When Marcus Freeman took over as Notre Dame’s head football coach in 2021, one of his biggest priorities was improving recruiting. Irish classes were typically good but not great under Brian Kelly, hovering around the outskirts of the top 10 nationally. Freeman believed that the Irish coaching staff had the ability to bring more talent

José Sánchez Córdova, Assistant Managing Editor I expect the Irish to look fairly comfortable against the Chippewas this weekend. Central Michigan’s biggest weapon is quarterback Bert Emanuel Jr., but I believe Notre Dame will limit his mobility and force him to win from the pocket. I think this will lead to another big day for

Notre Dame secured another dominant win Saturday, beating the Tennessee State Tigers 56-3 at Notre Dame Stadium. The Irish improved to 2-0 and continued to impress with another complete performance.

Joche Sanchez Cordova, Assistant Managing Editor This game will be more interesting in the buildup and aftermath than it will be on the field. It’s a historic matchup and I’m glad Notre Dame are using their influence and the brand to give a big stage to a great HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) in

Now, Notre Dame is 3-0 when facing Navy in Ireland, winning in dominant fashion, 42-3. Graduate student quarterback Sam Hartman led the way through the air with 251 passing

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
