Running Back Recruit Jadarian Price Commits to Notre Dame

It appears Notre Dame might have its heir apparent to Kyren Williams, or at least an option for when the time comes.

It appears Notre Dame might have its heir apparent to Kyren Williams, or at least an option for when the time comes. His name is Jadarian Price, and he hails from Denison, Texas. He made the announcement Sunday, a special day for his mother:

Notre Dame clearly has been on Price’s mind for a while. In a previous interview with BlueandGold.com, he talked about the opportunities he could get with the program and the university:

“The education I can get from Notre Dame is unmatched. I am building great relationships with the coaching staff too. My relationship with running backs coach Lance Taylor has continued to grow.”

Per Rivals, Price was planning to visit the university during the past week, but bad weather prevented him from traveling. Fortunately for the Irish, that didn’t matter. Perhaps what best sold him on Notre Dame was its strong academic reputation, which is a major plus for someone with a 4.1 GPA. Sometimes, the glove simply fits effortlessly.

No Single-Game Tickets Available for Notre Dame in 2020

If you were hoping to buy single-game tickets for 2020 Notre Dame games through the university, you’re out of luck.

If you were hoping to buy single-game tickets for 2020 Notre Dame games through the university, you’re out of luck. According to an email viewed by BlueandGold.com, Notre Dame’s Rivals site, the usual lottery system that distributes tickets and parking passes for single games will not be available this coming season, assuming there is one. In what should be a surprise to no one, this is an effort to keep attendance down at Notre Dame Stadium in the current environment.

The email includes the following:

“Over the past few months, we have worked diligently on a seating plan that would incorporate proper physical distancing measures to ensure Notre Dame Stadium is as safe as possible this fall. We are in the final stages of that planning process, which will greatly reduce our capacity.”

In addition, Notre Dame’s ticket allotment for road games will be reduced and might not be able to be bought. Meanwhile, lottery eligibility for next season remains under evaluation. There should be an update about that next month.

We all want to gather in South Bend on Saturdays this fall, but this is for the best. Even thinking about going to a game this season is a terrible idea, and it’s why the NCAA might just decide not to take the chance and cancel the season. However, if it doesn’t go down that route, Notre Dame rightfully has taken opportunities away from people who otherwise wouldn’t have thought twice about taking a chance.
