Could ND's Savior Be Gone After One Year?

The Mighty MJD brings up something we hadn't thought about: Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis, the "savior" of college football's most "sainted" program, has a very cheap buyout clause in his contract that would allow him to go to an NFL team for just $1.5 million. That team would have to offer him a head coaching job, of course, but at this point, who wouldn't?

This would, of course, be the most tragic thing to happen to Notre Dame since, well, someone accidentally let Bob Davie sign a contract. (Honestly, was one of the priests drunk on that one?) This, of course, is against the mission of Weiswatchers, which implies that the only way Weis would leave the Golden Dome would be if he died — a real possibility.

We wish he'd grow that facial hair back though, no matter what.
