You may be right by pmcdnd96

But I haven't been all that impressed with Smart's game plans/performances in a number of games I've seen him coach.

If he came to ND, I doubt he would bring in the same level of talent he has landed at Georgia; this opinion may well be incorrect, as there are a number of advantages to recruiting at ND when the coach actually works at it, but that is the feeling I get.

I see his model as similar to Pete Carroll's - bring in great players and build a program that gets them to compete like crazy. When done well, it can produce outstanding results. But don't forget that Pete Carroll lost a national championship at thw end of 2005 with 10 all Americans because he couldn't figure out a way to slow down Vince Young and he later threw away a Super Bowl with one of the dumbest play calls of all time.
