ND Alums Starting on Three Top Ranked Teams


How is this for a fun fact!

In the AP Preseason Poll you will find Notre Dame alums (Class of 2015) starting on three football teams ranked in the TOP 11 -- what other school can make that claim?
  • #7 ranked Oregon:  Matt Hegarty '15 (Center)
  • #10 ranked Florida State:  Everett Golson '15 (QB)
  • #11 ranked Notre Dame:  Joe Schmidt '15 (Linebacker), Nick Martin '15 (Center) and Amir Carlisle '15 (Wide Receiver)

Notre Dame Alum Named Oregon Ducks Starter


Former Notre Dame student-athlete Matt Hegarty '15 -- was named the starting center on the Oregon football team.

Hegarty -- a starter last year for the Fighting Irish -- was not expected to start this year for Notre Dame, so he left for Eugene seeking a starting role with the Ducks.

He joins Everett Golson as one of two Notre Dame alums -- beyond the alums playing for the Fighting Irish -- who've earned a starting role on a top-ten ranked team in the pre-season polls -- after their graduation this past May.

A great indication of the football talent in South Bend!

Lions Trade Domer Kyle Brindza to Tampa Bay


The Detroit Lions just traded the former Fighting Irish kicker to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Brindza, an undrafted rookie, made all three of his field goal attempts (51 yards, 49 yards and 41 yards), both extra-point attempts, his four punts averaged 49.3 yards and Kyle recorded touch-backs on seven of his eight kickoffs.

I would call that KICKING PERFECTION!
