ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The transfer portal and NIL have reshaped college athletics. On this episode of The Playbook, host Ian Book sits down with Coach Micah Shrewsberry and Ethan Roberts to talk about navigating both, and what it takes to hold onto Notre Dame's culture while everything else in the sport is changing.
Ethan opens up about his own path through the transfer portal — the uncertainty, and what ultimately made him excited about Notre Dame's program. Coach Shrewsberry brings the other side of it, discussing what it means to protect a culture built on trust and accountability when the landscape keeps shifting. Together, they dig into how Notre Dame's identity shapes the way both of them approach NIL and the portal — and why culture is still the thing that has to hold, no matter what else changes.
The Playbook is a Rally Podcast, presented by Priority Commerce, and distributed by iHeartPodcasts.
