On Monday, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman got in front of the media for the first time in a week to kick off this week’s game against the Pittsburgh Panthers. Besides dragging Irish Illustrated’s Tim O’Malley for his [Tim’s] poor red zone production and equipment malfunctions in a 2nd/3rd grade flag football game, Freeman also gave some updates to the status of the team’s health and the mindset this week.
Notre Dame also released the latest depth charts, and there are significant changes.
