Here’s a very small indication of just how hectic things are in the NFL at the end of the regular season. Late last week, the news broke that Indianapolis Colts defensive line coach Charlie Partridge was leaving for a similar job at Notre Dame. The item was reported in the local press, but perhaps since Partridge was not even leaving the state of Indiana, it didn’t cause much of a stir.
Nothing unusual so far. It is a little bit odd that a veteran like Partridge would leave the NFL for a parallel position in college, but hey, it’s Notre Dame.
