Bye week boredom, so this in an early start to a favorite off-season topic.  As Senior Day approaches vs Wake Forest next week, I read an article that got me thinking about who ND might return next season. 

Irish Sports Daily - Returning Players in 2024

Senior Day next game vs. Wake Forest.  Will be interesting who walks.  The Covid year is still in play for this Senior class, and the 85 scholarships is a hard limit.  Transfer portal drop/add is a factor.


7 players out of eligibility:  Hartman, Salerno, Jean-Baptiste, DJ Brown, Harper, Vinson, Schrader.  Farewell to them.


Seniors/Grads with a Covid year of eligibility remaining:  Cross, Hart, Kiser, Bertrand, Lifau, Nana, Correll, Kristofic, Ford, Carter.  Who's leaving??


Alt leaving for the NFL. 23 commits in the '24 class, plus 76 potential returners puts us at 99 scholarships, approximately (also, Kahuna Kia returning from 2-year mission)




I know there's always some natural attrition, but it seems like this gets crazier every year.  My best guess is we're heading for roster cuts before and after spring ball.  If a bunch of vets stick around it gets really ugly.  How do we get there this time?

I been going to B&G game for years. I know it isn’t much to watch but after going through the winter with no college football watching the game takes me to a happy place.😊
