Just last week Notre Dame star defensive lineman Isaiah Foskey announced that he would be returning to school for another year, a huge win for the Fighting Irish defense. What Foskey likely had no idea of at that time was that he would be playing for a new defensive line coach in 2022.
That surprising news came down Thursday afternoon as reports surfaced that defensive line coach Mike Elston is leaving Notre Dame for a similar position on Michigan’s coaching staff.

Foskey took to Twitter on Thursday afternoon to share a tweet seemingly in regards to Elston’s surprising departure:
Everything happens for a reason. The Best is yet to come✊🏾

It’s a sign of staying positive for Foskey, who almost certainly was talked into staying another year by Elston.
Foskey recorded 10 sacks in 2021 and figures to be in store for another huge season in 2022.
