Notre Dame football is off to a slow and concerning start in the transfer portal, and questions are mounting about the program’s plan as key targets come off the board. Tyler Wojciak breaks down why Notre Dame has zero portal commitments through four days, where things went wrong at wide receiver and defensive tackle, and why the pressure on this roster build is only increasing with 2026 looming large. Tyler also runs through the players currently visiting South Bend, including high-upside defensive line targets and a potential veteran quarterback addition, before closing with thoughts on Micah Shrewsberry’s viral outburst following Notre Dame’s loss to Cal and what it says about the state of the program.
