The Hey Horka! BlueandGold.com message board mailbag column originates each week with a message board thread titled “Hey Horka!” Subscribers are prompted to ask Blue & Gold beat writer Tyler Horka questions about Notre Dame football. He answers all of them in the thread and in an article that publishes later in the week at BlueandGold.com.
Every Wednesday night at 8 p.m. ET, Horka hosts a YouTube live show with coworker Jack Soble discussing in greater detail some of the most pressing questions from the thread. You can watch the show via the video player on this web page or by visiting Blue & Gold’s YouTube channel .

More about this week’s show
• The guys begin by briefly discussing what happened to Notre Dame against NIU.
• Then it’s time to talk Notre Dame’s quarterback situation. Should Riley Leonard get the starting nod against Purdue even with a bum non-throwing shoulder and the way he threw the football against the Huskies? Or should junior Steve Angeli get a look? Heck, is it time to start thinking about sophomore Kenny Minchey or freshman CJ Carr? Every option is mentioned in the discussion. (10:24)
• Speaking of Leonard’s injury and his issues throwing the football. All things Leonard are harped on after the debate about which Notre Dame quarterback should start against the Boilermakers. (30:10)
• The gets get changed rather authoritatively to dive into a discussion about why the Notre Dame football program is still in a place in which we’re talking about a loss to NIU in Week 2 of a season that was supposed to bring so much more good than bad to South Bend. Why are the Fighting Irish in this spot right now? (41:44))
• Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman had two opportunities to smooth the situation following the loss to NIU; his postgame press conference and his Monday press conference. How’d he do? Is what he said sufficient? The guys delve into that. (51:44)
• Lastly, the Notre Dame defensive line has been lackluster to begin the 2024 season. What can be done about it, if anything? (1:00:54)
