Floyd is rock of Irish offense

Notre Dame recruit Matt James was killed in an accident during spring break in April. And last month, student videographer Declan Sullivan died after the tower from which he was filming practice toppled over on a windy day.

“It is emotional for our whole team,” Floyd said. “Everybody keeps it in their memories, and we dedicated that (Tulsa) game to Declan. …Keeping both of them in our minds is really what’s the best thing for us. But as a team, we’ve got to move on, and we’ve got to kind of get past that a little bit.”
