    Dam he was a great coach. Back then the ND/USC game was the game of the year. I remember the 73 game when SC came back from 21 down and beat them 55 to 24.

    This line stood out to me from Pat Forde's piece on Parseghian:

    "Parseghian wasn’t lavishly paid at Notre Dame – at the time, he was contractually prevented from making more than the school’s highest-paid faculty member." I can't imagine an administrator trying to get that clause in a contract these days.

    True that... I remember Coach Bryant made $99,999.99/year because he didn't "think it was right for a football coach to make more than the University President"... Of course his money was no good, anyway....

    Of course... he was still likely underpaid was my point, though... much like MDL is...

    Coach Ara also had commercial contracts with automobile companies and other advertising avenues.
