To Jack Swarbrick:

Notre Dame was just completely dismantled by USC. Did you watch this? 

Sir, its over. You know what you have to do.

We hoped that, somehow, we would at least be competitive, that we would see some glimmer of hope that this program would turn around under the current regime. It is painfully apparent that the time for change has come. 

You know what you have to do. Do it.
