Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Notre Dame Opponent Preview: Michigan State with Matt Sheehan
Q: Can you explain the three biggest reasons why Jonathan Smith did not work out at Michigan State?
The main issues included a mismatch in developmental trajectory from Oregon State, a lack of an effective run game due to offensive line problems, and a temperament gap where the coach's calm demeanor may have undercut on-field fire and urgency needed to win in the Big Ten; the program subsequently moved to a leadership change.
Notre Dame Opponent Preview: BYU With Jake Hatch
Q: Okay, finish this sentence for me. This is the biggest BYU home game since blank.
It's probably since the mid to late 2000s at the very most recent, with a BYU win over UCLA or similar high-stakes games in Provo, and this one clearly dwarfs those in terms of stakes and national playoff implications.
Notre Dame Opponent Preview: Miami With Alex Donno
Q: How would you describe the current Miami roster compared to last year?
Miami is deeper and more perimeter-focused, with a stronger offense around Mensah and a veteran defense; they replaced top players with a mix of transfers and returning depth, and the offensive line is reshaping but has high ceiling given the talent in the room.
Mailbag! Trey Tagliaferri Decommitment Explained, Captain Predictions, WR Debate, Shamrock Series Uniforms, and More!
Q: Has there been any update on Kedren Young and his potential impact in 2026?
Young has been cleared for football activity and is participating in workouts, but his role remains up in the air as depth players like Aneas Williams and Nolan James Jr. contend for carries.
Top 5 Favorite Notre Dame Football Wins - Featuring Tim Murray (Pt. 1)
Q: What is your fifth favorite win from Notre Dame in your life?
The hosts kick off with Penn State 2006 as a fifth‑place pick, detailing the dramatic comeback, the atmosphere, and the lasting impact on their belief that Notre Dame could compete at the highest level, followed by honorable mentions and the rationale for where other games rank.
