Notre Dame Coaching Staff- February 10

Many would argue that the coaching staff is the most important element to any team sport, so when the coaches are bringing the team down there are obviously some changes that need to be made.
Notre Dame was having a hard time with their coaching staff; goals were not being met, so it was decided to make changes on some changes regarding this issue. First, Notre Dame did not reach their goals offensively so they moved Chuck Martin over from the defensive side to take over as offensive coordinator. Martin is a great teacher said Brian Kelly as he was announcing the change made with Chuck Martin’s position on the team. Kelly also stated that Martin was fitting for the position because he’s experienced and him and Kelly have a good line of communication, which is just as important as playing the game. The changes being made were all on hopes of transforming the team into a BCS football team. Scott Booker, an intern, will take over the tight end position. He has a great understanding of the offensive, and relationship with the players. Harry Hestad will also be an offensive coach for the team. Brian Kelly stated that it is crucial to have a good technique for the offensive line, which he believes Hestad also understands and agrees with. Continuity and change are also important for the coaching staff stated Kelly. He believes that having new ideas brought to the table is very important for the team.
