Notre Dame 2024

Looks like another noon 'til midnight day of football for this old fan!

Georgia Tech 28, Miami 23 final!  Good news for Notre Dame and IU!

[PHJIrish]

The Irish have finally taken control, leading 28-3 with about 9 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.  Riley Leonard is still having problems throwing downfield.  Florida State is bad!

The Irish moved up to #8 in the coaches poll, and #8 in the AP.

There’s only one ranking that counts now.

A very good man and a great friend to Our Lady’s University. R.I.P. Coach.

Like!

RIP, Coach!

Today is senior day and it's time to send 'em off with a big win!😊

[PHJIrish]

Great start and then not much from the Irish offense.  7-0 Irish after one.

And they said a kid from a 1A school couldn’t make it in the big time. No one has played more games at Notre Dame.

Like!

Xavier Watts should get some solid consideration for the Heisman!

That was likely the craziest 1st half of a game I have ever seen. 

I am guessing when Freeman showed the trick punt play in pregame, he did not have the players' numbers on it. Or that any official said ok Coach, but know that these 5 have to have linemen numbers. lol

Happy 55th birthday to the most exciting college football player I ever saw. This highlight is my favorite. I remember Bo Schembechler was asked before the game if they were going to do anything special to prevent Rocket from breaking one. He said “tackle him.” … So, he broke two. The incomparable Raghib “Rocket” Ismail.

And to hear Tony Roberts on the call makes it so much better.

Saw the Rocket and the great 1988 ND national championship team beat Navy at the old Memorial Stadium in Baltimore.

He has said he wants to give the NFL a shot, and more power to him. But I have a feeling this young man is going to accomplish much, much bigger things in life than playing a few more years of football. Mark my words, he is really going places.

[PHJIrish]

I like the last two posts!

Probably Pioneer head coach in 4-5 years if he wants it.

Ummm … no disrespect intended. But I think he’s aiming a bit higher.

But he could do that and run the Kiser Cass county family farm.   A good life, right?

He can pretty much do whatever he wants.

Bottom line is, if the Irish can't win against Army and USC, they have no business being in the playoffs.  Not that either will be easy, but those games are very winnable.
