Okay, so I’ve been digging into the Notre Dame football roster for 2024, and let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a journey. I wanted to put together a comprehensive list of all the players, their positions, and maybe a few stats here and there.
First off, I started by just googling around for the “2024 Notre Dame football roster.” I found a bunch of different websites, each with their own way of presenting the information. Some were simple lists, others had all sorts of filters and sort options. But no one resource was able to meet my need. So, I decided to gather all the infomation I need.
I grabbed a pen and paper, feeling a bit old-school, and started making a list. I went through a few of the more reliable-looking websites and jotted down each player’s name. I noticed they usually listed the players numerically or alphabetically, which made things a little easier to organize.
Then, I started filling in the positions. Most players had a clear position listed like WR (Wide Receiver) or OL (Offensive Lineman). For example, I saw Deion Colzie listed as a Wide Receiver, number 0, and Sullivan Absher as an Offensive Lineman, number 75. There were a few that were a bit more general, but I did my best to figure them out.
Next up was the height and weight. This was a bit more inconsistent across the different sources, but I managed to find something for most of the players. It’s pretty interesting to see the size differences between positions. Like, Deion Colzie is listed at 6’4″ and 209 lbs, while Sullivan Absher is a massive 6’7″ and 318 lbs. I’m adding that detail information.
I also wanted to get an idea of their experience level, so I looked for their class year (like Senior or Sophomore). This part took a bit of cross-referencing, but I eventually got most of them filled in. For instance, I could clearly know that Deion Colzie is a senior and will be a senior this year. Sullivan Absher is a Sophomore but will be a freshman this year.
Detailed Information
Here is the part of the information I collected:
- Deion Colzie, WR, 6’4″, 209 lbs, Senior
- Sullivan Absher, OL, 6’7″, 318 lbs, Sophomore, will be a Freshman this year.
I even stumbled upon some stats for a few players. Like, I found out that Mitch Jeter, a kicker, made 12 out of 14 field goals in 2023 when he played for South Carolina. Pretty cool!
After a few hours of this, I finally had a pretty solid list going. I decided to use a spreadsheet to organize everything. I made columns for the player’s number, name, position, height, weight, class, eligibility, and hometown. I also added a column for any extra notes or stats I found.
It was a bit of a tedious process, but I finally managed to create a pretty comprehensive roster for the 2024 Notre Dame football team. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out, and I think it’ll be a useful resource for any fan who wants to learn more about the team. Now I can find the detailed information of the player I want to know quickly.
