Kuharich remains the only coach in ND history to compile an overall losing record. In a strange twist, he is also the only the only ND coach to post back-to-back shutouts over USC in 1960 (17-0) and 1961 (30-0). It was generally felt that Kuharich never made the adjustment from pro football to college football. He would often say, "You win some and you lose some." That was not what Irish fans wanted to hear.
Yep. Even though it's black and white footage, the film shows a pretty good variety of Kuharich's uniforms (blue, green, white with green stripes). Most of the helmets have the weird radiation shamrocks, but the practice footage, such as at 3:25 on, shows the traditional looking shamrock used for the next three seasons.

Yeah as a Notre Dame football coach you are expected to win most
