Irish Breakdown discusses several Notre Dame football and other college football and NFL topics. We start by discussing comments from new Irish defensive coordinator Chris Ash and new running backs coach Ja'Juan Seider from their Wednesday press conferences. We also discuss Nebraska dropping Tennessee from its 2026 and 2027 schedules and if Notre Dame should add Tennessee to its schedule for those seasons, was Bill Belichick going to North Carolina a good hire and should the NFL ban the Philadelphia Eagles' "Tush Push" play?

Today's Rapid Fire topics include:
* New Notre Dame running backs coach Ja’Juan Seider will talk with the media for the first time since joining the Irish staff on Wednesday. Is there something you’re most anxious or curious to find out about his coaching philosophy/approach?
* Manti Te’o and former USC and NFL quarterback Cody Kessler are hosting Good Morning Football together this week. They each gave their favorite players growing up from the other team.
-Do you have a USC player you liked growing up?
-How about an easier one. Who is your least favorite/most despised USC player?
-Even easier: Who’s your most favorite Notre Dame player from your youth?
* Notre Dame women’s basketball saw its 19-game winning streak end with Sunday’s double overtime loss at NC State. Do you Buy or Sell the loss could be good for the Irish?
* Fill-in the blank...Sonia Citron’s buzzer-beating 3-pointer to send the game to overtime was BLANK.
* The New York Yankees have made a couple announcements in the last week. They’ve changed their facial hair policy to allow their players to have “well-groomed beards” and they’re also going to stop playing Frank Sinatra’s New York, New York in the stadium after losses. Which is more significant?
* Peyton Manning and Eli Manning are three seasons into their Manningcast. Would you rather see them continue to do an alternate Monday Night Football broadcast or have their current format be the main broadcast for say the No. 2 or 3 game for one of the networks on a Sunday afternoon?
* Fill-in the blank...Stephen Jones of the Dallas Cowboys says the team is going to be “selectively aggressive” in its approach to free agents this offseason. That makes you feel BLANK.

The start of Notre Dame spring football practice is three weeks away. Marcus Freeman only lost two full-time assistant coaches from his staff this offseason. That means he has eight coaches returning. Irish Breakdown discusses each of them - Mike Denbrock, Mike Brown, Joe Rudolph, Gino Guidugli, Al Washington, Max Bullough, Mike Mickens, and Marty Biagi - in "word association" fashion.
