Irish AD To Make Quick Decision

SOUTH BEND, Ind. - Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick plans to make a decision on the future of coach Charlie Weis within days of the season's end.
Swarbrick said Thursday that last season's decision, when he met with Weis three days after the season ended and told him he would be back, would be "fairly representative of the timing" of what he does this year.
The regular-season finale against Stanford is Nov. 28 and Notre Dame (6-4) is hoping for a good bowl bid. Swarbrick said his primary concern is student athletes.
Swarbrick said he will take into account more than Weis' 35-25 record, which is the same winning percentage as his two predecessors. He pointed out that NCAA graduation numbers released Wednesday show Weis is going a good job.
