Having an ND alum is a heckuvalot better than competing against a guy that only coached at ND, or has zero connection to ND. An alum is alot less likely to take potshots at the school.

Besides, it is very rare that we ever end up in a recruiting battle with Pitt. Generally we’re going after different student-athletes.

Good luck to Coach Haywood. Very happy for him. But I wouldve never expected this after seeing him last year and in ’08 at ND. Would highlight that he struggled BIG TIME against out of conference competition.
