And if you look at our offense's numbers, it supports that case (btw, he never called himself a genius, nor did we - a reporter did, and it stuck). Defensive? Not so much. That's what happened.

Now coach Faust is a poster boy for ND fandom. Faust took a program that was running well and broke it down. Charlie took a program that was in shambles and at least raised the talent level. I look forward to the day when Charlie can again be happy being a part of the ND family. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when Gerry Faust left. Now coach Faust is a poster boy for ND fandom.

Personally I've never been a fan; the lack of respect when discussing the college game turned me off. I do respect the good that he has done and I won't deny he's worked some magic with that offense. For me I'll be interested to see what sort of climate and stigma surrounds the ND job. It will be interesting to see what some of the prospective targets think about the position. FYI, anyone complaining about Meyer's track record ought to check out Stoops' as well. He's had his own share of problems. I think the writing is on the wall for Charlie.

Otherwise, I don't see that it's any bigger than the VPI game last year. Cincinnati’s prospective BCS game is only the biggest of Kelly’s career if it’s the championship game.

That rumor is a joke. Kelly said nothing wrong. And it was in like week 3 of his tenure as HC there anyway. Mark, I agree. That rumor is a joke. Kelly said nothing wrong.

Kelly said nothing wrong, it was totally and completely spun by the media to be a racially charged comment, when in reality it had NOTHING to do with race. If anything it was more of a class issue. Also, running a D-II or D-III program is ten times harder (NCAA regulations wise) than running a D-1 program. There are about 10,000 more rules for lower divisions for everything from scholarships to practice time to academic requirements. If you look at any good lower level program there is always pushing the NCAA boundries. If it were up to the presidents of D-II and D-III schools, football would be a one hour practice every day in season only and games on Saturday. No scholarships would be awarded and everyone would get straight A's. The whole “racially insensitive comments” subject really needs to be brought into the open.

If he were preparing for a national championship he doesn't even consider it. However, I think it is going to motivate him when he realizes his team will never be able to play for a national championship. BTW, I was at CJ's on Saturday after the game. Unfortunately I left before Jimmy et al arrived. I wish I could have seen that guy punch him, I would have fucked his life up.

NDNation's groupthink is "advising" you not to tout Kelly. Son, you are deviating from the party line. NDNation’s groupthink is “advising” you not to tout Kelly.
