Brian Kelly, a veteran of
21 seasons as a collegiate
head coach heads into
his third season as the 29th
head football coach at the
University of Notre Dame.
Currently the fifth-winningest active coach in
the NCAA Football Bowl
Subdivision, Kelly has guided
Notre Dame to 16 wins over
the last two seasons. His 110
victories as a head coach since
2001 are more than all but two
active FBS head coaches
Oklahomas Bob Stoops and
Mack Brown of Texas.When Kelly was hired
at Notre Dame he said
two things he needed to
accomplish early in his tenure
were shoring up the defense
and getting the players to
be mentally and physically
stronger so they could
compete for all four quarters
of all 12 games. Through hisfirst two seasons, Kellys
defense was one of 13 units
in the FBS that allowed fewer
than 21 points per game in
both seasons. It was the
first time an Irish defense
accomplished that feat in
a decade.
The Irish were led on
offense by wide receiverMichael Floyds school-record
100 receptions and the
running back duo of Cierre
Wood and Jonas Gray that
combined for 1,893 yards and
21 touchdowns. Defensively,
Notre Dame held 12 of 13
teams below their season
scoring average and held 11 of
13 schools below their seasonrushing average.
Kellys first Irish squad in
2010 came on strong to play
perfectly in November. The
Irish success down the stretch
came mainly because of
its defense, as Notre Dame
went 13 consecutive periods
over one late, four-game
stretch without allowing anoffensive touchdown (the best
sequence in that category in
30 years).

Bronko Nagurski was a consensus All-America Defensive Tackle in 1929,
and also made All-America Teams that year as a fullback, the only player
ever picked at two positions.
Bronko went on to an outstanding career with the Chicago Bears (1930-1937, 43). He led the Bears to three NFL Championships. His name became
synonymous with the raw, brute force of football. Even today, people can point
to the brick wall he cracked when he ran into it carrying the ball for the Bears
one afternoon at Wrigley Field.
Created in 1993 by the Football Writers Association of America, the
Bronko Nagurski Trophy is awarded to the best defensive player in college
football and is presented by the Charlotte Touchdown Club.
The Awards Banquet not only recognizes the best college defensive
player, but also helps to raise money to recognize the recipients of regional
high school and college scholarships. All proceeds benefit the CharlotteTouchdown Club Scholarship Fund.
