Keep the video interviews coming! I love them, especially the coaches.
I’m so excited about this season coming up and the next few years of Notre Dame football
It’s great to hear what the players themselves have to say! They would communicate even better if they had some training in handling these interviews. They should not be thrust into the ordeal of an interview without prior orientation.
All of these players are at least in their 2nd years and in Hughes and Smith’s cases, their 4th years. They’ve been coached in how to handle these situations.
I was impressed with the players handling of these interviews. They were well spoken and even polite (i.e. Riddick answering the same question twice).
