Notre Dame Football: Irish get the green light to start to practice again

After a sharp increase in positive COVID-19 cases for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish after the win over USF, the program was temporarily shutdown and the following weekend’s game against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons was postponed until December 12.

On Monday, Notre Dame released the latest set of test results — and they aren’t much better. In fact, Notre Dame now has 18 positive cases that have forced 25 players into isolation with 14 of them in quarantine.

Despite these numbers, Notre Dame is allowed to resume conditioning activities that will eventually lead into practice time for a game against the Florida State Seminoles on October 10.
