Back in October, with Notre Dame off to a 2-5 start to the season, the school's athletic director Jack Swarbrick gave coach Brian Kelly a vote of confidence, clearly stating Kelly would return in 2017. Now it seems as though Swarbrick could use somebody to stand up for him.
That's because a group of Notre Dame alumni took out a full page ad in Wednesday's issue of the student newspaper calling for Swarbrick's dismissal.
The ad points out both the failures on the field and off it during Swarbrick's tenure. Everything from this year's 4-8 record to the recently vacated victories, as well as arrests.
The ad describes Swarbrick's tenure as Notre Dame's athletic director as "unremarkable" and claims their level of faith in Brian Kelly is "zero. None."
The group also plans to purchase another full-page ad in an unnamed paper that will be released on Sunday.
So, you know, things are going well in South Bend.
