Weis lands massive Notre Dame deal in bold move
Notre Dame locks in Charlie Weis through 2015 with a reported 30 to 40 million dollar package. The move comes after a rapid rise from relative obscurity to head coach as Spurrier and Meyer exited running shoes at Florida and South Carolina. Weis vows loyalty and focus on family while the Irish chase a BCS bowl, with a 14 million payout if at large this year and 4.5 million next year under a new pact.
