BTP: Last season did not go well for Notre Dame, and safe to say Brian Kelly was on a blisteringly hot seat. What in your mind is the biggest reason for why the Irish have been able to turn it around and be one of the best teams in college football so far in 2017?

PS: It all comes down to Brian Kelly's approach to managing the Notre Dame football program. In the past, he's been super-involved with calling offensive plays, inserting himself into defensive strategy, etc., and this off-season he took a step back and overhauled everything, from coaches to culture to how he interacts with the team.
