…After much improvement, another test awaits Jon Runyan Jon Runyan Jr. was hesitant to watch his team’s season-opening loss at Notre Dame. The redshirt junior left tackle knew it would make him sick to his stomach. But last Friday, for the first time, he chose to anyway. What Runyan saw was not always pretty.
