I'd be willing to bet that Willingham will just turn out to be average. He might go 8-3 or 7-4 for a couple of seasons but thats it. Nothing more... He might be a great "organizer" but he definitely does not have that winning record people are talking about.
I disagree. At Notre Dame he'll have far better kids to work with then he ever had at Stanford. Next year will be a wash no matter what since all the recruiting is over, but in a few years people will forget about Davie.
I read somewhere last week that Lou Holtz had a similar record to Willingham before being hired. Does anybody have that info?
