Also, before you all blithely conclude "that never happens" - word is that is exactly what happened after Kelley's one losing season at ND.  And they have been largely excellent since then.

LOL; they've been so excellent since then that Brian Kelly just fired his offensive coordinator:

They still went 11-2, dude. And they are cleaning our clock in recruiting.

"Chip Long authored the two highest-scoring seasons of Brian Kelly's time at Notre Dame, along with two of the four best-gaining offenses."

The firing seems a little like grass-is-greener syndrome to me. Regardless, I have no idea how you can argue with teejers' point. ND turned it around after firing half their staff after 4-8...10-3, 12-1, 11-2. Going 11-2 with an apparently crappy (?) OC sounds WONDERFUL to me right now.
