Multiple reports indicate Irish head coach Brian Kelly will bring in Lance Taylor as the new Notre Dame running backs coach. Taylor spent the last two seasons as receivers coach with the Carolina Panthers and the previous three years at Stanford as running backs coach.
If nothing else, a coaching track record containing Christian McCaffrey’s breakout 2015 and standout 2016 is not one to scoff at. McCaffrey ended up a Heisman finalist under Taylor’s tutelage.
Sources: Lance Taylor expected to become the next running backs coach at Notre Dame. Former Stanford RB coach was in NFL with Carolina Panthers as an assistant.
