Notre Dame’s dependable walk-on with real grind-and-gas tank value
Ketterer is a smart, tough Notre Dame back who made his mark more as a do-everything team asset than a volume runner. In the 2023 season, he played in 10 games, logged two carries for nine yards, caught one pass for four yards, and finished his Irish career with a 6-yard touchdown in the Sun Bowl[14][10]. The bigger differentiator: coaches trusted him on scout team prep, especially for Navy’s triple-option look, and labeled him invaluable for how accurately he mimicked opponents in practice[3]. If you want a player who brings effort, football IQ, and selfless team-first juice, he fits the bill.
