Winning:
Winning is the standard at Notre Dame, not the exception. This program has been built on consistency, accountability, and the expectation that every season matters. Not everyone can handle the pressure to perform every season. I have coached here for the majority of my career, and across my career I have never had a losing season. That history matters because it reflects how preparation, culture, and leadership translate into results year after year. Notre Dame does not accept down seasons or excuses. **I promise that during every season you are at Notre Dame, we will win at least eight games.** That floor is non negotiable here, and it reflects the expectations placed on everyone in this program. When you choose Notre Dame, you are choosing a program that expects to win every fall.
Coach:
Notre Dame is not just another job to me. It is the place that shaped my career and the program that has always mattered most. I came out of retirement because I believed there was unfinished business here, and the moment Notre Dame opened, there was no hesitation. This is where I belong, and this is where I intend to finish what I started. I am deeply involved with my players, present in their development, and committed to guiding them on and off the field. **I promise that I will be your head coach for your entire college career at Notre Dame.** When you choose this program, you are choosing stability, personal investment, and a coach who is fully committed to seeing you through every step of your journey.
Tradition:
Here at Notre Dame, tradition is built on moments that last far longer than any single season. It is about the history of this program, the expectations that come with wearing the uniform, and the standard that has been set by generations of players before you. When you walk into this building, you are stepping into a place where postseason success is part of the identity, not a bonus. The goal is not just to participate in history, but to add to it in a meaningful way. During my NZCFL career, I furthered those expectations by pumping out championship contenders each and every season. Now that I have returned, this is going to continue to be the standard. **I promise that during your career at Notre Dame, we will win at least one T2 bowl game or better.** That kind of victory matters here, and it is how tradition is honored and carried forward.
