I think the real issue that ND has to deal with in finding a new coach is to get someone who will bring some real enthusiasm to the field.  I never felt CW had that and I am not saying that as a knock on Charlie as I believe that it is just not part of his make-up.  He really tries to be like BB from New England.  Notre Dame has the players and will continue to get them so that is not an issue, we just need someone to come in and get them to do their jobs (tackling, blocking) better.  A lot of names are being thrown out there and I am not one to say this guy might be better than that guy as there are a LOT of coaches out there who are doing great things with little talent...where is Bobby Knight when we need him!  But going back to the main point is we need someone who can bring enthusiasm to not only the players but maybe to the 80,000 plus in the stands.  ND crowds are boring and make little if any noise.  Rockne stadium use to be an intimidating place but not now.  It needs to get back to that and it starts with the guy who leads them out on to the field.
