Notre Dame Practice Notes - August 17

News and notes from Notre Dame's August 17th practice

The media got to view the first 30 minutes of today's Notre Dame practice and there were some news, notes and observations from the session. We mostly got to see the team stretch and then execute the PAT/Field Goal aspect of special teams. 

There wasn't much individual or group work, but here are some notes and observations from the little we saw. 

The offense went through its normal team take off period and here are how things lined up.

FIRST OFFENSE

QB #17 Jack Coan
RB #23 Kyren Williams / #25 Chris Tyree
WR #0 Braden Lenzy
WR #3 Avery Davis
WR #4 Kevin Austin Jr.
TE #87 Michael Mayer / #85 George Takacs
LT #54 Blake Fisher
LG #52 Zeke Correll
C #55 Jarrett Patterson
RG #62 Cain Madden
RT #75 Joshua Lugg

SECOND OFFENSE

QB #10 Drew Pyne
RB #20 C'Bo Flemister / #22 Logan Diggs
WR #21 Lorenzo Styles
WR #16 Deion Colzie
TE #84 Kevin Bauman 
TE #88 Mitchell Evans
LT #68 Michael Carmody
LG #50 Rocco Spindler
C #73 Andrew Kristofic
RG #56 John Dirksen
RT #79 Tosh Baker

THIRD OFFENSE

QB #12 Tyler Buchner
RB #24 Audric Estime
WR #26 Leo Albano
WR #86 Brian Ratigan
TE #80 Cane Berrong
TE #89 Charlie Selna
LT #72 Caleb Johnson
LG #53 Quinn Murphy
C #78 Pat Coogan
RG #77 Quinn Carroll
RT #76 Joe Alt

The wide receivers appear to be a bit banged up. Lawrence Keys III, Xavier Watts and Jayden Thomas are all out of practice today.

DEFENSE

On defense the only position that lined up in any kind of group setting was the defensive line when it went through its sled drills.

Veteran Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa was back at practice after returning home last week to be with his family after the tragic passing of his father. He was back with the first group at big end. He was joined by Isaiah Foskey at Vyper, with Jayson Ademilola and Kurt Hinish lining up inside.

The second group was NaNa Osafo-Mensah at big end and Justin Ademilola at Vyper, with Howard Cross and Rylie Mills inside.

The third group was Jordan Botelho at Vyper and Alexander Ehrensberger at big end, with Jacob Lacey and Aidan Keanaaina inside.

Justin Ademilola being back out at practice already is a very good sign, as it means his hamstring injury was not as severe as previously thought. He looked healthy and quick working through practice, especially laterally, which is important when dealing with a hamstring.

We'll have a full practice session open for Thursday, so we'll obviously have a lot more then.
