Notre Dame's Depth of Talent on Display!


How many teams ranked in the TOP-25 have lost SEVEN of their top 28 players to SEASON ENDING injuries?

None.  Only Notre Dame...

Here's the list:
  • Jarron Jones -- starting DT, lost for the season in August.  Torn ACL
  • Shaun Crawford -- starting Nickel CB, lost for the season in August.  Torn ACL
  • Tarean Folston -- starting RB, lost for the season in Week 1.  Torn ACL
  • Malik Zaire -- starting QB, lost for the season in Week 2.  Dislocated Ankle
  • Durham Smythe -- starting TE, lost for the season in Week 2.  Torn ACL and Shoulder injury
  • Drew Tranquill -- starting Safety (top Safety replacement), lost for the season in Week 3.  Torn ACL
  • Alex Bars -- starting OG (top OL replacement), lost for the season in Week 6.  Dislocated Ankle

That's a lot of BIG TIME TALENT...

Just goes to show you how well Coach Kelly & Company have recruited and developed the talent here at Notre Dame -- we keep on winning -- and no one is talking about all of these injuries.
