Notre Dame assistant Gene Cross has reached a deal in principle to take over at Toledo, sources told CBSSports.com on Thursday night.
A formal announcement could come as early as Friday.
An Illinois graduate, Cross has long been considered one of the premier assistants in the country, having worked at Illinois-Chicago, DePaul and Virginia before joining Mike Brey at Notre Dame.
Cross will inherit a team that went 11-19 this past season, 7-8 in the Mid-American Conference.
