Notre Dame accidentally sends camp invite to a Rutgers player
By Andrew Ross
Notre Dame needs to get up to date with things, because they recently sent a two-year Rutgers player some information about their camps.
Chris Muller is a 6’6″, 300-pound offensive lineman for the Rutgers Scarlet Knights – and he has been for a couple of years now.

I’m not sure if Notre Dame simply has not updated their recruiting mailing list or what, but they recently sent the offensive lineman some information about their prospect camps for high school players.
Muller was a good sport about things.
It would have been one thing if it was a recruitment letter, but an invitation to a camp? Yeesh.
Muller has started 25 games at right guard in his time at Rutgers, and one of those starts seems pretty funny right about now.
The 2013 Pinstripe Bowl was held between Notre Dame and Rutgers (the former won 29-16), and of course, Muller started that game against the Fighting Irish.
I don’t know if Muller should either be flattered that he impressed Notre Dame so much that they sent him this letter, or insulted that the opponent did not even notice him at all.
I’m just impressed that a top program could have their mailing list this outdated.
Notre Dame has had some heat from the NCAA over the past few seasons, and their last wrongdoing happened at the beginning of last season when it was discovered that a lot of their players had committed academic violations.
I feel like the NCAA could get involved with this if they really wanted to since it does look like Notre Dame is going after an active player, but hopefully they will realize that it was just a mistake and nothing more will come from this accident.
At least Muller got some nice publicity and a good laugh from the camp invite.
