Notre Dame Football Midweek Mailbag /

It's Mailbag day on IB Nation Sports Talk and Irish Breakdown answers questions from listeners/subscribers on today's show. Some of the topics include:

* The possibility of Notre Dame players switiching jersey numbers.

* Will Irish safety Luke Talich be awarded a scholarship?

* Notre Dame's prospects as a No. 5 seed and playing a Group of 5 team in the College Football Playoffs.

* Would we have picked Sam Hartman or Riley Leonard if both had been available before last season?

* Thoughts on Tommy Rees going to the NFL.

* Thoughts on the job Rees did with Jalen Milroe at Alabama this season.

* Should Notre Dame go after Michigan tackle Myles Hinton now that Jim Harbaugh is headed to the LA Chargers?

* Thoughts on the Raiders hiring Antonio Pierce and Tom Telesco.

* Brian Callahan is the new Tennessee Titans head coach and he and current Notre Dame defensive coordinator Al Golden coached together both in Detroit and Cincinnati. We discuss that connection and what it could means for Golden and the Irish.

* The TCU women’s basketball team recently had to cancel games and hold open tryouts on campus due to a rash of injuries that depleted their roster. If something similar happened to the Notre Dame men’s team, what two Irish football players would we choose to join the basketball team?

* Fill-in the blank: The school that will benefit the most from Nick Saban’s retirement is BLANK.

* Breaking news that Jim Harbaugh to the LA Chargers is official.

* There’s been a lot of smoke about Brian Kelly going to Michigan if and when Harbaugh took an NFL job. With Harbaugh now gone, would Kelly be our pick for Michigan?

* We’ve talked about players opting out of bowl games basically becoming a status symbol for the players. Which do you think is the bigger status symbol: players opting out of bowl games or players enrolling early?

* Fill-in the blank....It’s BLANK that after reportedly interviewing Kliff Kingsbury for its OC vacancy the Chicago Bears have hired former Seahawks OC Shane Waldron
