Brian Kelly came to Notre Dame from Cincinnati in 2010 and has had a myriad of success with the Fighting Irish since his arrival. He led the team to the BCS National Championship Game in 2012 and a bowl appearance in every season.
It doesn’t look like he is going anywhere anytime soon as the team just announced that they have given a contract extension. Kelly had previously been signed through the 2017 season, but his new contract is good through the 2021 season.

Kelly has a 55-23 record in six seasons with the Fighting Irish and an impressive 226-80-2 overall record in a career that goes back to 1991 as a head coach.
The Fighting Irish competed at the top of the ranking all season long and they are poised to make another run for a national championship in 2016.
