Nic Weishar is not officially a captain of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team, and it doesn’t matter. Nic has become one of the senior spokespersons for the team, and the leader of the tight ends. If you’ve spent any time around Nic, or heard him speak, you quickly realize that he’s a born leader, and an incredible guy to have in the locker room.
Years ago I created a title called “The Subway Domer People’s Champ.” It was a way for me to highlight and praise one of my favorite players each year that didn’t really get the amount of attention that others on the team were receiving.
