Notre Dame football: Louis Nix keeps Irish light

Notre Dame Fighting Irish defensive tackle Louis Nix has anchored a strong defense in the early stages of the season, but he's a lot more jovial outside of game situations. Nix spent some time talking to media members on Thursday, and in between bites of a Hershey's candy bar he cracked some jokes and had some fun with J.J. Sankevitz of CSN-Chicago.

For example, Louis explained how his younger brother botched a presentation at school and told his class that his big brother played a very different position for the Irish: "I don't know where they got quarterback from," Nix laughed. "My little brother had a presentation for class and he told them I was the quarterback."

Nix also runs a "Chocolate News" series on YouTube, which has become more popular than he expected, and even pulled in some random praise from a pair of '92 ND graduates in the packing lot on campus.
