Notre Dame Fighting Irish head coach Marcus Freeman met with journalists Thursday after starting the season in style with a 42-3 victory over the Navy Midshipmen. The Irish coach gave injury updates and noted the historic significance of Notre Dame’s upcoming matchup against the Tennessee State Tigers.
On Jadarian Price’s recovery and 19-yard touchdown in the Navy game, Freeman said, “For me, I was extremely happy for him, because it’s been a long process from when he tore his Achilles last summer to actually getting back out there on the field. There was such high hopes last year after spring ball for him as we entered last year’s season.
