More than a third of the 114 players on the roster have been impacted as the team continues conditioning activities.

Tuesday, Coach Kelly told ESPN the outbreak was the result of an asymptomatic player eating a meal with the team before the South Florida game, who then became nauseated on the sideline during the game.

The Irish do NOT have a game scheduled for this weekend.
