Notre Dame’s road to glory in the next NCAA season begins in roughly two months. And if the team hopes to at least match its 10-win outing last year, it must bank on a roster of mostly new and younger talents. Yes, it’s doubtful that the Fighting Irish can get back quickly into title contention after having lost many key players. But one never knows. Hereunder are some names to watch this year.
Miles Boykin
The senior has made a name for himself for that one-handed, 55-yard, touchdown pass in the recent Citrus Bowl. The 6’4” wide receiver should play an increased role in Notre Dame’s campaign this season, especially given his good chemistry with Brandon Wimbush.
Alohi Gilman
Former Navy standout Gilman sat out last season due to the NCAA rules on transfers, but he is expected to gain significant playing time as needed safety for the Fighting Irish. The junior has a solid record of 76 tackles in 2016, including 12 in a win over Notre Dame.
Khalid Kareem
Kareem has gone up Notre Dame’s depth chart with the transfer of Jay Hayes, especially as he has been displaying good work in both the field and the weight room. The defensive lineman should gain an increased and more active role this year, way more than the mere 20 plays he was involved in last season.
