"How different do you think things would have been if that group followed you to Baton Rouge?"

“Oh, I think it means a lot. I think you know again, and going back to Matt’s question, in terms of looking at the things that may have made this process slower than they wanted it to be, was coordinator hires, and I needed to do a better job there,” Kelly said on The Independent: A Notre Dame Football Podcast.

“I had to make a change after Year in defense. That’s never a great thing after Year 2 to make a change on defense, and I think the world of Matt House, (he) is a great man, and he’s a smart football coach, but it didn’t work."

“And then you know Joe Sloan was handed a tough you know obviously situation, and he was inexperienced in some areas, and he was outstanding in others. But I think, as I look at it, those two that you mentioned, if they were able to make the move, it would have been an easier transition, no doubt.”
