"Parents Day @ Notre Dame Stadium" -- NYT


The New York Times published a story today about Jon Bon Jovi and a number of the "famous parents' of football players at Notre Dame...

They talk about the need for "red carpet" -- at Notre Dame it's called the GOLD CARPET!

They also profiled Bon Jovi's son Jesse -- a freshman "walk-on" football player for the Fighting Irish.  Enjoy!

Mike Brey Goes "Flint Tropics" @ Pep Rally!


Notre Dame men's basketball coach Mike Brey showed up at tonight's pep rally -- a day late for Halloween -- dressed as Will Farrel's character Jackie Moon...  Got to love it!

Photo of Father Ted With the Blue Angels!


Father Ted Hesburgh, C.S.C., was the appropriate individual at Notre Dame to have his photo taken this afternoon with the U.S. Navy's Blue Angels.  Fr. Ted was named a honorary Navy Chaplain this past April -- see link below.  The tall pilot standing to the right of Fr. Ted is Notre Dame alum John Hiltz '02.

The photo was taken by Notre Dame's award winning photographer Matt Cashore -- an hour after the Blue Angles "test" flight over campus today.

Video: Blue Angels Fly Over @ Notre Dame!


The U.S. Navy's Blue Angels made a practice run this lunch hour over the campus of the University of Notre Dame. You're going to love the video shot by the University Communications video team!  Great work!

The photo above was shot by my wife Susan -- from her iPhone -- as they were flying directly over our house.  She thought it was appropriate that "the Blue Angels flew over Notre Dame on All Saints Day!"
