Former Notre Dame offensive lineman Pat Coogan narrowed his list of transfer destinations to just two teams earlier this week and on Friday made his final decision.

Coogan will play his final year of eligibility at Indiana University after it was a finalist along with Michigan.

Coogan made the announcement on social media on Friday afternoon.

Coogan wasn't likely to start entering the 2025 season, seeing as he came in as a replacement after an injury to returning center Ashton Craig. However, his leadership and the depth he brought to the defensive line is undeniable.

I think I speak for most Notre Dame fans in saying that I'm glad he's taking his talents to Bloomington and not Ann Arbor.
