#NotreDame coach Mike Brey was approached by Illinois coach Brad Underwood just before Monday's game. I see you're losing your football coach, Underwood said. What the #$%& are you talking about Brey said. And that's how the Brian Kelly news traveled in Champaign.

Crushing. Lou was THE source for Notre Dame football knowledge. As kind and caring a person as you’ll find in this business. 💔

We are heartbroken to report that Lou Somogyi passed away yesterday morning at the age of 58. He posted an article just before 9:00 a.m. and went to play tennis. He died of an apparent heart attack after finishing up.
