  • Staying strengthens Notre Dame's program and positions him to build a historic legacy.
ADVICE

Build Teams, Not Around One Star

  • Don't collapse your program identity around one departing player; one player leaving doesn't cripple a team.
  • Build rosters for unselfish play and depth instead of relying on individual stars.
ADVICE

Accept Roster Reset After Coaching Changes

  • If you change coaches, accept that roster turnover is part of the reset and don't hamstring new leadership.
  • Prioritize building a roster tuned to the new coach's philosophy, not preserving every prior recruit.
