83 years old (Born on July 04, 1941)
Happy Birthday, Coach Digger Phelps! From your legendary two-decade run at Notre Dame—highlighted by that unforgettable 1974 upset over UCLA—to your insightful commentary on ESPN, you've always been a slam dunk. Your colorful highlighters and even brighter personality have made basketball analysis as entertaining as the games themselves.May this birthday be filled with laughter, joy—and perhaps fewer overtime nail-biters than you're used to. Here's hoping you celebrate like it's another thrilling Irish victory: loud cheers, great company, and plenty of cake (just don't diagram plays in the frosting). Keep shining bright; you're truly timeless!
