Anyone that has heard Weis speak about the University and the football program before knows how passionate he is about both, and this was further strengthened in his talk when he said "One of two things is gonna happen. Either Notre Dame's gonna get to the top, or I'm gonna die." However, any American citizen knows that this season, Notre Dame is anything but at the top. As he stated at the lecture, Weis knew that coming into the ND job, it was going to take a full cycle of recruiting in order for him to get ND to where he wanted it to be. Winning 9 and 10 games his first two years was nice, but according to Weis, the Irish aren't supposed to win 10 games one year and 6 the next; we should be on top every year. Chuck said that in order to get the program to this level, it would take 4 or 5 years (full cycle of recruiting).
The point is that Weis obviously cares about the program, and with anyone who combines the passion he has with the talent that he is recruiting, it won't be long until this program returns to its winning ways.
For those of you who weren't satisfied with that, here's a nice highlight video for you to watch:
My personal favorite line: "That might be the most SENSATIONAL, UNBELIEVABLE, play in DIVISION III!"
