What a crock. I'm not at all a Notre Dame fan, and I think the racial angle will be tremendously overblown, but this still sucks. The guy comes across as a class act, his team plays hard, and he only gets three seasons? And the first season he didn't have much of a recruiting class because of the timing of his hiring.
If I'm a Division I athletic director or a pro team, I put this guy on speed dial and call him the minute it's official.

He deserved one more year. Although it's notable that his best coaching year was with Bob Davie's players.
Nevertheless, I like the guy. A lot. He's stoic. In a good way. I would have liked to see him have one more chance.
