When you think about the history of Notre Dame basketball there is one name synonymous with the program and that name is Digger Phelps. Over 20 seasons Phelps won 393 games, which makes him the all-time winningest coach in the history of the program. He led the Irish to 7 Sweet 16s, 2 Elite 8s and to Notre Dame’s lone Final Four. He was the head of the program when Notre Dame was considered one of the premier basketball schools in the country. So his legendary status is well deserved, but current head coach Mike Brey is very very quietly entering the same echelon as Phelps.
