Notre Dame football: Where former Irish to enter transfer portal ended up

Since the start of the 2022 football season Notre Dame has now seen 10 players enter the transfer portal.  It started with a rather surprising entry when defensive lineman Jacob Lacey, who had been a star of the afternoon in a win over Cal just weeks earlier, entered the portal in early October.

Since then nine more Notre Dame players have dipped their toes in the transfer portal waters.  Some of those 10 have announced their new college football homes while we’re still waiting on decisions from others.  A pair of quarterbacks, a former high school Butkus Award winner, and 2022’s second-leading rusher are among them.
