Three years on, Brian Kelly is happy with Notre Dame’s progress

Superstition that Fighting Irish coaches have three years to win a title

“They have good players, but a lot of people have good players. The way they play and the way they compete and the relentless sort of competitive attitude they have, I think that's what I admire most and think is the most difficult to get instilled in a group of young men.”

Notre Dame is no doubt prepared to head for a national title, but it all comes down to game day on January 7th.

"I've got a clear idea of what we wanted to accomplish at Notre Dame,” Kelly said. “We had a blueprint of what we felt was going to be successful for Notre Dame. We just went about it and went to work, and this is a culmination of three years of doing that job and sticking to the plan that we had from day one."
