As the Irish attempted to prepare for the game this Saturday against Rutgers -- or ''Ruptures'' as players and coaches heard Holtz say in a meeting earlier in the week -- many futures remained unclear. Davie would not respond to a report in The Lafayette Journal and Courier that he had been interviewed for the vacancy at Purdue, and did not want to discuss the possibility of succeeding Holtz.

Wadsworth said that one potential candidate had declined to become involved in discussions with Notre Dame because of family considerations. A source familiar with the selection process identified that person as Terry Donahue, the former U. Holtz, whose record leaves him six victories behind Knute Rockne's school record of , told his superiors of his final decision on Monday afternoon, and later was surprised by the emotional response of his players.

His players included underclassmen who had been promised during the recruiting process that Holtz intended to continue as coach throughout their college careers. Some of those players had insisted in recent days that they had been told speculation about Holtz's departure had no basis. On Monday they discovered the truth.

Dodd: ND has issues out of court. Forum: Does Moore have a case against Notre Dame?

When Holtz transitioned to Rick Mirer in , the running game was still emphasized, even if Mirer was less of a running threat.

Obviously, some of those attempts have sacks included, but the 17 rushing touchdowns are notable, and Mirer ran for a career-high nine in In his three full seasons as the starter, Mirer finished In his one season as a starter, Kevin McDougal ran just 55 times for 85 yards but contributed four touchdowns, and the option was still in his arsenal, as evidenced by his yard touchdown run at Michigan in He famously finished as a starter.

With the addition of Ron Powlus to the starting lineup in , the threat of the run at quarterback vanished for the duration of the Holtz tenure. Powlus finished his Notre Dame career with attempts for yards and three rushing touchdowns. Obviously, the majority of those attempts came on sacks, and the only season he finished with positive rushing yards was , when he registered 53 attempts for 8 yards and no touchdowns. Unfortunately, this transition to a passing quarterback coincided with a drop in receiver recruiting.

Speedy Michael Miller was kicked off the football team mid-season in after being indicted in Texas, which left the Irish with Charles Stafford and Emmett Mosely as the other receiving threats on the team. In , Mayes again dominated at receiver, catching 48 passes, with second-leading receiver Emmett Mosley totaling 17 receptions for yards and a score. What crippled the Notre Dame passing game was the loss of signee Randy Moss to the team after he was denied admission into the University.
