During the season he'll be traveling more than he ever did playing. Half his games were home games and they usually traveled Saturday evening for Sunday away games and returned that night. He'll now be leaving Thursday night or Friday morning every week to meet with the Notre Dame staff to prep for the Saturday games and then fly into Stamford, Connecticut where the Sunday Night studio show is hosted. He'll then most likely return home Monday. I'm sure he'll have additional responsibilities throughout the week.
