Notre Dame Athletic Director Dick Rosenthal says the university won’t be stampeded into choosing a coach to replace Digger Phelps, who retired last week.

Prime Ticket had cited unidentified sources in reporting that Notre Dame would hold a news conference Thursday to name Georgia Tech Coach Bobby Cremins as Phelps’ replacement but none was held. Cremins was reportedly in Columbia, S.C., for his induction into the state’s athletic hall of fame.
