I.

I.B. Nation. Welcome back to another edition of the Irish Breakdown podcast. Happy Friday. It is Friday, February 14. So that means a couple of things, folks. Ladies and gentlemen, it is the Friday free for all mailbag. It is also Valentine's Day. So happy Valentine's Day. Everybody? Absolutely. It is Valentine's Day. But more importantly, at least to me, more importantly, Notre

Day made a big hire that was announced here in the last 24 hours. They have now found their new general

manager and they found that gentleman in Mike Martin, who's coming over from the Detroit Lions.

So what we're going to do today, folks, is we are going to talk through the Mike Martin

High, and we're going to dive into what it means for Notre Dame and what Marcus Freeman has

been doing.

And then, of course, it's Friday.

We have our Friday free-for-all mailbag.

So be sure to submit your questions in the chat.

We're going to answer as many of them as we can. All super chats get bumped up to the top.

So if you want your question answered right away, you can go ahead and submit a super chat.

This is not just for premium board members. This is for anybody that listens to the show on a

regular basis. So right now there's 165 people in the chat. All 165 of you listening can submit

a question if you guys have something that's came up over the last couple days.

But I'm ready to get rolling. Brian, how are you doing today, man?

I'm doing great. Doing great, man. It was kind of funny. I woke up this morning and I got text messages from somebody saying,

hey, just so you know, Mike Martin's

going to be the guy. And this was, and then of, of course, the sequence was, I got those texts.

Then Adam Schaefter tweeted it out. Then there was, you know, there's just all this. And I'm like,

oh, well, this is what I get for sleeping until 830 with all this news going on. But it's a big move, Trev.

And we're going to talk about Mike Martin.
