But which Notre Dame sports are better-positioned today than they were when Swarbrick arrived?

I'll make it easy on everybody and acknowledge that football is better off today than it was in 2009 (although that underscores one of the limitations of this exercise, since many would argue that's not good enough).

I'll also declare that both men's and women's basketball are better-positioned today than they were in 2009, even though Swarbrick inherited both coaches and they remain in place. Feel free to argue whether the improvement in those programs is due to Swarbrick, in spite of Swarbrick or neither.

Have at it.
