Notre Dame redshirt freshman G Alex Bars will miss the remainder of the 2015 regular season due to a fractured ankle.
Bars suffered the injury during Saturday’s 41-31 win over USC. With the 6-foot-6, 320-pound redshirt freshman down for the count, Quenton Nelson took over against the Trojans. Nelson himself is dealing with a bit of an ankle sprain, but HC Brian Kelly was pleased with how he fought through the aches and pains. “That’s the expectation here,” said Kelly, “You’re going to have to play banged up.”
