I like Ty Willingham, but he should be hired on MERITS, not because of his color.

Stanford is a good program, much better than Notre Dame was this year....his mertis should certainly qualify him for the job, although I'd rather live in Palo Alto than South Bend myself...

Since South Bend is about 100 miles from me or so and recruits in Michigan, I wish that ND kept Bob Davie myself.......

We beat ND 5 straight times.

Hiring Willingham will not achieve Jesse's goal however since it will not increase the number of Black Head Coaches in Division I football. (Unless Stanford guarantees that they will hire a black coach as his replacement.)

Notre Dame can not elevate a black assistant coach at this point in time because they can not afford to take someone unproven, given Davie's stellar performance.

The above said, the fact that anyone pays any attention to Jackson at this point in time is sickening.
