Six and Oh! Mettle Beats Metal

October 8, 2018 by Bayou Irish

There was a time when the skyline between Notre Dame and Chicago was lined with glowing furnaces and fantastically-sized factories.  Within those factories, men poured, formed, and cut steel.  Today, those factories are mostly closed.  Today, those men are mostly dead.  On Saturday night, before the heaving, bouncing bodies in the stands, young men from Notre Dame, very much alive and fired by echoes cheering her name, quieted piped-in heavy metal with a punishing dose of heavy mettle. In ...

There and Back Again: A Citrus Bowl Tale

January 2, 2018 by Ryan Ritter

In Camping World Stadium there lived many a nightmare for Notre Dame fans. Not a nasty, windy, wet monsoon game, filled with questionable play-calling decisions and an all-to-familiar lack of execution, nor a game in Hard Rock Stadium where the mere presence of the Irish brings a blowout; it was the Citrus Bowl, and that means things could be different. Still, a game with rainy conditions, in Florida, on New Year's Day, facing an opponent with a solid defense, especially in the secondary ...

In Kelly-Harbaugh Recruit Fight, It’s Tied

January 19, 2017 by andrewwinn

In the constant tug-of-war for the attention of high school student-athletes, Brian Kelly and Jim Harbaugh are currently deadlocked. Brian Kelly and his staff have convinced 21 student-athletes with Michigan offers to commit to Notre Dame, while Jim Harbaugh and his group have persuaded the same number to forgo Notre Dame offers and come to Ann Arbor, according to Her Loyal Sons research. Michigan and Notre Dame have historically battled for outstanding players in midwestern states, although ...

Blue Gold Game Preview: The Running Backs

April 12, 2016 by andrewwinn

2015 starters lost: C.J. Prosise - 156 attempts, 1032 yards, 54.1% of snaps Incoming freshmen: Tony Jones and Deon McIntosh Tarean Folston was supposed to be the foundation that supported a very inexperienced backfield. Seven plays into the 2015 season, it was on to Plan B. Folston, the team's leading rusher in 2014, tore the ACL in his right knee on his third carry from scrimmage. C.J. Prosise, newly converted to the backfield, entered the game having amassed just 10 career ...

Notre Dame vs. UMass 62-27: The Game I Hated and Have Always Wanted

September 27, 2015 by Ryan Ritter

View image | gettyimages.com For the first time in a long time, I found myself downright pissed at Notre Dame at halftime. The 35-20 lead that the Irish took into the locker room might as well have been flipped. The effort was uninspiring. The offense sputtered far too often, including a terrible interception due to, of all people, Will Fuller trying to catch the ball with his body and not his hands. The defense looked lost, giving up three consecutive UMass drives for touchdowns, ...

Tarean Folston Tears ACL, Out For Season

September 7, 2015 by WhiskyPoet

As the near perfection of Saturday's home opener against Texas continued to dance in the heads of Notre Dame fans everywhere, the other shoe seemed like it had to drop just around the corner. That shoe came in the form of Tarean Folston's injury news. The junior running back has officially been ruled out due to a torn right ACL for the rest of the season following his Sunday MRI. The injury occurred during Notre Dame's second offensive possession and the 2014 leading rusher never returned to ...

Cruel Summer: Greg Bryant Suspended for Four Games

June 30, 2015 by Ryan Ritter

Bad things happen in threes. On the day that Everett Golson announced he would transfer from Notre Dame, Bo Wallace announced that he would not be enrolling at Notre Dame. After the one-two punch on that fateful day in May, we've been waiting for the other shoe to drop and fill the offseason trinity of pain. Yesterday morning, that shoe came crashing down as Irish247 announced that a source confirmed Greg Bryant would be suspended for the first four games of 2015 for the ever-so-specific ...
