Better roster? according to who? Again, first time it was all because of the players and the second time it was all coaching? Tell us, did Notre Dame not recruit your daughter or does she play there and you believe that she is so incredible that if they do not win it must be the coaches fault.


If your touted as having the top recruiting class (or one of them) in the country every year then it must be coaching not holding up their end of the bargain


Recruiting is a big part of coaching. If they are getting good players then they are doing something right. I would say they are doing a better job the 90% of the coaches.

The University of Notre Dame sells itself. Coach doesn't have to sell it. Recruiting players to go there is easy. Ybe8f4

Wrong. The coach absolutely has to sell The University of Notre Dame. Take a look at the current Top 20 Women's DI Teams. A lot of players choose to go to schools other the ND. Notre Dame does not get every player that they want. In addition to many of the Top 20 schools there are several other schools that many players would choose over ND. Many factors enter the picture when selecting a college and program.
