The Notre Dame Football Media guide was used as the definitive guide on who should be considered a Notre Dame head coach. I doubt there are more authoritative sources -- KelleyCook 18:37, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-05-31T18:37:00.000Z","author":"KelleyCook","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-KelleyCook-2007-05-31T18:37:00.000Z-Sources_for_Browse_Box","replies":["c-Trowbridge-2009-09-14T14:47:00.000Z-KelleyCook-2007-05-31T18:37:00.000Z"]}}-->

I agree with KelleyCook that only individuals identified as a head coach in an official source should be included in the NavBox. "Interim" head coaches do not hold the official title. Besides, a comprehensive list of "interim" coaches would have to include Tom Lieb, Kent Baer and George O'Leary (among others), not to mention a dozen or so student-coaches prior to 1894.
