Welcome to the latest episode of the Shamrock. I'm Pete Samson. We'll be joined in the second by Matt

Fortuna. Today's episode, we have a very special guest, the first Hall of Fame guest in the history of our podcast, Muffet McGraw, now former Notre Dame women's basketball coach.

We talked a lot about not only her tenure here, but as football has marked time through her 33 years, some insight into Brian Kelly, a little bit of talk about Clark Lee, Notre Dame's

defensive coordinator, and some talk about Notre Dame in general in terms of not only

where she would like to see the university go, how she wants to stay involved with it,

but just sort of how it's changed and what makes it unique,

distinct from some other universities in college athletics today. After that interview,

Matt and I will talk a little bit about the NFL draft. Notre Dame had six picks over the weekend

all the way from the second round down to the sixth round. So we'll chat about that and sort of how

Notre Dame fits into the bigger picture of college

athletics.

If you haven't seen Matt's take on Ohio State's draft success as it relates to Urban

Meyer, perhaps not fulfilling all the potential there, you might want to check that on

the athletic.com.

But we will get into the NFL draft talk after our Hall of Fame conversation with

Muffin McGrath.

Pleased to be joined today on the Shamrock, 33-year Notre Dame head coach, nine-time

final four, two-time national champions, Hall of Fame, Muffin McGraw.

One, thank you so much for doing this.

I know it's been a kind of wild last couple weeks.

I guess just in terms of how is it gone processing being former Notre Dame head coach Muffet Mughey.

I haven't got used to it yet.
