Assistant Coaches Officially In Place
Notre Dame, Ind (UHND) — The Notre Dame coaching staff is now officially
in place. Most are the same names that I mentioned the other day with the exception of Bernie Parmalee being named tight ends coach while Rich Basaccia will not be joining the coaching staff. It was thought he would be the special teams coach. Brian Polian will serve that role however as well as assistant defensive backs coach.
Overall the staff is rounded out with proven coaches and excellent recruiters. Here is a list of the coaches with links to their profiles from their previous coaching positions. UHND will be creating our own profiles this week now that the staff is place. Check back later this week as they are added.
