Irish Breakdown answers listener/subscriber submitted questions about Notre Dame women's basketball on today's show. IB's Sean Stires, who is also the radio announcer for Irish women's hoops, is joined by Vince DeDario to answer questions. Some of today's questions include: * What needs to happen during the tournament for the team to win the national championship? * Has freshman post Kate Koval exceeded expectations, or simply met them so far? * Who is out of eligibility after this year, and who is likely to leave early? In other words, who will likely need to be replaced for next year? * Is the “we're all good” attitude on playing time, and ball possession starting to tarnish? Seems like the Louisville, and Va Tech game there were a handful of times, with an open shooter, a player had a face like no-no I'm getting mine. * Has Sonia Citron's role been reduced a little. Seems like she rarely gets 30+ minutes. * How much fun is it to watch Hannah Hidalgo? On TV it's like did she really just do that. Does it look more impressive in person? * Not surprised Liatu King is playing well. Do you think the offense should balance a little more to the inside? * This season ND football took a very aggressive approach to forcing depth to play in order to keep the team as fresh as possible for the playoff season. What does NDWBB do to get the players in peak physical condition for the postseason? Do these concerns impact Niele Ivey's substitution strategies? If yes, how do concerns affect her strategies? * What is the status of Emma Risch? Should we be concerned with her durability? Will she be able to take some minutes off the trio of Hannah, Olivia Miles & Sonia down the stretch? * Per ESPN's stats, ND has committed 325 turnovers in 21 games (15.47 avg per game). Having watched every game, the turnovers often come in bunches & are caused by various issues. Sometimes the lineups don't look comfortable working together yet; sometimes ball handling's an issue; sometimes passes are off target or are made without seeing a defender; sometimes the mental focus seems to drift. What can and should NDWBB be doing to cleanup this issue? As one example, to get you started, Cassandre Prosper has had dozens of turnovers where a pass goes offer hand(s) and out of bounds. Seems to me she needs to do some of those Pistol Pete drills where you rotate the ball around your torso & tap the ball from hand to hand. * With UCLA absolutely rolling & South Carolina looking dominant in all their games except the double digit loss to UCLA, how does ND matchup against those teams? * Niele Ivey has done a good job of utilizing our depth this year, but it's been hard to keep track of which players are playing on the court at the same time. Does Niele tend to play a limited number of lineups that have the same players in together at the same time? Or has she mixed and matched? * Liatu King has been phenomenal in many ways this season. Her addition to the team seems like a near perfect marriage based on her strengths & the role NDWBB needed King to play. Yet, she's only 20 for 44 shooting FTs, which is 45.5%. Once the postseason comes, teams with depth and size may play extra physical & force the referees to call fouls which could put Liatu on the line a lot in close games. Is NDWBB doing anything to improve her free throw shooting? Can ND sub in bigger lineups anytime she gets to the FT line in order to increase their chances of getting a rebound on her missed FTs? How else can ND minimize the damage of her missed free throws turning into easy rebounds for the other team? * I was trying to come up with a comparison for Hannah, and the best I came up with is that she is a female Allen Iverson. What are your thoughts? * Would you rather a backcourt of Jackie Young and Arike Ogunbowale or Miles and Hidalgo? * Do you think the team is having a hard time adjusting to the Hannah's playing style and Olivia's playing style. They are both amazing floor generals and at the same time very different players. * What is Coach Ivey's strategy for recruiting? It seems like she targets a few high level players and either gets them or not. Also her classes seem to usually be pretty small. * Also how are we losing out on a lot of top 100 in state recruits? * Lauren Betts UCLA-If ND ends up playing UCLA in the tournament, how much of a problem will she be (with her size 6'7” and game)? * What is our biggest weakness as a team? * What team or teams do you think will give ND the toughest matchup?

We've got a guest packed show as Golic is out traveling this week after calling Monday Night Football. First up is The Dan LeBatard Show's very own Lucy Rohden! Smetty asks Rohden about attending the Red River Rivalry game. The Longhorns lost to the Sooners and Lucy lost to the fried fair foods. Fried Butter. Fried Fireball. Corndogs for breakfast. Oklahoma's defense pleasantly surprised Rohden, but Texas' repeated errors did not. According to her, Texas fans should be mad that they didn't burn more time on the clock and the early turnovers that ultimately led to their 34-30 loss. Who is going to screw up the most in the Big-12? Is there truly competition in the conference? Jess is confused about Iowa State's uniforms (Lucy explains and it's not what you think). Lucy recently moved to Miami and is now a stone-cold hater. The two discuss the Miami v Georgia Tech game with the surprising end that has everyone talking.

Despite trailing 49-46 at halftime, they orchestrated one of the most memorable comebacks in WNBA playoff history.Gray, Young, and Plum, who've clearly built a strong bond over the seasons, displayed incredible chemistry on the court. Their defense was on point too, making life difficult for the Liberty's Sabrina Ionescu and Courtney Vandersloot, with the Aces nailing an incredible 11 of 12 contested shots when guarded by them.

The goal now for Denver is to avoid a letdown against the Miami Heat in what will be the first title-clinching opportunity in franchise history. The Nuggets are trying to keep their minds on hoops, not that trophy, and the mission could be helped by the fact that Miami’s only win in this series came a week ago in Denver. Also, the Heat have won seven road games during the postseason. NBA – Conor McGregor knocks out Heat mascot in bizarre promotion at NBA Finals Former UFC champion Conor McGregor knocked out the Miami Heat mascot in a midgame bit that went wrong.

Nygaard would not say what changes will be made, citing league policy and safety concerns about the team’s future road trips. Brittney Griner’s teammates say they were startled when a “social media figure” confronted Griner at the airport. Airport officials eventually escorted the team’s players to a different room with more privacy.

Golf – Nick Taylor wins Canadian Open, first Canadian champion since 1954 Nick Taylor became the first Canadian in 69 years to win his national open, holing a 72-foot eagle putt on the fourth playoff hole to beat Tommy Fleetwood in the RBC Canadian Open.

NASCAR – Martin Truex Jr. surges to 4th career Sonoma Raceway victory Martin Truex Jr. has won at Sonoma Raceway for the fourth time.

NBA – 2023 NBA Finals – (best of seven) Tonight Game 5 Miami Heat at Denver Nuggets, 8:30 p.m. (DEN leads 3-1) NBA – Nuggets try to avoid letdown with 1 win to go for team’s first title Everything from the history books to the way they’ve played through most of the postseason suggests the Denver Nuggets are on the verge of capturing their first NBA title in 47 years in the league. The goal now for Denver is to avoid a letdown against the Miami Heat in what will be the first title-clinching opportunity in franchise history. The Nuggets are trying to keep their minds on hoops, not that trophy, and the mission could be helped by the fact that Miami’s only win in this series came a week ago in Denver. Also, the Heat have won seven road games during the postseason. NBA – Conor McGregor knocks out Heat mascot in bizarre promotion at NBA Finals Former UFC champion Conor McGregor knocked out the Miami Heat mascot in a midgame bit that went wrong. The man who plays “Burnie,” briefly sought medical attention Friday night after taking two punches from McGregor during a third-quarter stoppage of Game 4 of the NBA Finals between the Heat and the Denver Nuggets. The Heat said Saturday that the employee wearing the flame costume, who was not identified, received pain medication and was resting at home. NHL – 2023 NHL Stanley Cup Finals – (best of seven) Tuesday Game 5 Florida Panthers at Vegas Golden Knights, 8:00 p.m. (VGK leads 3-1) NHL – Golden Knights try not to think of Stanley Cup returning to Vegas on verge of title The Vegas Golden Knights left Florida on the verge of winning the Stanley Cup. The trophy will be in the building the next time they play. That’s back at home in Game 5 of the final on Tuesday night against the Panthers. But the immediate task at hand for players and coaches is not to dwell on how close they are to the franchise’s first title. The Golden Knights have shown all playoffs and throughout this series that they are championship-worthy. NHL – Status of Tkachuk is biggest question facing Panthers down 3-1 in Cup Final The status of leading scorer Matthew Tkachuk is the biggest question facing the Florida Panthers down 3-1 to Vegas in the Stanley Cup Final. Tkachuk left for a stretch during the third period of Game 4 because of an undisclosed injury. Coach Paul Maurice said any of his injured players would be treated before and after flying to Las Vegas for Game 5. Florida would make history by becoming the first team in 81 years to erase a 3-1 deficit in the final. Women’s National Basketball Association Yesterday Las Vegas Aces 93, Chicago Sky 80 Phoenix Mercury 85, Indiana Fever 82 Aces 93, Sky 80 – Wilson has 21 points, 10 rebounds as Aces cruise to 93-80 win over Sky A’ja Wilson had 21 points and 10 rebounds, Chelsea Gray added 19 points on 8-of-9 shooting and the Las Vegas Aces beat the Chicago Sky 93-80.

NaLyssa Smith scored five straight points for Indiana and the Fever led 77-72 near the five-minute mark, she also finished with 29 points. WNBA –Mercury make travel ‘adjustments’ following airport incident with Griner Phoenix Mercury coach Vanessa Nygaard says the WNBA team will adjust its travel plans following Saturday’s incident in the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. Nygaard would not say what changes will be made, citing league policy and safety concerns about the team’s future road trips. Brittney Griner’s teammates say they were startled when a “social media figure” confronted Griner at the airport. Airport officials eventually escorted the team’s players to a different room with more privacy. The league says it approved charter flights to all road games this season for the All-Star after she returned from detainment in Russia. Golf – Nick Taylor wins Canadian Open, first Canadian champion since 1954 Nick Taylor became the first Canadian in 69 years to win his national open, holing a 72-foot eagle putt on the fourth playoff hole to beat Tommy Fleetwood in the RBC Canadian Open. Taylor tossed his putter into the air and jumped into the arms of his caddie after the longest made putt of his PGA Tour career. Fellow Canadian players Mike Weir, Corey Conners and Adam Hadwin were among those who ran out to the green to congratulate him. Hadwin was tackled on the green by a security guard. The last player from Canada to win the Canadian Open was Pat Fletcher in 1954 at Point Grey in Vancouver.

Djokovic broke a tie with Rafael Nadal for the most major singles trophies in the history of men’s tennis. Nadal is a 14-time champion at Roland Garros who missed the tournament because he is injured. Djokovic adds to the French Open titles he earned in 2016 and 2021. He is the only man with at least three titles from each major. He also won 10 trophies at the Australian Open, seven at Wimbledon and three at the U.S. Open. NASCAR – Martin Truex Jr. surges to 4th career Sonoma Raceway victory Martin Truex Jr. has won at Sonoma Raceway for the fourth time. He passed Chase Elliott for the lead after a late restart and held off Kyle Busch for his second NASCAR Cup Series victory of the season. Truex confidently drove his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota to another victory on the hilly road course at the base of Northern California wine country, where he also won in 2013, 2018 and 2019. Only Jeff Gordon with five has more victories at Sonoma than Truex, who earned the 33rd win of his Cup career and his second in the last six races. NCAAFB – Michigan to face USC and UCLA in Big Ten’s new schedule rotation in 2024 Southern California and UCLA will both face Michigan during their first season as members of the Big Ten Conference in 2024.
