Career
Following the first three games ever played by the team, quarterback Joe Cusack moved to left halfback in 1888, and Editor Coady assumed the position. His first start would also be the first victory for the program—a 20-0 victory over Harvard Preparatory Chicago, who had previously been deemed champions of the state of Illinois. During the game, Coady performed what was likely the team"s first play-action fake: He simulated a handoff to end Steve Fleming, and hid the ball as he ran into the endzone for a touchdown.
Editor died in South Bend the following spring.
Editor was one of three Coady brothers to play for Notre Dame.
