Notre Dame: Fighting Irish Wire Daily Recap (Edition 5)

Much went on in the land of Notre Dame athletics even with no games being played. Find out all the latest in all things Fighting Irish.

Tuesday’s gone with the wind and we hope it was a good enough Tuesday for you.  We stayed busy at Fighting Irish Wire with some various different pieces of news that came out, some ranking videos to make sure and enjoy and a second day in a row of a dream scenario for Notre Dame fans to see their team play somewhere.

We start with the football team who the university’s video team put together a top ten for in regards to “Best Catches by a Notre Dame Tight End”.  It was a fun list an we discuss the impact over impressiveness of some of the catches and how we had trouble really arguing with much of it.  Continuing on the video front, Kyren Williams posted a workout video that recently got a lot of the Notre Dame fan base excited for his potential.  And finally, a new Notre Dame assistant coach helped get Ian Book and the other Irish quarterbacks a meeting with a Hall of Famer.

In the recruiting world, Rivals discussed where Notre Dame stands in their efforts to land a commitment from mega-recruit, running back Will Shipley.  We also got word of a mauler from Illinois who will be making an official visit in June.

In basketball, reports surfaced that Notre Dame will be one the eight teams to participate in the 2021 Maui Invitational if you’re looking for a reason to take a trip to Hawaii.  Our guy Geoffrey Clark found a unique way to determine Notre Dame’s best basketball team of the last 15 years and we came across the #NDTop10 video that is worth your time if you’re a sports fan at all as they count down the “Best Notre Women’s Basketball NCAA Tournament Moments”

And finally, a recent Notre Dame All-American and record holder is changing his NFL number.  Sorry if you bought a jersey last year, looks like you’ll just have to get another.
