I asked myself a really tough question on Sunday. What am I looking forward to more, the start of the Notre Dame football season or the end of the Notre Dame football offseason? A philosophy major out there will probably tell me that the two can't be separated, but of course they can.
We don't need to debate that question, but I'm positive we can all agree that we are ready for the Notre Dame offseason to be over.
Even though all offseasons can kind of suck for one reason or another, this offseason in particular has been somewhat torturous. It has been almost 9 months since the Irish last played a football game, and EVERYTHING has run its course. Usually I bask in the fun of the offseason, but maybe the podcast hiatus took more joy out of that time of year than usual.
Notre Dame being left out of the playoff was rough enough, but watching Indiana and Miami play for the national championship was an incredibly jagged pill to swallow.
The backlash for skipping the bowl game.
The "Freeman to the NFL" rumors.
The USC scheduling saga.
