5. Charlie Weis
Winning Percentage: .565
National Titles: 0
Bowl Games: 3
Weis’ career at Notre Dame began extremely well. In his first year, Weis lead the Irish to a 9-3 record and a birth in the Fiesta Bowl. That year, his biggest victory was a loss. Notre Dame fell late to the undefeated USC Trojans, 34-31. The next year, Notre Dame garnered a great deal of National Title conversation. But, after a loss to Michigan early in the season, those hopes were dashed. But, the Irish still landed in a BCS game. In his third season, Notre Dame fell completely off the wagon. Weis lead the Irish to the worst season in its history, 3-9. Weis slightly recovered in 2008 and 2009 with 7-6 and 6-6 records respectively. Weis’ best asset as a Head Coach was his recruiting ability. Weis landed Michael Floyd, Manti Te’o and others. The core of the 2012 football team was made up of Weis recruits.
