Latest news and updates about the Notre Dame
We are only three months into 2026, but the Notre Dame already has 9 commitments for its 2027 football recruiting class. So, since we are well underway — here’s how the scholarship breakdown is for 2027. Please keep in mind that there may be a few “mistakes” here and there. I generally like to keep […]
Recruiting has picked up a little steam for Notre Dame Football and they are on a little bit of a roll at running back. On Monday, 4-Star RB Isaiah Rogers gave his public commitment to Notre Dame and its 2027 football recruiting class. The 6’0” 205 pound running back from Springfield Central High School in […]
There are moments in Notre Dame history that don’t just mark a new season—they signal the beginning of something far greater. Moments where hope quietly replaces uncertainty. Moments where you don’t yet know what’s coming . . . but you feel that something is about to change. In the fall of 1986, Notre Dame found […]
The bad news for the Notre Dame basketball continues as Ryder Frost will be following Garrett Sundra and Sir Mohammed into the transfer portal. Our football-fried minds are likely trained to tune out the number “three” as something small and replaceable — especially when it comes to non-starters. This is, however, most definitely NOT football, […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Notre Dame has kind of a wonderful problem this season. While the Irish aren’t very deep […]
With Pro Day here for the Notre Dame football program, there will be a lot of focus on what the 40 yard dash times will be from the players that weren’t at the combine — and from some that want to improve on their times. There are a lot of players that want in on […]
We are just about a month away from the 2026 NFL Draft, and it is shaping up to be a good one for the Notre Dame football program. Collectively, the Irish players that went down to the NFL Combine did a nice job, but there are a handful of guys that weren’t at the combine […]
When the NCAA spit the fenching national championsship back to men’s and women’s from the co-ed format they had — do you think they thought about doubling up Notre Dame’s national championship trophies from here to kingdom com? They should, because male or female — Notre Dame keeps winning the ship. Notre Dame Fencing: NATIONAL […]
Notre Dame began its spring practice season for football to the delight of many. Obviously it’s just the first day of practice, many (many) players are either out or limited, and it’s not full contact yet as they were in helmets and shells. Taking too much away from the first day is dangerous to anyone’s […]
After an opening day of straight chalk, we welcome Day 2 of the 2026 NCAA Tournament. The three other No. 1-seed are in action, as well as three of the four No. 8-vs.-No. 9 matchups, which are always expected to be the tightest contests. I’m particularly interested in two of those games, because they involve […]
Joshua, Jude, and Brendan are a group of hungry bears, and are waking up from some winter hibernation for gas station hot dogs and the start of Notre Dame Football’s spring practice season. In this episode: And plenty more weaved in and out of the show, Please RATE and REVIEW! All reviews left on Apple […]
Notre Dame officially started the spring football season on Wednesday with a combination press conference, which of course, had Marcus Freeman front and center taking questions from the media. Either sometime durong or shortly after, I received a DM from a colleague simply saying this… “Marcus is so good man.” Obviously, he’s right. Marcus is […]
Over the past several years, I’ve had the incredible privilege of writing three non-fiction books about former Notre Dame student-athletes—along with a cookbook and a children’s book. Through those stories, I’ve tried to capture something special: the way Notre Dame shapes the people who pass through her doors. In the Echoes from Notre Dame book […]

The Philadelphia Flyers have signed one of their prospects to an Entry-Level Contract after his collegiate career wrapped up earlier this month. Cole Knuble, out of the University of Notre Dame, has signed his rookie deal with the Flyers on Tuesday afternoon. It was almost a guarantee that this was going to happen shortly after his Notre Dame team were knocked out of the Big 10 playoffs by the University of Michigan last Wednesday. And now after taking a week or so to put pen to paper, he...
On Monday, the family of legendary Notre Dame head coach, Lou Holtz, laid him to rest during a public funeral mass at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, and a private burial. Here are some of the images from this somber day. In some ways, it was more than fitting that a Notre Dame legend […]
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are predicted to have a massive season in 2026 and are one of the favorites to win a national championship. Notre Dame’s roster is stacked, but they do have to replace a generational backfield in running backs Jadarian Price and Jeremiyah Love. The key player to take that leap to […]
When the Notre Dame Football program decided to opt out of the bowl game after being screwed by the college football playoff committee, the columns and podcasts by Notre Dame haters went LUDICROUS SPEED and condemned the decision. There was a large contingent of media members that decided to ignore the reasons why the Irish […]
The Notre Dame and college football off-season used to be a lot different, but that was a long time ago. Once conference expansion mania started in 2010, the off-season has been one big clusterbomb of strangeness. It started with conference expansion, then it moved to a college football playoff, then the NIL and transfer portal […]
It’s funny how in the most technologically advanced time in human history, with the ability to record and store seemingly every moment of life, that public figures continue to lie their asses of to rewrite recent history. Sure, the masses have proved to be sheep in many aspects, and will buy the nonsense right away […]

Saturday is the final day of regular season ACC Action, and it’s a busy day. Three noon games as Virginia Tech visits Virginia, Notre Dame takes on Boston College, and, win or lose, Georgia Tech plays its last game of the season at Clemson. In the 2:00 hour, Louisville checks in at Miami, SMU visits […]
In a SB Nation Reacts survey, we asked fans if they thought Marcus Freeman would still be coaching Notre Dame Football five years from now. Despite a good amount of comments that suggested most of the fan base believes he will likely move on to the NFL before then — the survey shows that fans […]
During the Notre Dame football off-season, we like to talk a lot about the different rivalries the Irish have in football. We have developed a particular language for how we discuss these games — given that more than half a dozen teams have been considered as Notre Dame’s rivals over the years. We use the […]
Every season has a moment when everything hangs in the balance—when confidence wavers, pressure mounts, and belief is tested. In 1943, that moment arrived when Notre Dame lined up against an Iowa Pre-Flight team that hadn’t forgotten the past and had no intention of backing down. What unfolded wasn’t simply a matchup of unbeaten teams […]
