Irish Hoops In Final Two for #7 Player in USA!


Malina Howard, a 6'-3" "lefty" center at Twinsburg High School in Twinsburg, OH -- and the #7 ranked player by ESPN in the country in the Class of 2012 -- is down to the University of Maryland or the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame.

Should this five-star post player join Notre Dame's 2012 recruiting class -- Muffet will probably be bringing in her highest ranked recruiting class of all-time!  Here's a link to Malina's recruiting profile:

Photos From Media Day 2011 @ Notre Dame


South Bend Tribune photographers posted a section on the web today that features a number of photographs they took Tuesday of Notre Dame football players and coaches during Media Day.  I must admit, I'm not a big fan of seeing the new "fangled" football jerseys on the players without pads in them...

The Best Linebacker Group in 20 Years @ ND!


When the Irish line up on defense for the first time on September 3rd against the University of South Florida -- we'll run out a set of linebackers in our 3 - 4 system that are the best we've seen in a gold helmet since the Holtz years.  In fact, for the first time in so, so long -- we'll run out an entire defense that will be thought of as one of the best units in all of college football.  It's going to be fun to dominate again!!!  The folks at UND.COM rolled out a feature today on our linebacker corps -- here's the link:
