The school unveiled a brand new football-specific leprechaun logo, that shows the school mascot running with a football. This is the first in a series of sport-specific leprechaun logos that will be used by the university on its apparel. The university's official football account announced the logo with an awesome video.

According to NBC News, a spokeswoman from Notre Dame said that the creation of the new logo started in 2024.

"The Leprechaun represents the tenacious and determined spirit of the Fighting Irish, a relentless desire to seize every opportunity with unity, clarity and purpose though the odds be great or small," Notre Dame said in a statement. "This logo, drawn from a legacy known around the world, represents Fighting Irish Football."
