Description: Notre Dame basketball enters ACC play at a crossroads after an embarrassing non-conference loss wiped away weeks of momentum and goodwill. Tyler Wojciak is joined by Tom Noie, longtime Notre Dame men’s basketball beat writer for the South Bend Tribune, to break down what the non-conference season actually revealed, why the loss to Purdue Fort Wayne felt so damaging, and how much progress Micah Shrewsberry’s program has truly made. The conversation also dives into life without Markus Burton, the rapid development of freshman standout Jalen Haralson, and what Notre Dame must show in ACC play to regain belief from its fanbase. (0:00) - Intro(1:39) - Non-Conference Review(11:30) - Burton Injury Impact(22:50) - ACC Preview Follow Tyler on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TylerWojciakFollow Locked On Irish on Twitter: https://twitter.com/LockedOnIrishFollow Locked On Irish on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lockedonirishpod/?hl=enSubscribe to Locked on Irish on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC749D_LgykIE8WLu7W4UQlQ Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
