Most schools go through it. USC, Texas & Florida just to name of few. Other than Devine following Ara, Notre Dame always takes a hit. ALWAYS! He didn't win a National Championship but Kelly turned the program completely around. Hopefully this isn't a cycle like the Davie, Willingham & Weis Era's. Freeman would have to make the playoffs then beat the two best teams in the country to surpass Kelly. Marcus could turn out to be a hell of a coach but I doubt it's at ND. Too much to learn and no experience to fall back on. Meyer, Saban, Holtz & even Kelly had to move up the ladder. I hope I'm dead wrong on this one! Year three will tell it all.
