My surmise is that McCullough took a look at
Brian Daboll's future (realizing that Daboll is no Andy Reid)
the cluster fumble that is the Giants
Gettleman left a trail like a slug, and an inadequate quarterback in Daniel Jones
a former #1 pick at RB who has injury issues
and his three kids at IU

and said, more or less. Nah, not me, not today, not this mess in Secaucus

He has the rep. He coached for Reid (and by the way the Chiefs have demonstrated the "Ekeler syndrome, that is you can make do with backs NOT drafted in the first round.)

So he has the rep.
He has the past.
He has the future.
\\
Right now at ND, but I'd guess not for life.

His position may shift as his sons, one by one, graduate from IU and then move on.

There will be no one by one. Junior will be the only one that becomes a Hoosier alum.

He came back to college to position himself to be a head coach and believes success at ND will do that.
A win for the bed wetters that he's staying, but this ominous cloud hangs heavy over the basement of mothers all across the ND fanbase.

Denson got an HC job and Taylor got an OC job.

If DMC wants to be a head coach, this is the way. Alas, it means he'll have to leave and be replaced, guys.
