Notre Dame football is used to being a high profile program. They get publicity like no other college football team. But this year’s roster is unique. In that it’s loaded with the kids who’s fathers are very rich and (some of them) very famous. And grew up in a household that is no stranger to publicity.
Notre Dame football in 2013 is a roster filled with children of the elite, including:
Jon Bon Jovi‘s –> Jesse Bongiovi
Torii Hunter –> Torii Hunter Jr.
David Robinson –>Corey Robinson
Cris Collinsworth –>Austin Collinsworth
George Atkinson (ten year NFL pro) –> Josh and George Atkinson
Phillip Daniels–>DaVaris Daniels
This Notre Dame football team may not go 12-0 again in the regular season. (They are 1-0 after beating a Temple team which is barely FBS. ND is a 4.5 point underdog heading to Michigan Saturday night. However, they might be leading the nation in players who were born on third base. Imagine if Johnny Manziel were somehow on this Notre Dame football team; then you’d really have an entitled All-Star team.
