Secondary picture still fluid as spring closes

Renee Griffin | Friday, April 15, 2016

The images of Ohio State running and passing all over an injury-wracked Irish secondary in the Fiesta Bowl have hardly faded, making the open competitions at the cornerback and safety positions this spring all the more significant. By the end of 2015, Notre Dame’s ranks of defensive backs were so depleted that senior receiver Torii

Notre Dame hosts 17 former players at Pro Day

Marek Mazurek | Friday, April 1, 2016

17 former Irish players participated in Notre Dame’s Pro Day in front of scouts from 31 NFL teams Thursday at Loftus Sports Center. Of the 17 participants, a handful — including offensive linemen Ronnie Stanley and Nick Martin, linebacker Jaylon Smith and receiver Will Fuller — are projected to be first-round or second-round draft picks. “[It’s] great,”

Kelly recaps decommit-free National Signing Day

Mary Green | Thursday, February 4, 2016

When Irish coaches woke up Wednesday morning, they expected to officially add 22 players to their 2016 recruiting class. But by the end of the day, they had 24 — including each in the original 22-player group. In a time when decommitments, especially close to or even on National Signing Day, have become more and

Kelly addresses Shumate’s ejection, Kizer’s growth

Alex Carson | Tuesday, November 3, 2015

Early in the fourth quarter of No. 8 Notre Dame’s 24-20 win over No. 23 Temple on Saturday, safety Elijah Shumate was ejected from the contest for targeting, meaning the senior will miss the first half of this Saturday’s matchup at Pittsburgh — a penalty Irish head coach Brian Kelly said was irreversible. “There is no appeal process,” Kelly

Just enough: Irish top Temple in comeback, 24-20

Mary Green | Monday, November 2, 2015

PHILADELPHIA — For a minute there — actually, two minutes and 36 seconds — it looked grim for No. 9 Notre Dame at Lincoln Financial Field. It looked grim for Notre Dame’s playoff résumé, for Will Fuller and Mike McGlinchey’s Philadelphia homecoming, for the large and loud collection of Irish fans gathered among Saturday’s sellout

Irish overcome setbacks to keep playoff hopes alive

Greg Hadley | Monday, November 2, 2015

PHILADELPHIA — Plagued by injuries, slow starts and surprisingly game opponents, No. 9 Notre Dame has had its fair share of setbacks this season. Saturday night against Temple was no different. Twice in the second quarter, the Irish marched down the field into the Owls red zone. Twice sophomore quarterback DeShone Kizer threw interceptions. The

Sky-rocketing: Elijah Shumate

Zach Klonsinski | Friday, October 30, 2015

It’s not often Irish head coach Brian Kelly uses the word “sky-rocketing” to describe one of his players. But that’s exactly what Kelly said when asked about the improvement shown this year by senior safety Elijah Shumate. “Wish I had him for another couple years,” Kelly said. “He’s really coming into his own.” In seven

Irish secondary works through growing pains

Greg Hadley | Friday, October 16, 2015

If last season was the only guide, USC graduate student quarterback Cody Kessler would be glad to see the Notre Dame secondary when he takes his first snap Saturday night. In the Trojans’ 49-14 victory in 2014, Kessler torched the Irish defensive backs for six touchdowns, 372 yards and an 80 percent completion percentage. But

Defense steps up in second half to lead ND to win

Daniel O'Boyle | Monday, October 12, 2015

As Notre Dame and Navy left the field at the end of the first half, it appeared the Irish woes at defending the triple-option had returned. The Irish defense looked nothing like the unit that shut down Georgia Tech for more than three quarters Sept. 19, as the Midshipmen ran for 239 yards in 28

Carson: Irish respond well in tough spots against Navy

Alex Carson | Monday, October 12, 2015

In the first 132 seconds, Navy kicked off, forced an Irish three-and-out and scored on a three-play, 70-yard drive to take an early 7-0 lead against No. 15 Notre Dame at Notre Dame Stadium. It was the perfect start for the visitors, and the perfect way an upset might have gotten underway on a different day — a
