Notre Dame’s 35-28 victory over Purdue on Sept. 9 was Lou Holtz’s 200th as a college head coach. He’s the sixth active coach to get 200. Seventeen more victories and he will tie Knute Rockne as Notre Dame’s winningest coach at 105.

Freshman Notre Dame linebacker Kory Minor of La Puente Bishop Amat has been a major player on a defense that has taken a lot of criticism this season.
“Minor has been a tremendous player,” said Al Lesar, who covers the Irish for the South Bend Tribune. “He’s the brightest young star on that whole defense,”
Minor, who was also recruited by USC, was a Bishop Amat teammate of USC’s Daylon McCutcheon.
