Notre Dame Players Make List of All-Time Greats

Joe Montana was named the all-time greatest… college football player to wear a #3 jersey, according to Sports Illustrated.com. In a recent list of the greatest college football players by jersey number, the Irish were very well represented. If you check out the article, you’ll see that Notre Dame football players are all over this thing. While Cool Joe is the best NCAA football player to wear #3, Ralph Gugliemi, another ND QB was “worthy of consideration” for the #3 honor, as well. There are plenty of Fighting Irish players that made consideration lists for numbers 1-33, but only Montana was selected as the greatest of all time for his number.

Are there any players on the current roster that could make the list after next season? Likely not, but you should make sure to check this thing out when the numbers 33-99 come in, because the Irish are sure to be involved with plenty of numbers. Just make sure that checking out this old Notre Dame nostalgia doesn’t keep you from focusing on the task at hand for the up-to-date Irish fan. The basketball team is set to play West Virginia tonight at home. Go see it.

Notre Dame Begins Big East Play Tomorrow!

The Notre Dame Blog has not been around much this holiday season, but rest assured, we are going to come at you in 2008 even more dedicated to giving you the best, most ticket-oriented Notre Dame football, basketball and other athletic news and commentary that you deserve. Hope you had a happy New Year. Now, on to the Domers!

Over the winter break, the men’s basketball team was busy getting wins stored up for the tough road ahead. The non-conference schedule is over. Now comes the treacherous Big East. The Irish will play West Virginia at home tomorrow, marking their first game against a conference opponent this year. The Irish are on a 28-game home winning streak, and an eight-game win streak this year. The West Virginia Mountaineers have an identical overall record as the Irish, 10-2. Certainly this will be one of the toughest games that Notre Dame has played all season, so you should make sure you’re at the Joyce Center to cheer on the Irish for this one.
