Learning a lot I didn’t know. Wow what a coach driven to greatness at such a cost. Recommend to all Irish fans who want to know its history.

under Frank. But Frank's character and goodness were also instilled in him. We were not always the best team in the conference but we were the best coached and in the best condition of any! I love the guy!
