Notre Dame Basketball Coach Mike Brey – from his mock turtlenecks to his updated bearded button-up look – is largely respected in the Notre Dame basketball community and the larger NCAA basketball community as a whole.
For Notre Dame, Mike Nrey has rebuilt a program that saw years of relative under-achievement after the retirement of Notre Dame legend Digger Phelps into a consistent competitor. To build off of last year’s breakthrough – an ACC tournament title and a run to the Elite Eight – the Irish have reached the Sweet 16 for the second season in a row.
