In order to pass Digger Phelps for first place in the school’s all-time coaching

Before it travels to Hawaii to compete at the Maui Invitational next week, Notre Dame took care of business at home Thursday night, defeating Chicago State 105-66. Sophomore guard T.J. Gibbs led the Irish with a career-high 23 points, senior guard Matt Farrell poured in 18 and freshman forward D.J. Harvey contributed a career-high 16

Everyone is familiar with the saying, “Defense wins championships.” And while No. 14 Notre Dame has plenty of games to go before it is playing for a championship, it was its defense that won it Friday’s exhibition game with neighboring NAIA foe Bethel. With 11:25 to go in the second half, the Irish allowed another
