By STEVE MEGARGEE Assistant Sports Editor Early in the season, Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz was dis­ cussing the future of the Irish football program and stated, “We can’t be a dynasty.” Less than a month after add­ ing an eighth national title to Notre Dame’s storied football history, Holtz is hearing several people speak out against his theory. Oddsmaker Danny Sheridan, who predicted Notre Dame would falter throughout its championship season, said after the Fiesta Bowl that the Irish, Miami and Florida State would be in a class by them­ selves in the 1989 season. Beano Cook, while saying the Irish would falter at least once in games at Michigan, Penn State and Miami next season, already tabs Notre Dame as the 1990 national champion.

A look at Notre Dame’s roster shows why Notre Dame’s future looks so promis­ ing. The Irish return nine starters on offense and eight on defense next season. Tackle Andy Heck and tailback Mark Green are the only players leaving on offense, while the The Observer / Michael Moran defense loses defensive end Raghib “Rocket” Ismail splits the West Virginia defense after freshman speedster Ismail glides In for the score that stakes Frank Stams, linebacker Wes receiving a perfectly thrown pass from Tony Rice.
