Notre Dame basketball’s brutal loss to Pitt, Micah Shrewsberry’s disappointing Year 3 season, ACC Tournament implications, transfer portal concerns involving Jalen Haralson and Certa, and what it would take to upset Duke are all on the table in this deep dive into the state of the program. Tyler Wojciak is joined by Notre Dame basketball beater writer Tom Noie of the South Bend Tribune to break down the missed opportunity at Pittsburgh, evaluate Shrewsberry’s third season amid injuries to Markus Burton and Haralson, discuss the temperature inside the program, examine the stakes of possibly missing the ACC Tournament, and look ahead to what the offseason must look like for Notre Dame basketball to regain momentum.
