I’m not breaking any new ground here when I say that the 2018-2019 Notre Dame Fighting Irish men’s basketball season was, in three words, a disgusting dumpster fire.
The Irish finished the season 14-19 overall, were last place in the ACC with a 3-15 conference record, and have NEVER shot this poorly in Mike Brey’s 18 prior seasons as head coach. The team’s 31.5% mark from long range was especially bad, considering there has been just one other season — 2011-2012 at 33.2% — in which a Brey team has ever shot below 35% from 3-point land.
