Will not happen....

Coach wouldn't leave to be a hypocrite!

That would be awful in so many ways, especially right after NSD. Would not be good.

Nnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

This will continue to be an issue until Notre Dame is willing to pay coaches market value.

I don't think pay would come into play here. He's essentially topped out as RB coach here under Kelly, it appears. He's also gotten recruiting coordinator, which he'd probably get elsewhere, but I could see him taking a lateral move if it appears it would also help him get a promotion. Plus, it's just rare for guys to stay any one place for a long time. He's been here 6 years? Plus, Urban has come for him once before, and for his career, it would certainly help him to get another major coach like Urban Meyer in his corner and build those relationships.

 

It would suck, and hurt to see him go. But, I'm kind of expecting him to take that job this time.

I'm not.......

I'm not.......

 

This would put a stake in the heart of our recruiting if it happens.

Start praying guys that he stays!

My first thought is: is he not happy coaching under CBK? I wonder if he isn't happy with the lack of run game? I hope he doesn't leave. He seems to be the one steady thing ND has right now.

If he leaves ND for a lateral move to the OSU RB position, it will be very telling. He had his name in contention for the CSU head coaching job. I would begin to wonder what kind of continuity BK has with his staff. Considering the number of assistants that have left and potentially the best recruiter we have left going to OSU, color me concerned.

Yeah, we do not need this to happen. Oh, and by the way, muck Feyer!

He's not leaving unless Urban offers him a substantial promotion over what he currently has. Even then, if Notre Dame countered with similar, he'd stay. This will not come down to money; it will come down to potential advancement.

Wow. This would be pretty bad. I wish ND would pay these guys more

I saw this on B/R and pretty much ruined my night...

 

First Warriner, now Alford... WTF

 

Please don't be true..

Looks like all our assistants would rather coach with Meyer, can't blame him but that would hurt recruiting.
