We returned this week after a week off thanks to a hellacious week of work for Frank so there was a lot to talk about. Notre Dame has two new assistants since the last pod and still needs a DC while USC’s Lincoln Riley said some dumb things this week that will make it easy to dislike him. Here’s a rundown of everything we covered this week.
- Some concerns with the relatively young age of the Irish coaching staff
- Forget projecting 2022 starters, we looked ahead to 2023
- What’s up with the DC search?
- What early enrollees we’re most excited about
- How did Notre Dame’s interior DL play relative to expectations in 2021?
- What to expect from Tyler Buchner in 2021
- Our favorite songs from Encanto (thanks to a listener’s question)
- Lincoln Riley’s ridiculously hypocritical comments on the transfer portal
- Notre Dame and NIL
