Our friends over at Bleacher Report (h/t Justin Ferguson) recently did a list of top coaching coordinator duo’s in college football. I was actually surprised to find the duo of Notre Dame’s Brian VanGorder and Mike Sanford on the list. Not on the basis I don’t think they can be, but on the fact that VanGorder is coming off of a rough (but injury plagued) defensive 2014, while Sanford will be in his first with the Irish. So will these two affirm their place on the list this season?
Following the shake-up of coaches this offseason, Sanford came into Notre Dame, while it was a question if VanGorder would be staying.
