Notre Dame tweets of the day
Quote of the day
“If I could take a moment to thank Coach Freeman, all the student-athletes up there that I had the honor of coaching and obviously Pete Bevacqua and Jack Swarbrick for the opportunity to be there and be a part of that great run. It’s very seldom that you have the chance to do firsts at Notre Dame, but to host the first playoff game, to win the Orange Bowl, win the Sugar Bowl, win 13 in a row, that was great.”
