Weis to stay on at ND
It's Official! Charlie Weis will be returning to Notre Dame for the 2009 season.
From ESPN
Charlie Weis will return for a fifth year as Notre Dame's football coach despite posting his second straight disappointing season.
Weis has seven years left on a 10-year contract signed midway through his first season.
Athletic director Jack Swarbrick said following Notre Dame's 38-3 loss to USC on Saturday that he would evaluate Weis' performance. Both men were out of town Wednesday.
"Though this past season fell short of the expectations that all of us have for our football program, I am confident that Charlie has a strong foundation in place for future success and that the best course of action is to move forward under his leadership," Swarbrick said Wednesday in a statement released by the university.
"He, I and the others involved in leading our football program are committed to doing everything necessary to ensure a successful 2009 season. We are examining every aspect of the program and will make changes wherever we think they are needed."
Good for him and good for ND. Frankly, I am ambivalent. If this is what they want that is fine with me...
Should be fun to watch next season.
