All are purely hunches based off my watching ND my entire life.

(1) Notre Dame does not make the playoffs in the next two years, and it isn't close. If they can somehow find a pass rush this prediction might be changed at a later date.
(2) Josh Barajas leaves ND with better career numbers than Jaylon Smith, but isn't drafted as high.
(3) Tillery ends up being a really solid DT that ND fans love the heck out of, but not a CFB star
(4) Greg Bryant never gets 500 rushing yards in a season in his ND or NFL career. Any potential transfer after he graduates is not included in this prediction.
(5) Tarean Folston will kick ass and chew bubblegum this fall.

 

[IrishLax]

1. Brian Kelly leaves after this year.
2. The NCAA hammers Notre Dame with 2 years of vacated wins and scholarship reductions over the Frozen Five because the student was technically a part time employee of the athletic department and therefor a "university representative".
3. Notre Dame loses to Texas after the Longhorns unveil their new uptempo spread that no one has any film on.
4. Steve Addazio will be the next head coach at Notre Dame.
5. Swarbrick bolts after the Frozen Five sanctions are handed down, and The Koon is named interim athletic director.
