Film Session: Notre Dame vs. Miami, 1990

April 25, 2016 by Jimmy Grant

The Miami-Notre Dame series, while largely dominated by Notre Dame, was full of excitement in the late 1980s. Whether it was the unforgivable 58-7 humiliation that was Gerry Faust’s last game or the near riot prior to the 1988 thriller, the games were hard-hitting, emotion-fueled, big-play dramas. While games in both 1988 and 1989 largely decided the national championship, the 1990 game was actually ranked #3 by fans for the best games in Notre Dame Stadium in a 2005 poll. It also played a ...

Where Are They Now? Byron Spruell

January 9, 2014 by Lisa

A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives. ~Jackie Robinson Byron Spruell had aspirations of becoming an engineer since he was in the sixth grade, when his teacher told him that his math and science talents would serve him well in the engineering field. When he reached high school and not only excelled academically, but also athletically on the football field and basketball court, Byron received the opportunity to attend the University of Notre Dame on a football ...

Where Are They Now? Vagas Ferguson

January 21, 2013 by Lisa

Although Vasquero Diaz "Vagas" Ferguson grew up in Richmond, Ind., Notre Dame was nowhere on his radar. A resourceful Notre Dame recruiter discovered him, in this small town near the Ohio border and won him over with some Fighting Irish magic. Ferguson finished his senior year as the nation's fifth-leading rusher, fifth in Heisman Trophy voting and with All-America honors. He ranks third all-time for total yards (3,472) among Notre Dame running backs, averaging 5.2 yards per carry. He was a ...

Brian Kelly and Year Three

August 13, 2012 by Ryan Ritter

As HLS makes its transition into its third iteration, I feel that it is only appropriate that the first post in the HLS 3.0 era should be a look into the expectations that Brian Kelly carries with him into his third version of Irish football. The third year has transformed into that "line in the sand" in regards to a college coach's future at their current school. But just how accurate is that mark? And where should we place our expectations in 2012 considering that the Irish will be facing ...
