‘Class Act’: Jadarian Price Brings Professional Approach, Rare Traits to Seahawks’ Backfield
No matter where a prospect starred, even in an era now defined by NIL and the transfer portal that has blurred the lines between amateur and professional considerably, there’s no such thing as a college football player being 100% prepared for jumping up to the highest level of the sport in the NFL.
If there’s a program that truly offers the complete package preparation-wise prior to entering the league, however, the “golden domers” at Notre Dame may just take the cake. The Fighting Irish not only have one of the most storied traditions for winning in college football on the field with 972 victories all-time, but they boast one of the most prestigious academic institutions in the world, providing a unique, one-of-a-kind environment that fosters both strong work ethic and real world habits that translate well to the high-stakes life of playing in the NFL.
Earning a degree in sociology while helping Notre Dame reach a College Football Playoff Championship Game along the way, Jadarian Price made the most of his four-year experience in South Bend, and as the latest first round pick for the Seattle Seahawks, he’s already seeing the benefits of playing for the Fighting Irish as he adapts to his new team and surroundings.
