Notre Dame To Hire Cincinnati’s Brian Kelly As New Head Football Coach

kelly

Two sources close to the situation have confirmed that Cincinnati Bearcats head coach Brian Kelly will be hired as the new head football coach at Notre Dame.

Neither Notre Dame nor Cincinnati has confirmed that Kelly has accepted an offer to coach the Fighting Irish, and Kelly could not be reached for comment, but the sources tell ESPN’s Chris Mortensen that Kelly is Notre Dame’s choice to replace the fired Charlie Weis.

The 47-year-old Kelly is 34-6 in three seasons at Cincinnati, leading the Bearcats to back-to-back Big East titles and two straight Bowl Championship Series berths. The Bearcats set a school record last season for victories with an 11-3 record, then topped that with a 12-0 mark this season.
