The 2022-2023 Notre Dame football season began with a mixture of excited expectations tempered with quiet concern. Many questions swirled as Marcus Freeman began his debut season as the 30th head coach in Notre Dame history, taking over after the shocking exit of Brian Kelly to LSU. Freeman had previously served as one of the

The transfer portal has played a major role in Notre Dame athletics lately. The men’s basketball team lost Cormac Ryan to North Carolina through it. Lorenzo Styles, one of Notre Dame’s most exciting receiver prospects a year ago, entered the portal just over 24 hours before the Blue-Gold game. Prince Kollie did the same shortly

The last 24 hours have been a roller coaster for Notre Dame athletics when it comes to the transfer portal. First, Cormac Ryan announced his departure from the men’s basketball program to North Carolina. The hockey team brought in forward Patrick Moynihan from Providence on Friday morning.

Notre Dame head football coach Marcus Freeman began the 2022 season with high expectations placed upon him.

For the third straight year, the Notre Dame football team will likely enter the season with a quarterback who has never started a game for the program. And even if graduate student Sam Hartman surprisingly does not begin the year behind center, junior Tyler Buchner does not exactly bring a wealth of starting experience to

The Notre Dame wide receiver room was a point of weakness in 2022, but there is reason for optimism heading into the 2023 season. The Irish will bring in Sam Hartman, a Wake Forest transfer quarterback who set several ACC records during his tenure with the Demon Deacons. Hartman ranked first in depth of target

All year, Notre Dame junior quarterback Drew Pyne has been judged by virtually everything but the final result. After taking over as the starter, Pyne won eight of his first nine games. He did this without gaudy numbers. Pyne never threw for 300 yards in those nine games. During a three-game winning streak, Pyne completed

Notre Dame scored 44 points last weekend, and they followed it up with 41 points at No. 16 Syracuse. That’s certainly an improvement on the last time they scored 40+ points. That came against North Carolina, at which point the Irish followed with a combined 42 points against BYU and Stanford, two struggling teams with
