For me, I've always said he is more than capable as a coach, just wasn't sure he wanted to be or allowed himself to be - at times.
His statement when hired about - not needing top athletes to play well, compete and keep ND as a top school in football as well as scholastically was not a great place for him to start - all the feel of having another Willingham at the helm.
Hiring dolts like BVG and so on, never really made sense and then, where do we as fans place our trust in seeing a coach mishandle what we see as something special?
