Great letter!!
You brought up up Coach Holtz in your letter and I was thinking Saturday after the game...where would ND be as a program if Coach Holtz wouldn't have left when he did. I was crushed when he left and I think he is an incredible person and Head Coach.
We wouldn't have had to endure the Davie, Willingham and Weiss years for one thing and I really think if Dick Rosenthal hadn't left as AD, the ND program would be in much better shape, as Coach Holtz wouldn't have left. Instead they hired Wadsworth as AD, who screwed everything up.
Not that any of that matters, cause it didn't happen but I guess my point is instead of looking at the players and coaches, I think we should look at who is running the school. Stanford's admin has found a way to keep their high academic standards and still produce consistent, quality football teams. Wish we could follow suit.
