I was very happy for MF and want so bad for him to succeed and he needs to succeed at ND for reasons beyond football. But, like Faust, the eurphoria that ensued after Faust relaced the stoic, yet competent Devine was eerily similar to MF. ND Nation found their man; very likeable, charismatic, love for the institution, "player's - coach" etc. everything that a successful HC needs to embody, except for one thing - HC coaching experience. I just read Faust's book "The Golden Dream." Faust mentions he was told by both Parseghian and Holtz that they needed every year of their prior HC experience to have prepared them for the ND job. You'd think the administration would have learned this lesson from 41 yrs. ago, coupled with the Davie & Weis "experiments" - apparently not....I hope and pray that MF makes it, but for now, he's our HC and he will need everyone's support both inside and outside of the program.
