Crist’s Advice for Late Round Picks: “Enjoy Every Second”

April 6, 2016 by andrewwinn

Dayne Crist's dream since childhood was to play in the NFL, so the former Notre Dame quarterback wrestled with balancing reality with ambition during the lead-up to the 2013 draft. "I was a late-round projection at best," Crist said Tuesday from his Los Angeles office. "You kind of cynically play the game like, 'Oh, you know. It's not going to happen. It's not going to happen,' to not get your hopes up. But at the same time, I mean, you're really hoping your name gets called, and that's ...

Brandon Wimbush As Starter: A Hypothetical

March 18, 2016 by andrewwinn

"If you dropped a red shirt freshman Brandon Wimbush into ND's QB competitions of  2010, 2011 and 2012, would he win all three?" Irish Illustrated's Pete Sampson offered this hypothetical Tuesday on Twitter. Sampson added Wednesday that he believed Wimbush would have prevailed each year, underscoring his point that this is the best depth in the Brian Kelly era. Kelly indicated Tuesday that Wimbush would be given an opportunity to compete for the starting spot, backing off comments he made ...

Can Kelly Coach Quarterbacks?

March 7, 2016 by Bayou Irish

In today's piece, I respond to a comment made by loyal reader Irishize that called into question Brian Kelly's ability to coach the quarterback position. In six seasons since Brian Kelly came to South Bend, the Irish have played in, and lost, one national championship game and one major bowl game. They've won fifty-five games and lost twenty-three. But what does this mean for Kelly's success with the quarterbacks? To answer the question of whether or not Brian Kelly can coach quarterbacks, I ...

Top Fifteen Plays of the Kelly Years

February 29, 2016 by Bayou Irish

Last week, we gave you the Top Five Games of the Brian Kelly Years. Last night, you watched The Oscars. This morning, for your consideration and viewing pleasure, we present the Top Fifteen Plays of the Brian Kelly Years. @SupermanTDJesus helped with this project. I am grateful for his technical abilities and efficiency. Let's face it, though. There have been a lot of plays in five seasons of football. And, if we're being honest, a lot of booze chased away the memory of the bad ones. ...

Chop to the Heart, Golson Transfers to Florida State

May 19, 2015 by Ryan Ritter

It seems like only yesterday that Everett Golson held the most popular position on the Notre Dame football team: backup quarterback. 2011 marked a season in which fans clamored for the rise of Golson. A struggling and turnover-prone Tommy Rees did what he could after taking over for Dayne Crist; however, the good will created by his 4-0 run to end the 2010 season, including the first victory over Southern Cal in ages, gave way to the desire to see the freshman standing on the sideline full of ...

October 19, 2012 by Ryan Ritter

I'm convinced that being a Notre Dame football fan might just be one of the strangest existences in sports today. Despite the fact that the Irish are 6-0, it is as if we as fans still have something to prove. ...

Brandon Newman, Some Things Are Just Better Left Unsaid

July 25, 2012 by Ryan Ritter

Former Notre Dame and current Ball State defensive linemen, Brandon Newman, did an interview with the Fort Wayne based News-Sentinel. In it, he gave his perspective on the Notre Dame battle at quarterback. While it is always great and refreshing to get an inside perspective, Newman went a bit too far and made some comments he shouldn't have. First, he starts off with a conversation that former Irish and current Kansas QB, Dayne Crist, had with Tommy Rees: “Dayne was telling Tommy that even ...
