Candice the fact of the matter is that big time coaches never leave their jobs to go directly to other universities. It just doesn’t happen. Notre Dame has never hired a coach from Oklahoma, USC, Alabama, Florida St. or any other top ten program. ND’s great coaches Rockne, Leahy, Parseghian, Devine, Holtz all came from smaller schools or the pros. Meyer, Stoops, Carrol were all unproven coaches from smaller schools when they were hired for their current jobs. Saban was big time, but he went to the pros and didn’t succeed and Alabama lured him back to college. I wouldn’t judge ND by the whether or not NC winning coaches will come to South Bend. Kelly fits the ND model perfectly and he will return ND to the top.

Candice, ND hasnt had the success recently, it’s true. not compared to our rich history of winning non-stop. but one coach jumped at the chance – Brian Kelly. and he was the only one our AD talked to. So a 100% batting average ain’t bad. team’s dont all have ‘their fair share’. name an ND arrest this past year. go ‘head, do it. can’t? i can name 25 at UF in the past 3 years. that’s just under 1 per game. thats despicable. Jack, harbaugh was never on our radar, never under consideration, and had we hired him i’d have immediately vomited. he’s not ND material. never was, never will be. KU? yep.

I don’t think Notre Dame has the prestige it once had. It seems that no coach is jumping at the chance. Maybe I am wrong but, as I came into adulthood in the 90’s the Irish was still on top of the world. Not so much now. I think you will be very lucky to get Brian Kelly. I would fall out of my chair if someone said Meyer was interested or entertaining the idea at this point. And, for the record all programs have discipline issues. Maybe Florida has had more than it’s share. But, I personally am pleased with Meyers ability to give these kids a second chance.

Boys, just a thought but I would be giving Jim Harbaugh some serious thought. He is a good man,runs a clean program and I guarantee he and his team are going to give ND ALL you can handle.
Anouther thought if ND wants to be able to run with the big boys [anytime soon]Jim Harbaugh might be a good fit at ND.

PS Has anyone got a hold of the ass that punched Jimmy Clausen yet?

Ronnie Wilson’s actions were indefensible, and allowing him back on the team was more so. I’m more than willing to admit that, and more than likely Urbs is too.

Hey I just wanted to say that Jimmy Clausen being punched is a crock of shit. Being a Gator I understand the PRESSURE of being a QB of a school of this magnitude, and the fact that he was punched in front of his mother is NOT COOL. I hate you fuckers but I also know that being your QB aint no walk in the park. Dont take no shit from these fuckers. Find them and prosecute them to the fullest. Take ‘em out HARD. Good luck next season. YOU WILL NEED IT!!! Love Jack

RammerJammer, sadly, I agree with most of what you said. I don’t have great confidence in our ‘old fogies in bowties’ (read: Priests) to do this very well. I disagree with the first part though – we’re saying this because we really believe it – not just so we can say ‘we didnt want you anyway’. Otherwise I doubt we’d still be defending the position (and this is not a position that all ND fans have btw, it’s just ours)
