There are five thoughts that I feel the most confident about regarding the 2018-19 Notre Dame Basketball Season: Three pros and two cons. I have the Fighting Irish finishing ninth in the ACC and I also having them making the tournament, the last team in the ACC to do so. Here are the reasons why:
1: Mike Brey is a great coach.
Flat out, it needs zero explanation. Duke fans are hoping and praying that he is the one that succeeds Coach K in Durham. Sorry boys and girls. That’s not happening.
Coach Brey has been a head coach since 1995 and since that time he has compiled 17 twenty-win seasons, 14 NCAA tournament births (2 with Delaware, 12 with the Irish), three sweet 16’s, and two elite eights.
