Notre Dame RB Jadarian Price is using the offseason to improve, as this video shows
For any athlete, the off-season is the time to improve on your game, and for Notre Dame running back Jadarian Price, it looks like he's well on his way to doing just that.
The rising junior is coming off a season where he had 120 carries for 746 yards and 10 touchdowns, as many would say that constitutes a breakout year. There is no doubt in my mind that Price is just scratching the surface of his ability, and in a video shared by trainer Sean Cooper, it looks like he's on his way for a big 2025 campaign.
While he will still share carries with Jeremiyah Love, Price is an integral part of the offense, especially considering how much time his counterpart missed last year. Notre Dame's running back room is deep and talented, with many expecting the pair to be the main ball carriers. Aneyas Williams will also get plenty of run, but Love and Price are the workhorses.
Expect Price to pick up some of the yardage that Riley Leonard accounted for in 2024, and don't be surprised to see each to the top two Irish backs going over 1,000 yards.

Notre Dame offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock breaks down the quarterback competition
Notre Dame football head coach Marcus Freeman met with the media yesterday, and on Friday it was offensive coordinator Mike Denbrocks's turn at the podium. In no surprise, he was asked about the quarterback competition between CJ Carr and Kenny Minchey, and proceeded to give us some insight on how he'll ultimately select who will be the starter against Miami. Denbrock wants to see 'how do they operate within the framework of the offensive scheme. Do they understand it? Do they know where their problems are? What can we do to help them? Making good decisions with the ball. Being a consistent guy, day in and day out, that the teammates can count on.' Denbrock wasn't too happy with the results yesterday, as he called it 'a little bumpy at times,' but didn't seem to be too worried do to the fact that neither of them have had a lot of live snaps under their belts. He wants them to experience some failure, as they can learn from their mistakes. He was happy to see both of them bouncing back after their errors, which shows that each of them aren't afraid to try and make plays. The race between Carr and Minchey looks like it will continue to go on for at least a few weeks until one separates from the other and a starter is named.

Top 2027 Pennsylvania offensive tackle Terrance Smith lists Notre Dame in top group
Top 12!!! #AGTG @BigMenNTrenches @TomLoy247 @BrianDohn247 @247recruiting @247Sports Notre Dame has made Terrance Smith's top 12 schools as he continues to search for the best fit for him. The top Class of 2027 Pennsylvania offensive tackle from Lansdale Catholic (Lansdale, PA) announced his finalists on X (formerly Twitter), and the Fighting Irish remain in the mix. Marcus Freeman and his staff may have a tough time landing a pledge from the 6-foot-6, 260-pounder, though, as Penn State has made him a priority target in its 2027 class. Smith picked up an offer from the Nittany Lions in early April and traveled to State College for the annual Blue-White spring game later in the month. He then attended PSU's annual Lasch Bash recruiting barbecue at the end of June. Joining Notre Dame and Penn State in Smith's top 12 are Ohio State, Missouri, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, Kentucky, Rutgers, Oregon, NC State and Syracuse.
