We start Rapid Fire by discussing the news that Notre Dame’s exclusive negotiating period with Under Armour has expired, which makes Notre Dame free to negotiate its shoe and apparel deal on the open market. Other topics include:
* Notre Dame cornerbacks and linebackers are in the top 10 in preseason positional rankings.
* Former Irish and current Alabama offensive coordinator Tommy Rees is also ranked among the top 10 college offensive coordinators. Would he be as highly considered if he were still at Notre Dame?
* Thoughts on the reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs will open the NFL season against the Detroit Lions.
* Thoughts on Aaron Rodgers' first game as a New York Jet being on Monday Night Football vs Josh Allen and Buffalo.
* Orlando, Florida has a $1.7 million dollar stadium proposal on the table in the hopes of bringing in a Major League Baseball team. Do we Buy or Sell another big league team in Florida?
* LA Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts stayed by himself in an Air BNB in Milwaukee while the rest of the team stayed in an old hotel that is thought to be haunted.
* Golden State beat the LA Lakers Wednesday night to send their playoff series to Game 6 back in Los Angeles. We have thoughts on the Warriors' game 5 game plan.
