was Brian Kelly.

Someone else might have had the title, but it was his scheme, he held veto power, and he would shove his nose in and offer input whenever the fuck he wanted. Now, I'm sure that Denbrock was very involved and perhaps even running much of it, but there were no tweaks or adjustments that SRFSIM didn't approve of first before they were implemented. Oh, and I'm sure that Kelly was the driving force behind the 2016 fuck up, no question.

I didn't like the Denbrock hire at Notre Dame because he reminds me of the Kelly and Willingham regimes. Hard stop. I don't want to be reminded of those two regimes. I would have preferred a fresh face; unlike other guys, I think that you can run good running schemes from gun and/or pistol. I'm not married to under center/21 or 12 personnel groupings or whatever. There are a variety of ways to skin a cat.
