Anyone remember Gerry Faust? Was the head coach at Moeller High in Cincinnati. He replaced Dan Devine at Notre Dame in 1981. That’s right Notre Dame hired a freakin high school coach. Imagine that today. Faust didn’t work out well going 5-6(first losing record at ND in 18 years), 6-4-1 in 1982, 7-5 in both 1983 and 84, and 5-6 in 1985. He was fired and replaced by Lou Holtz after an embarrassing 58-7 beatdown by Miami live on CBS.
