Notre Dame Basketball Faces Setback as Tae Davis, Carey Booth Enter Transfer Portal

Notre Dame men's basketball is facing significant changes as forward Tae Davis has entered the transfer portal following a challenging season. Davis was a standout for the Fighting Irish, averaging 15.1 points and 5.3 rebounds per game, marking a notable improvement from his previous season. His departure adds to the uncertainty for a program that finished with a disappointing 15-18 record and missed the NCAA Tournament. Meanwhile, Carey Booth has also announced his entry into the transfer portal for the second consecutive year after a decline in performance at Illinois, raising speculation about a possible return to Notre Dame. Head coach Micah Shrewsberry expressed hope for retention of players like star guard Trey Burton amidst these transitions, emphasizing the program's potential benefits. The Irish now face the challenge of rebuilding their roster as they prepare for the upcoming season.
