Former Wolf Pack head coach Brian Polian will join Notre Dame as an assistant coach, according to a report by FootballScoop.com.

Polian's first big break in the business came at Norte Dame when he was hired by Charlie Weis to run the program's special teams. He also helped coach linebackers and defensive backs during his first tenure at the school, which ran from 2005-09.

After stints at Stanford and Texas A&M, Polian was hired as Nevada's head coach prior to the 2013 season.
