You are so perceptive young man. My daughter is a recent grad. Of course I have some bias towards them much like I have had towards Florida.
Odd how people can have absolutely nothing to do with Notre Dame and that's ok. Like half or more of this board.
Smart is a very good coach, will quickly be considered elite, and guarantee more highly thought of than Kelly
Give Kelly tremendous credit for this year........but he is far from elite.
One thing Smart does far better than Kelly.......quarterback.....he essentially has gotten the #1 QB for about 4 years running now.
