Notre Dame Coach Micah Shrewsberry Suffers Confirmed Achilles Injury During Duke Rout

School officials have no plans to replace him during the season.

Overview

  • Notre Dame confirmed Shrewsberry sustained an Achilles injury in the first half against No. 1 Duke, though the exact timing and severity were not disclosed.
  • He was helped to the locker room at halftime by freshman Tommy Ahneman, returned with a black walking boot, and later addressed media on crutches.
  • Shrewsberry remained mostly seated after the injury and told reporters, "The season of hell continues."
  • Notre Dame lost 100-56 in what multiple outlets described as the worst home defeat in program history, dropping the team to 12-16 (3-12 ACC).
  • ESPN’s Jeff Borzello reported the university has no appetite for an immediate move, with Shrewsberry under contract through the 2029-30 season and his short-term availability uncertain.
