Headed to the Notre Dame vs. Texas A&M game on Sept. 13? Make a stop at The History Museum of South Bend for their Special Exhibit -- ROCKNE: Life and Legacy.
And pick up my books Loyal Sons and Coach For A Nation, on sale at the Museum.
They're a great celebration of Notre Dame football history.

Kudos to Western Michigan on winning its first NCAA Men's Hockey Championship in the 52-year history of the program. The team represented all former Broncos, including brothers
John Saunders (1974-76) of ESPN and ABC fame, and Bernie Saunders (1975-79) just the fifth Black player to reach the NHL.

And that's an Irish winner!!!

I had a great vantage point for Cole Knuble's goal which put Notre Dame ahead 3-1 en route to a 4-1 victory over Minnesota in the deciding game of the Big 10 first round.

A great victory for Coach Jackson and the boys. On to MSU for the Big 10 semi-final next weekend.

Pat Reusse has a nice tribute column to the iconic Edina hockey coach Willard Ikola, who died this week at 92.

Great piece, Eric. Perfectly captures the current #NotreDameFootball culture, in great CFP form.
