Swarbrick: Weis will return with team to S. Bend

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick says Charlie Weis will return with the football team after the Stanford game instead of staying on the West Coast to recruit.

Swarbrick made the comments Tuesday during a taping of his radio show for WLS Radio 890 in Chicago, which normally airs on Saturday. Weis had said Sunday he planned to stay on the West Coast recruiting, just as he had last year when he and Swarbrick met to discuss his future.

A message seeking comment was left for Swarbrick on his cell phone Tuesday evening by The Associated Press.

Swarbrick said on the show, as he has previously, that his discussion of Weis’ future would follow a similar timetable to last year.
