IB Nation Sports Talk: Notre Dame Football We In Or We Out - Part 1

Irish Breakdown

Irish Breakdown answers subscriber submitted questions about Notre Dame football and more on today's show. Some of today's questions include:

* Being ranked 7th in the AP preseason poll is a really good spot for Notre Dame to start the season because it leaves them a little wiggle room for a loss, but also sets them up for a good spot to get into the playoffs. In or out?

* We in/We out: Al Golden will leave next year and CB coach Mike Mickens will get promoted to DC?

* We in/We Out The 2025 recruiting class will have a bigger impact then the 2024… National champion opportunities/draft picks?

* We In/We Out: James Rendell balls out and TAMU’s average starting field position will be behind the 15 yard line.

* We in/ We out: The Texas heat will be a significant factor in the first game of the season?

* We in / We out: Notre Dame will finish the season post season included ranked higher than their AP poll #7 ranking?

* We In / We Out: Jack Kiser, Drayk Bowen and Jaylen Sneed will combine for 175 tackles this season.

* We In / We Out: Howard Cross and Rylie Mills will combine for 6+ sacks this season.

* In the opener, the storyline of Riley Leonard playing for Mike Elko at Duke will be brought up 10+ times – we in or we out?

* We In/ We Out: Notre Dame currently has 2+ LBs that will go in the second round or sooner when they enter the draft.

* We in / we out: in an expanded playoff era where players are monetizing NIL, should ND put names on jerseys again? I’m all for certain traditions, but this one is an incredibly inconsistent tradition – one that doesn’t make sense to me in the current environment.

* We In / We Out: ND RB, TEs, and WRs will combine for more than 250 receptions this year.

* We In / We Out: At the end of the season, more than 12 ND players will have accounted for at least one rush attempt.
