Re: The state of Notre Dame football.

The main point of my post was that Ty settled into an expected mediocrity level when huge turnover margins and defensive scoring dried up.

So Ty wasn't extended because the faithful understood that turnover margin is a sign of a luck box. Meanwhile, USC was top 5 in turnovers from 2001-2005, and generally lauded for creating turnovers.

While a lot of talk is made of 2005 (nicely shredded by DVaut), it's that 2006 year that I think folks might look hardest at and see some signs, because you really can't take away from the 2005 Irish beating USC.
Anyhow, you say that both Ty and Charlie bear some responsibility for this years squad, and to an extent you must be right. What I like to hear is an estimate of their relative responsibility in Notre Dame being 1-7 and a home dog against Navy. 50/50? 60/40?
