Notre Dame Football: WR coach Del Alexander will not return to the Irish in 2022

According to multiple reports, Del Alexander, Notre Dame Fighting Irish wide receivers coach will not be retained for the 2022 season.

Alexander was part of the staff shakeup at Notre Dame following the disastrous 2016 season. While the on-field play of the wide receiver group has been fairly good throughout his five years at Notre Dame, Alexander did have some recruiting issues. Del pulled in some very good talent during his time — but it was never enough. The “3 players in a class” rule/mantra has decimated the Irish receiver group. Notre Dame has 4 healthy wide receivers for spring football, and just 7 scheduled to play come fall of 2022.
