## Resource

Notre Dame football's schedule criticism, the Brendan Sorsby controversy, C.J. Carr, Marcus Freeman's recruiting operation, official visit weekends, sleeper candidates, transfer portal targets, and Brian Kelly's path to South Bend headline this Friday mailbag episode. Tyler Wojciak opens the show by breaking down why Notre Dame continues to receive criticism for its schedule despite playing one of the most challenging slates in college football, then discusses how the Irish would handle a Brendan Sorsby-type situation involving C.J. Carr, takes listeners inside a major recruiting weekend, evaluates sleeper candidates for 2026, examines the impact of new assistant coaches Brian Jean-Mary and Aaron Henry, identifies transfer portal fits on the schedule, and revisits one of the biggest what-if scenarios in Notre Dame history.
