## Resource

Notre Dame’s Coach Marcus Freeman turns playoff snub into recruitment gold, landing four five-star recruits for 2026 — a record-setting haul — while also dominating the transfer portal with top-tier talent. His reputation for integrity earned him a Bobby Dodd Trophy watch list nod, proving he’s building more than just wins. The 2026 season kicks off at Lambeau Field against Wisconsin, and with QB CJ Carr drawing Brady comparisons, the future looks bright for South Bend.
