Men’s basketball news and notes Notre Dame head men’s basketball coach Mike Brey communicated with Tom Noie of ND Insider and the South Bend Tribune to discuss scheduling for the upcoming season. Firstly, according to Noie, Notre Dame will not make a return trip to Washington D.C. this season to take on Howard. The Irish

Editor’s Note: An earlier version of this story was published online March 17. Not even St. Patrick’s Day could bring some luck to the Irish on Saturday. For the last few years of its success, Notre Dame has built its program into one that can shoot from beyond the arc, pass the ball around the

Tuesday night saw the Irish face a very different challenge than the ones they have in the past few weeks. Last week, Notre Dame had to contend with Duke freshman forward Marvin Bagley III and a 21-point deficit to Virginia Tech in the ACC tournament. The challenge on Tuesday night? Getting over not making the

A month ago, Mike Brey said if his team squinted, it could see the bubble. Two weeks ago, Brey said he could see the bubble without squinting. But while Notre Dame could see the bubble, hear the bubble and maybe even smell the bubble, the Irish couldn’t quite grab a spot in the NCAA tournament’s

It would have been a huge win for the Irish. Notre Dame has never knocked off a No. 1 team on the road, but a win over top-ranked Virginia would have put the Irish squarely in the NCAA tournament picture. The Irish (18-13, 8-10 ACC) played the Cavaliers (27-3, 17-1) tough, but in the end,

The Irish needed Wednesday. It was an emotional Senior Night victory over bottom-dwelling Pittsburgh that featured the Lithuanian national anthem, Bonzie Colson’s sister singing the U.S. national anthem and a triumphant return by Colson to the Notre Dame lineup. But now, the Irish (18-12, 8-9 ACC) need Saturday, where a chance to pick up a

It had Lithuanian flags. It had Bonzie Colson’s sister sing the national anthem. But most importantly, it had an Irish victory. In other words, it was the perfect Senior Night for Notre Dame (18-12, 8-9 ACC), as the Irish sent their seniors off with a 73-56 win over Pittsburgh. “It was surreal,” Irish senior guard

A late three by senior guard Matt Farrell kept the Irish’s NCAA hopes alive and helped seal a second half comeback against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons 76-71. Despite not having success closing out games recently, the Irish (17-12, 7-9 ACC) were able to make plays down the stretch against the Demon Deacons (11-18, 4-13

Notre Dame’s chances to qualify for the NCAA tournament have narrowed to slim to none at this point in the year. But the Irish will look to keep that chance alive when they travel to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, to take on Wake Forest on Saturday. After another home loss against Miami on Monday night, the

Prior to Monday night’s tipoff against Miami (FL), Notre Dame found out it would be getting Bonzie Colson back very soon. The All-American and senior forward was dressed for action, and it was announced that he would be expected to make his return for Senior Night on Feb. 28 against Pittsburgh. It seemed like that
