At Notre Dame you have an institution drenched in narcissism. They don't really believe they need a coach at all. Any damn fool off the street will become the next Ara Parseghian, just by virtue of the shadow of the golden era of the late 1940's. Plus, with their radio network, every senile union thug in the midwest thinks ND is still a national contender, even though they haven't done squat in 20 years.
As I've said before, ND is a marketing monster, but the pencilnecks in marketing don't get the job done on the field.
Only at Notre Dame can a coach "go for the tie" in a nationally televised game for #1 and be hailed as as "Great."
Here's hoping their new coach works out just as well as the last coach from the Cincinnati area.
