According to online betting site NDs next coach...

Thats crazy... after Tuesday, I will not doubt Vegas again on anything! Before the election started Trump was a huge underdog floating around +420...... by 7 central he was a -700 favorite.... even before he won any states he wasn't supposed to...... Before Florida was announced he was a landslide favorite around -1500.
 
Hope not. He had great talent and underachieved. Been there, done that. On top of that, he had to have been the luckiest coach in the world cuz he made numerous dumbass moves over the years and most of them worked out for him when the decision to do whatever he did was stupid. Plus he hates ND and is a Michigan man through & through. I don't want any part of him coaching ND.
 
ND can do better. LSU is paying him millions of dollars not to coach, that should tell you something.

yup, it's highly highly unlikely that Swarbrick is making a change at year-end even with a 4-8 or 5-7 record. You can bet on it that Kelly will "lead the team out of the tunnel in 2017."

I have a hard time believing that we would hire a guy in his 60s as our next coach.

Have to agree - as shitty as this year has been, and even if ND finishes 3-9, it will be Kelly in 2017.
 
Guys, I'm just passing along semi-interesting information since nothing interesting is happening on the field this year. ;)
 
I want to know who our DC will be in 2017? We need a home run hire and not a bench cheerleader. He will probably stick with Hudson or maybe Elston as DC. He's already said there wouldn't be any major changes to the coaching staffo_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_O:(:(:(:eek::eek::confused:. Did you hear that Uncle Jack?

Jack simply ain't listening (and has absolutely no intention to do so).

Miles would be a huge upgrade. If Kelly is coaching in 2017 I wont be watching. I would reconsider watching if all the message board comments were posted live during the game on the new Jumbotron.. that would be worth watching!

What was Hillary Clinton's odds on being the next president prior to election day. All of this may be fun speculation, but I don't believe Les will ever be the head coach of ND. Nothing personal against Les but why would ND want LSU's reject?
 
Just pay a real defensive coordinator with a name reconition and pedigree of working at top college programs and start at 1 million dollars because that is what all the top 10-15 assistants make today. Not counting private institutions.
 
No decent DC will come to ND with Kelly as HC for a one and done deal.
I think just the opposite. ND's defense has sucked so much the past three seasons that anyone who comes in and turns this around will look like a defensive genius. Seems like a great opportunity for some up and coming DC to perform on a big stage with a high likelihood of success. Coordinators jump from school to school as they build their resume, and even a successful one and done deal would still provide a huge career boost, with the outside chance he saves Kelly's ass and gets to be a hero for a couple of years.

No one coaching with Kelly will be a success next season. Fire Kelly and bring in Schiano as HC and ND will have a winning defense.
