Notre Dame’s walk-on-turned-scholarship grinder
Josh Anderson is a classic Notre Dame overachiever: a former walk-on RB who earned a scholarship, which tells you plenty about his toughness, buy-in, and value in the room. Public roster/profile sources list him as a 5'9", 205-pound running back, and the lasting story around him is less about flash and more about relentless work, special-teams edge, and being the kind of teammate coaches trust. If you want a back with pedigree in resilience and culture, Anderson fits. If you need a headline power runner with proven stat-sheet production, the available profile data doesn’t show that.
