Interesting little tidbit that surprises nobody: The Chargers are the Fighting Irish South. After the roster cut-downs, there are 30 players from Notre Dame on the rosters of the NFL's 32 teams. That's an average of less than one per roster. But there five on the Chargers' roster:

Tillery
Tranqill
Rochelle
Gilman
Guyton

In addition, there are two 2020 UDFAs apparently headed for the PS (unless they're claimed off waivers):
LB Asmar Bilal
CB Donte Vaughn

If the Irish ever have another guy with a first name of Rudy, might as well count him in on the Chargers roster when he is draft eligible...

Love Ekeler's attitude!

Yep...use that good old Notre Dame Victory March song for Bolt highlights:

So if we keep drafting Notre Dame guys, shouldn’t we be rooting for them to recruit and develop guys well?

I have no college allegiance, GO IRISH!!

Might as well change the color of the chargers helmet to a golden domer! :Cheers1:

Is there a statistic that breaks down college conferences and how they do in the NFL? Otherwise every team would just go with the SEC and the ACC.

i read awhile back that the ACC (or was it the big East?) had the most success.

Yep...a golden dome with bolts for one of our alternate uni combos...

Stephen Anderson - I think he's the reason neither Nabors or Holly were retained and why there is no FB on the roster. Anderson at 6-2, 230 entered the NFL draft as a tight end, but was primarily a WR at Cal. He as the lightest TE prospect in the 2016 draft and tied with one other for the least tall. NFL Draft Scout's listed him as the best fullback prospect in 2016. He runs 4.64 40. He was undrafted but signed as a UDFA by the Texans. In two years with the Texans he had 36 receptions for 435 yards and two scores. He's 27 now. I think they wanted to keep Parham at all costs, but, at this point anyway, preferred to keep Anderson over either of the UDFA FB prospects. Anderson is virtually the same height/weight as Derek Watt, but a bit faster.
