Our Notre Dame Friday Mailbag was jam packed with a lot of great questions about the Fighting Irish, recruiting and many other topics. The questions were so numerous that we had to break out show into three segments!

Notre Dame Football Mailbag - Part I

Here are some of the topics we discussed in part one:

*** How freshman quarterback Kenny Minchey stacks up to other first year quarterbacks that played at Notre Dame.

*** A look at Big 12 expansion, with a focus on how Cincinnati and BYU will adjust to the new league.

*** How Notre Dame can use wide receiver Chris Tyree to attack the defense down the field and how the Irish coaches can use his speed.

*** Quick breakdown of 2024 safety target Brauntae Johnson, and how he stacks up to the 2023 safety signees and targets.

*** We shared our thoughts on the EA Sports College Football game, the potential of a player boycott and why we would still play the game even if the players opted out.

Notre Dame Football Mailbag - Part II

Here are some of the topics we discussed in part two:

*** The possibility of Mike Mickens being the next defensive coordinator at Notre Dame.

*** Changes we might make to Notre Dame's gold helmet design, and which teams have the ugliest uniforms in college football.

*** Ranking our favorite Notre Dame teams from 1988 to 1993.

*** Why we believe the Notre Dame defense will be better in 2023 than it was in the first year of Al Golden's tenure.

*** The potential roles for sophomore linebackers Jaylen Sneed and Nolan Ziegler.

Notre Dame Football Mailbag - Part III

Here are some of the topics we discussed in part three:

*** We talk more about the Big 12, and things the conference should consider in order to stack up against the other top conferences.

*** Should Notre Dame continue recruiting more running backs like Audric Estime.

*** Our favorite non-sports hobbies.

*** Over/under on how many points Notre Dame will score in 2023, and how many points it will give up.
