Rapid Fire: Australian Punter James Rendell To Notre Dame, Steve Angeli, Kenny Minchey, Caitlin Clark

Irish Breakdown

Rapid Fire topics include:

* Irish special teams coordinator Marty Biagi went down under and signed 23-year-old Australian Rules football player James Rendell to be the Irish punter this season. We share our thoughts on the Irish going this route as opposed to the transfer portal.

* The transfer portal came and went this week, and all four Notre Dame quarterbacks are still on the roster. On a scale of 1 to 10...How surprised are we that they’re all still here?

* An Indianapolis Star writer is catching a lot of grief for writing a column this week saying Caitlin Clark could do for the WNBA what Larry Bird did for the NBA. Do you Buy or Sell the idea that Clark could be her league’s Bird?

* Fill-in the blank…It’s BLANK that the University of Houston plans to wear powder blue uniforms that are very similar to the ones worn by the defunct Houston Oilers. They wore them in their season opener last year, and the NFL threatened to sue them because the league said they were “blatantly copying” the Oilers’ uniforms.

* What's the best landing spot for the Inside The NBA studio crew of Charles Barkley, Shaquille O'Neal and Kenny Smith if TNT loses the NBA broadcasting rights?

* Mike Trout is out for the rest of the season with a knee injury but it’s barely a blip on the sports radar. Do you think it’s because Trout is boring, he plays for the Angels or just because it’s baseball and nobody cares?
