Notre Dame’s coaching staff took a hit on Monday when Boston College hired Irish TE coach John McNulty their next offensive coordinator, but they ended the night adding another outstanding assistant to their staff. According to reports, Deland McCullough will replace Lance Taylor as the running backs coach for the Irish.
A vacancy opened on Notre Dame’s staff at running back when Louisville tabbed Taylor as their offensive coordinator – the first of now two Irish assistants from a year ago who have become offensive coordinators for Power 5 programs. Marcus Freeman and Notre Dame have replaced Taylor with another running backs coach on the rise.
