A native of Southern California, Greg fell in love with Notre Dame as a kid watching The Rocket rip teams apart. He was a self-described mediocre junior college safety, phenomenal co-ed flag football player. Greg started writing for UHND in 2015 for fun and has since had 200+ articles published on Notre Dame football & recruiting. Greg also runs the Untitled Notre Dame/USC football podcast via tiltingground.com which covers both the Fighting Irish & Trojan programs - you can subscribe to on iTunes. Greg is married with three kids and he last slept in during the summer of 2014. He thanks everyone for stopping by for reading. We’re all just trying to have fun and will Notre Dame to another national championship. Go Irish!
