It’s been the way of the sports media world since live events shut down just over a month ago – old games and story time of sports from yesteryear. Former Notre Dame quarterback and now rising star in the media, Brady Quinn joined Barton Simmons on “Social Distance” a new show 247Sports is putting on.
Quinn discusses some of the best environments he played in and shares a story of just how loud Neyland Stadium in Tennessee was when the Irish pulled the upset of the Vols in 2004. He also takes you down memory lane a bit with stories of the “Bush Push” game and the satisfaction of earning a BCS berth in 2005 after the struggles Notre Dame had early in his career.
Take a watch below and remember some of the happy and some of the more painful memories in semi-recent Notre Dame history through the eyes of one of all the all-time Fighting Irish greats.

The 38’s in regards to the Michigan game in ’04 was fun but Derrelle Revis baiting Quinn back in 2005 was probably my favorite story shared. I always enjoy hearing stories of stars before they were seen nationally as stars and also enjoyed his openness about being out-matched in terms of physical ability against Ohio State and LSU during his college years.
