Former ND Football Player / Turned Author!

Matt Kunz '98, who played linebacker under Holtz and Davie for the Fighting Irish, has authored the book; Triumph! An Athlete's Guide to Winning On and Off the Field. 

These days, Matt lives in Milton, GA with his wife RaDonna -- where he is a financial advisor, a City Councilman and a football coach...

Many ND fans will remember Matt's Dad George Kunz '69 -- one of Notre Dame's all-time great offensive lineman who enjoyed a NFL All-Pro career with the Falcons and Colts after going 2nd overall in the 1969 NFL Draft.
