Dave Peloquin, who has had a role in Notre Dame football since head coach Bob Davies tenure, is leaving the program to take a role with Athletes First as reported by John Brice of FootballScoop.
While his work recently hasn’t been specifically with the on-field portion of the football team, he was still part of the university’s Name, Image, and Likeness department as the assistant athletic director for football strategic initiatives reported Eric Hanson in April of 2023.
Athletes First already has a big influence on the NFL, as former Notre Dame star safety Kyle Hamilton is on their roster. They also employ former head coach Brian Kelly, as they will now look to make a bigger impact within college football.
You can most likely expect more than a few current and future Irish stars to join that team, as their relationships with Peloquin should give them a bit of an advantage with his new company. We wish Dave the best in his new role, especially considering he was a lifer inside Notre Dame football.
