Faust Leaves Irish Hot Seat After Five Years
Notre Dame coach Gerry Faust resigns amid mounting criticism as Lou Holtz emerges as the likely successor. Faust’s tenure began with a 9-0 start after a 27-9 win over LSU, but a quick decline followed with losses to Michigan and Purdue, culminating in a 5-6 first season and a sudden resignation after a 10-7 defeat to LSU. Lou Holtz is set to be announced as the new head coach.
