It may still take a few days to announce as Notre Dame loves to get all of its vetting out of the way (thanks O’Leary) before it goes public, but there are plenty of reports out there that state that Mike Elko will be leaving the Wake Forest Demon Deacons as its defensive coordinator to take on the same role for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Why did Notre Dame eventually hire Mike Elko after firing Brian VanGorder back in September? I’m not going to get overly complicated here, so prepare yourself for some brevity in the answer.
