I am not sure if you are implying that other coaches would have convinced them to stay, but if you are I don't think that is the case at all.

Alt was Top-5 pick.

Fisher might have improved his draft position, but was a 2nd rounder. Career earnings potential probably higher by leaving a year early and being able to focus 100% on football.

Pundits still a bit cold on Notre Dame despite slew of upsets, [NT] [LINK] - whatsamataU - 7:57pm 10/6/24 (19) [View All]
- it's about more than wins and losses against a so/so schedule...need to look impressive, too. NIU - WestCoastIrishFan - 8:38am 10/7/24
  - Agree. But even blowouts against Army / Navy will be heavily discounted as credibily gains. [NT] - SteveM - 11:00am 10/7/24
    - Maybe not if they are undefeated ( drug residue wish) [NT] - whatsamataU - 12:38pm 10/7/24
- At this point it’s all about trajectory and demonstrated improvement [NT] - LanceManion - 8:04am 10/7/24
- If the pundits watch ND play, I don't blame them. - AlbanyIRISH - 5:20am 10/7/24
- ND viewed as a pretender. Penn St. should be too. Can't see them as #4 [NT] - SteveM - 9:30pm 10/6/24
  - There are only 3 teams that are not pretenders - BaronVonZemo - 9:42pm 10/6/24
    - I think you are ignoring Texas [NT] - D2 - 12:08pm 10/7/24
    - In an earlier era Alt and Fisher would still be here [NT] - MarkHarman - 8:16am 10/7/24

    - Thx Agree on your analysis. ND as pretender based on sparse signature win record, not roster talent. [NT] - SteveM - 9:51pm 10/6/24
      - Coaching then? Since Lou?? [NT] - whatsamataU - 12:40pm 10/7/24
      - We have a top 5 defensive team and a top 30 (not even) offensive - WoodstockIrish - 6:23am 10/7/24
        Top 30? Based on practice reports? [NT] - ndphysics - 9:58am 10/7/24
        Thinking it’s worse? I was being nice [NT] - WoodstockIrish - 4:02pm 10/9/24
- We got physically manhandled at home by a MAC team who is 3-2 - ndphysics - 8:53pm 10/6/24
- Losing to a MAC team at home will do that. [NT] - Frank L - 7:59pm 10/6/24
  - Yup. [NT] - irish93 - 8:08pm 10/6/24
    - Pundits as in Insiders / experts? Fans are wait & see also. - ELP - 8:34pm 10/6/24
