They are not a blue blood program any more.
You can say that ND isn't the powerhouse they once were but they'll always be a blue blood. That's not something that goes away. Current status rises and falls but being a blue blood is a permanent state.

Hell if that’s the case then Yale, Princeton and Harvard are blue bloods.

Not true. In fact, according to the OED, any team that hasn't won a national title since 1999 no longer qualifies as a blueblood. They had a long explanation about it, which I don't remember very well, but it was indisputable and convincing. The OED guys know their stuff.
