Notre Dame lost one of the best running backs coaches in college football when Deland McCullough took the same position with the Las Vegas Raiders a few weeks ago. But by all accounts, Marcus Freeman and the Fighting Irish are replacing McCullough with another one of the top running backs coaches in the sport.

Seider is expected to make a lateral move and join Notre Dame's football staff as their new running backs coach, according to on3Sports' Pete Nakos.
