Houston Griffith

We’ve been waiting for this since his commitment. Now it’s time for Griffith to play an important role in for Notre Dame football over the next 2-3 years. He’ll start at corner opposite Troy Pride Jr., and that may mean a heavy workload if Pride locks down his side of the field. Athletically, there’s no question that Griffith is ready for the increased role. It’s the mental aspect, however, that will be the difference between Houston Griffith being a dependable player in the secondary or a liability.
