Irish A-to-Z: C.J. Prosise

Spring hero? Tough to find a bigger one than C.J. Prosise. With numbers low in the backfield this spring, Notre Dame’s emerging slot receiver transitioned to running back—and immediately became an X factor in 2015.

Pushing close to nearly 230 pounds this summer (according to his head coach), Prosise might be the closest thing this team has to a power back. Add in the kind of blazing speed that allowed Prosise to get behind secondaries and run away from LSU in the Music City Bowl, and the latest position switch in Prosise’s career might be a game-changer.
