Champions again? Maybe I missed the part where they were champions in the first place. Maybe she's talking about their football team, I don't know. Supposedly, they were pitching her at the Fiesta Bowl.

I mean, doesn’t notre dame have more spending power than nearly every single college out there? Pretty much. The only P5 schools with larger endowments than Notre Dame are Stanford and Texas A&M. And before anyone brings it up, yes I'm aware that there are restrictions on endowments, but it still speaks to just how wealthy of a university Notre Dame is. Texas has the second largest endowment in the country, only behind Harvard fyi...

Also, very smart move for Rockwell. Why try and follow in the footsteps of the great Russ Rose when you can forge your own legacy? The likely result was that she was not going to be able to match his great mess, probably not even come close. So rather than always living in the shadow of Russ Rose’s accomplishments, she gets to have a clean slate. It’s going to be much easier to recruit to Notre Dame. Considering where ND is right now, Salima has tremendous opportunity for upside and very little risk of disappointment in the short term. That's not true of PSU. If money was even comparable, this is the much smarter move.

The bar will be so much easier to set and achieve at ND than PSU. Still, I'm surprised she's jumping back in the arena.
This is a major blow to Penn State. I never thought Russ would step down for anyone less.

Those transfers from ND in the portal must be punching the air right now.

No wonder Salima was almost giddy when prodded in the VolleyballMag video about Russ retiring. She must have known there was a bidding war going on for her services.
