The 2024 independents preview + Notre Dame with Jessica Smetana

The state of the Fighting Irish, UConn, and UMass.

The ranks of the FBS independent schools are down to three (and getting smaller in 2025, when UMass joins the MAC. Richard, Godfrey, and Alex talk about UConn and UMass to start, and then Jessica Smetana (18:44) joins for a state of the union talk about Notre Dame: What’s the belief level right now in Marcus Freeman? Has Notre Dame secured its independence forever? How is the fanbase’s relationship with Peacock? Will the Irish be able to block anyone on the edges this year? And will this program ever again have a game-breaking wideout? We discuss all of it. Production: Anthony Vito.
