It is premium so I cannot paste it. It is a summary of Mike Brey's tenure at ND. It puts the 18 years in context. He certainly credits what he calls the 'golden years' -- 2014-16 -- but looking at the entire tenure may be sobering to some of you who are either too young to remember his entire ND career (I envy you, truly), or too blinded by his brief shining moments. O'Malley is an excellent writer, certainly not a guy with an ax to grind, and I recommend his columns as a good objective read for all ND fans. Plus his discussions with his three-year old son, Declan, are priceless.
