The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are in need of some help in the offensive backfield this season, and many people were wondering if they were going to tap into the graduate transfer market. Well... wonder no more, because they did just that.
Keenan Sweeney, a FULLBACK for the Auburn Tigers, has decided to transfer to Notre Dame to play his final year of eligibility for the Irish. Sweeney was a walk-on at Auburn, but he earned a scholarship in 2017 along with five other teammates.
Sweeney, who looks every bit the part of an Irish fullback with a scruffy face and red hair, will most likely be a preferred walk-on for Notre Dame this season.
