• Notre Dame DT Jason Onye applies for sixth year of eligibility (on3.com subscription) — A standout season from Notre Dame defensive tackle and North Providence native Jason Onye could continue if the NCAA approves his request for a sixth year of eligibility. Onye, who left the team in 2024 for mental health reasons before returning to start in 2025, finished the year strong and would fill a major need on Notre Dame’s defensive line if granted another season.
