Josh Adams to lead Notre Dame rushing attack in 2017

Adams was the leading rusher for the Fighting Irish in 2016 and looks to continue that in 2017.

Adams will be a junior in 2017. The 6’1”, 220 lbs. back from Central Bucks South High School in Warrington, Pennsylvania was a four-star recruit and all-state running back as a high school senior.

In his first two seasons with the Fighting Irish, he has shown that he came as advertised. He is a superb running back.

During his freshman season, Adams set a school record for most rushing yards by a freshman running back. He gained 835 yards which broke the record set by Darious Walker in 2004 (786 yards).
