IB Nation Sports Talk: Lorenzo Styles, Mike Mickens Talk Move To Cornerback

Irish Breakdown discusses one of the biggest topics of spring football practice

The Lorenzo Styles cornerback experiment is in full swing. The Notre Dame wide receiver wore a defensive jersey and practiced as extensively with the cornerbacks on Tuesday as he has all spring. Styles and cornerbacks coach Mike Mickens spoke with the media after Tuesday's practice and on today's show we hear and discuss comments from both on Styles playing defense.  

We have more to discuss in Rapid Fire. See the full list of topics below.

We start Rapid Fire with a comment from defensive coordinator Al Golden about his plans for young linebackers Prince Kollie, Jaylen Sneed and Nolan Ziegler. We discuss how that comment impacts our optimism for the position this season. Other topics include:

* Comments from offensive coordinator Gerad Parker and how it impacts our optimism for young wide receivers playing this season. 

* There’s video circulating on-line of freshman early enrollee Arch Manning struggling in the Texas spring game. What does it say to us?

* We had breaking news during the show that Notre Dame men's basketball has landed transfer Julian Roper II from Northwestern. 

* Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that Mike Brey will join the Atlanta Hawks coaching staff next season.

* Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that Notre Dame baseball will play Northwestern at Wrigley Field next month.

* Major League baseball players are getting paid $10,000 per game for getting mic’d up and doing in game interviews on national broadcasts for ESPN, Fox and TBS. Do we Buy or Sell interviewing players during games?
