Talk:Gerry Faust/Comments
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Faust Error is not only 20-20 hind sight, it isn't correct. The biggest problem he had at the Golden Dome was Steve Buerline who admitted, after leaving the school for a lack luster career in the NFL, that he had played hurt most of his time at Notre Dame and never told the coaches. If Faust errored it was in having to much faith in assistant coaches and several players who got chance after chance. The idea, an ESPN product mostly, that Faust is reviled at the University is a myth. He was and still is liked and respected there. Winning wasn't everything to him, trying to build character was. Remember, Holtz cut and ran under a cloud after gaining his championship-at-any-price.
