Good morning! It was a busy day on campus Friday, as the Notre Dame coaching staff hosted about 80 high school prospects from around North America (yes, even Canada!) for its "Irish Invasion." The event produced two new commitments, and a lot of good feedback. In addition, check out Lisa's interview with former Irish QB Evan Sharpley. It's an in-depth look at what Evan's been up to after earning his Notre Dame degree. FROM OUR SITE Father on fathers: A reflection Where are they now? ...

Good morning! Tex was struck by a case of "baby brain," so our site didn't have a non-roundup post Thursday. He's back this morning with his regular Friday Roundup podcast.

Good morning! You may have heard some chatter about Notre Dame denying ESPN's request to access its police records - and the resulting court case that ensued. The compliance requirements of a private university versus a public institution are sometimes difficult to understand, but Bayou Irish has done a great job of boiling the case down to its essential points. I highly recommend you check out "Private" this morning. FROM OUR SITE Private PODCAST Irish247 (F): 1-on-1 with ...
