Harvard transfer Smith prepares for bigger role

The Observer | Friday, October 14, 2022

A year ago, Notre Dame’s defensive line was one of the deepest units on the team. But after star defensive linemen Kurt Hinish and Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa graduated and junior Aidan Keanaaina suffered an ACL injury in the spring, it became clear the Irish needed reinforcements.  When Notre Dame brought in Chris Smith, a graduate transfer

Lacey enters transfer portal three weeks after two-sack performance

Joseph Tunney | Friday, October 7, 2022

Three weeks ago, Jacob Lacey was making big-time plays on the field for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

Position group breakdown: Defensive line

Observer Sports Staff | Thursday, April 2, 2020
