Notre Dame is going to be everywhere all the time starting Sunday night. You're going to love it. You're going to hate it. And you're gonna have takes. Let's at least try to be educated about them, OK? https://t.co/rZSH4fnFQ7 11K views · 228 likes · 8 reposts · 9 replies 03 Sep 2026 Asked Mike Denbrock about CJ Carr pre-snap and where he ranks among the QBs he's coached. "I think Jayden (Daniels) was really good at it, especially in '23. And I think CJ has really kind of taken that mantle, to be honest with you. He's as good as I've ever been around." 29.6K views · 762 likes · 20 reposts · 4 replies 03 Sep 2026 Interesting to hear from Jordan Faison on being a captain. Called it a surprise. Strength coach Loren Landow planted the idea in summer. "He's like, 'I want you to be up there.' From that kind of point, I was like, OK, my role on this team is a little bit bigger." 19.1K views · 399 likes · 3 reposts · 0 replies 03 Sep 2026 Chris Ash was asked if he had any thoughts about Luke Fickell's commentary about how Wisconsin has to at least try to throw at Leonard Moore to keep the Irish defense honest. "Well, they have a game plan. They have to execute it. Good luck to ‘em." 44.7K views · 796 likes · 20 reposts · 12 replies 03 Sep 2026 Notable to me from offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock when asked about being better in short yardage in camp: "Our defense has done everything you can possibly imagine to try to take it away from us, and they haven't been able to do it yet." That feels significant. 112.4K views · 909 likes · 25 reposts · 33 replies 02 Sep 2026
