'08 IL LB Steve Filer (Signed LOI to ND)

[BGIF]

You have to participate in 30% or less competition and none of that can come after the midway point of the season. So I would say, no unfortunately.

Do you have a cite for the 30% number? NCAA Bylaw 14.2.4, Medical Hardship Waiver says 20%.


Regardless of the percentage in the rule, Filer played in all 9 games.

Was this a practice injury? I don't remember Kelly talking about this on Sunday after the game.

Yes

I really think if he gets healthy ASAP he could make an NFL team and be a special teams player for 10 years.

That's too bad. Hope he gets a shot in the NFL if he wants it.

Sucks the best memories I will have of him are his videos where he jumps out of the pool and where he jumps the ND hologram. Hopefully he makes it in the NFL. Dude is a freak.

#NotreDame senior outside linebacker Steve Filer is out of the season with an ACL (knee). Teammate Darius Fleming will wear his No. 46 Sat.

^^ BK mentioned in his post practice today.

Guess it happened in a non contract drill. Unfortunate.

Here's the tweet.

I think that's an awesome thing for Fleming to do. He knows Filer has played his last play at ND and wants to honor him.

The guys actually love their teammates...not bad.

A lot of my brothers got their friends for life in this game.
