DIGGS DISCUSSES SIGNING WITH NOTRE DAME
On choosing Notre Dame over LSU …

“They told me what they expected and had in store. They showed me a lot of film and how they'd use me.”
On the last couple months mulling between his options …
“It’s honestly been really stressful. I was stressing on it since really [Tuesday] night. It was a really hard process for me. I'm happy that it's all over with and I get to settle down and know what I'm doing.
“I really wanted to stay home, but at the same time, I felt like I needed that change to go try something new.”
On relationship with Lawrence Keys III …
“I talked to him like a week or two ago. We chopped it up and talked about college. I've been in contact with him.”
On potential early playing time …
“That's been the plan along -- to compete and have the chance to play early. They'll give me every opportunity to do that.”
On fit in Notre Dame's offense …
“I feel that I'll fit in well. The offense is built around the running backs.”
On his message to Notre Dame fans …
“Be ready. You have a dog coming up there.”
