Notre Dame Men’s Basketball: What We’ve Learned Through Kentucky

In the midst of all the Brian Kelly-Marcus Freeman coaching drama on the football side, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish men’s basketball team has had a roller coaster ride to begin its 2021 season.

With only three games to go before the start of ACC play, let’s take a look at some major trends to watch for this Irish team.
