Tyler Wojciak answers the most pressing Notre Dame football questions in this fan-fueled mailbag episode. He breaks down what to expect from new defensive coordinator Chris Ash, explores whether Notre Dame will land more 2026 recruits beyond Nick Reddish and Elijah Golden, and discusses which wide receiver could hit 1,000 yards this season. He also shares insights on QB prep in July, academic support for recruits, and even debates whether “Living on a Prayer” should be a permanent tradition. Plus — which former Irish player would be the ultimate tailgate companion?
