According to a report from the South Bend Tribune, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish have a new coach.
And his name is -- surprise!!! -- Brian Kelly.
Citing two university sources familiar with the search process, the paper reports that Kelly will be named as Charlie Weis’ successor in South Bend.
It’s expected that Kelly will meet with his players ahead of the Bearcats’ award banquet tonight to inform them of his decision.
No further details, such as when the official announcement will come or when a press conference will be held, are available at this time.
