Notre Dame football: Highlights and notes from first day of camp
Notre Dame football is just around the corner. I know we say that a lot but this time we really mean it. Fall camp opened on Wednesday as the countdown is officially on for Notre Dame’s season opener against Navy in Dublin.
With camp officially opening up we thought it’d be a good idea to share with you just some of the buzz that took over social media during it. Below you’ll find some of the best tweets in regards to Notre Dame’s first day of fall football camp for 2023.
As you prep for the season don’t forget to check out some of the preview pieces we’ve put together too:

After missing all of last year due to a foot injury, running back JD Price is back and will certainly be a player to keep an eye on all fall long.

Most Impressive Group?
If you wanted an hot-ish take from Day One, it's that Notre Dame's group of cornerbacks (if they stay healthy) might be the best the program has since … ummm… I really don't know.
2018?
2002?May need to check some older rosters.

Bond Only Strengthening
Marcus Freeman says this is the closest group of players he's been around since he got to Notre Dame.
"When you have that emotional bond, that is when great things are achieved."
