Is it great that Notre Dame has 10 players out because of coronavirus? No, but it’s also not a reason to panic.
We all knew there’d be positive cases throughout the season. That’s the nature of the beast when you’re playing during a pandemic.
There’s no reason to panic or worry at all.

The players in question didn’t play this past weekend, and they’re in isolation. There’s really not much else you can do.
Notre Dame just needs to let the players heal up, and they can return once that happens. As long as the rest of the team is safe, then the Fighting Irish will be fine.

Four positive tests is no reason to freak out. Everything will be just fine with Notre Dame.
