Mailbag! Notre Dame Lands Another DT in the Portal, DL Projections, Backup QB/RB, Biggest Concerns, and More!
Description
Notre Dame football officially filled its biggest transfer portal need with the addition of Oregon defensive tackle Tionne Gray. Tyler Wojciak breaks down why that move — paired with the earlier commitment of Francis Brewu — stabilizes the defensive line for both the present and the future. In this Friday Mailbag episode, Tyler answers listener questions about Notre Dame’s 2026 defensive line projection, Christian Gray and Luke Talich at nickel, the backup quarterback situation, the race to finish second in rushing behind AneYas Williams, the most underrated portal addition, and whether any roster concerns still remain.
