There are moments in life when words just aren’t enough. Losing Coach Holtz is one of those moments.
Coach was so much more than a football coach to me. He was family. I still remember the day he came to my house to recruit me. He didn’t just sit down and talk to me about football or what I could do on the field. He talked to me as a young man. And he spoke to my mom the way a man should speak to a mother who was trusting someone with her son. He looked her in the eye and promised that I would be taken care of at Notre Dame. That moment meant everything to us, and it’s something I’ve carried with me my entire life.
Coach Holtz believed in people. He believed in building men, not just players. He welcomed my entire family into the Notre Dame family and always made sure we felt that love and support. That’s who he was. He cared deeply about the people around him, and he made every one of us feel like we mattered.
The lessons he taught me went far beyond football. His faith, his discipline, his belief in doing things the right way shaped who I became as a man, a father, and a leader.
My heart is broken today, but I’m also filled with gratitude for the time I had with him and for the impact he had on my life. Coach will always be with us—in the lessons he taught, in the lives he changed, and in the love he gave so freely.
Thank you for everything, Coach. I love you.
You will forever be in our hearts.

This is embarrassing!!! I’m pretty sure ND would’ve beat Oklahoma and then played Indiana wayyy tougher than this! Even Bama alumni knew Bama didn’t belong in the #CollegeFootballPlayoffs
Insane Jadarian Price stats...
-He averaged 31.8 yards per touchdown on 27 scores at Notre Dame. That's 859 yards of TDs.
-He had as many 65+ yard TDs (5) as 1 or 2-yard TDs.
-He scored as many times on kick returns (3) as he did from the 1-yard line.

In an exclusive with @YahooSports, Notre Dame AD Pete Bevacqua says the Irish are shocked about snub and calls the weekly rankings process an “absolute joke” and one that gave ND false hope.
“We feel like the playoff was stolen from our student-athletes.”

Had every reason to sit out tonight and use the mini to heal up. Instead, he plays in a must-win game
