bk replacement

[ndfi65]

bk is not the answer and never will be. He is average at best, although the bk supporters love him for his 8 win seasons and fraudulent 2012 year where ND could have lost 3-4 games easily. Mr. echo and pennisick are two of the biggest bk supporters. Echo who is a self proclaimed "pop warner coach" always wants to ask so who would you propose as the next ND coach? Or joe Schmitt is starting in front of Nyles Morgan because "you aren't at practice- you know more than the coaches" as ND gets mauled over up the middle with joe making another feeble attempt at trying to tackle the ball carrier. But hey joe is the only one that knows how to line up the defense. But I digress.......here you go mr. echo, so tired of your bs "who would you hire instead of bk" here are all the coaches I would take over your beloved bk in no order, it doesn't matter they are all better than your overpaid/overhyped clown Kelly:
Kevin Summlin, Pat Fitzgerald, Larry Fedora, Mike Leach, Chris Petersen, David Shaw, Mike Gundy, Kyle Whittingham, Tom Herman, Gary Patterson

Ok. Which of those do you consider as legitimate options ? Many will never come to ND such as Petersen,Fitzgerald,Shaw or gundy. I like leach a lot and Herman too. The others are no better than what they have now in my opinion . Curious any football in your background or are you just a natural born genius ?

 

[Irishjohn68]

Not one of those coachs is coming to ND. At least be realistic.

 

[TOMMY_23]

The best thing is for Kelly to improve.

He can't

What we have now is Mediocre, any of these are worth a chance. We know what this clown will deliver........8 win seasons

 

[NDIRISH53]

Fleck will spend 2-3 years at minny then come to ND

 

[mirer03]

None of those are an option and wtf would ND do with Mike leech? Air raid offense in South bend is ludicrous to think of. You think ND has trouble with defensive recruits now lol. I believe Kelly has three years no matter what and deserves the time. ND is still eons better than under Davie, Weis, or ty.

If I have to pick a successor, I go a different direction and look at Brett bielema. He's out of place in the sec, and is made for ND. Big tight ends and olines and run the damn ball. I hope he gets a hard look after Kelly leaves on his on accord in three years after a roaring success at ND.

Of course you would think that. You don't know anything about it.

AGAIN, have the last 4 coaching searches not taught you anything ?

No thank you.

Based on what ? The voices in your head ?

Which is what the majority of your choices produce.

Just an FYI, Texas A&M fans are calling for Sumlin's head just like you're calling for BK's head. Do your homework first.

That's 3/4 of a good thing.

Gundys OC Mike yurcich is a real up and comer. Had lots of suitors this past spring.

 

[irishfan26]

I was screaming "Row The Damn Boat" from December to February. I collected my thoughts and reset my mind. I love what Kelly did in the off season. His coordinator hires seem to be homeruns (according to many cfb experts). He has been a roller coaster since he has been here. A missed fg away from the playoff in 2015, which would have given him 2 appearances in 3 years. With all the injuries that year, it was a hell of a coaching job by him. Last year just sucked. We couldn't have made more coaching and playing mistakes if we tried. Last year was the first time in a long time that I started the season believing we could win any game on our schedule. Then Texas happened and I snapped back to reality. He's our coach and I will support him until he is not.

If he is replaced, back the Brinks truck up to Fleck and bring his boat to South Bend!

I coulda said 2/4 as I really don't know much about Gundy other than he's a man and he's forty [five]. I'm a little suspicious of the entire Big12 because they run shotgun passing spreads like we already have. And almost every 2nd tier school that wins winds up getting in trouble a few years later.

 

[Ara64]

Bob Stoops should be offered the job first if Kelly and staff doesn't get the job done by the winter of 2020. NO ND HC should be allowed more than 25 loses in his time at ND.

So, your logic is that only Kelly can coach at ND because 4 previous hires did not work out. LOL. Might as well give him a lifetime contract!!!

When you realize that ND has nothing to offer big time coaches at top 25 programs other than an unrealistic fan base, rigorous, academics, and south bend you'll understand we're best served with Brian Kelly. That being said he cannot have another year like last year. IMO 8/9 wins this year will be impressive we have a QB that's never played an important snap.

Let's assume you are correct. Didn't ND have an unrealistic fan base, rigorous academics and South Bend when Parseghian was hired? When Holtz was hired? I can't recall 1964, but I do recall 1985. I think those same things applied then.

Yes but different era, kids would do anything to get into ND back then. It's a totally different landscape, we literally could pick and choose players and coaches we can't do that today. The media market and the money in College football changed it. I love ND football, I will always, but I'm just being realistic.

 

[Buguit]

It's beyond stupid to believe there does not exist a coach anywhere that is capable and willing to take ND's job that is bettter than Kelly .... hear that everyone? ... Kelly is the best ND will ever be able to do ..... LOL!

 

[SALittleGiant513]

Really? Other than Petersen I think they all could

Tom Herman isn't coming to ND. ND will not match UT, he wants to be in the South. UT is as good of a job if not better then ND. Lolz.

Pat Fitzgerald is going to Die/Retire at Northwestern

Sumlin is not definitely a better coach then BK and he has a much easier job recruiting at A&M. I can see him getting booted or leaving b/c A&M is the worst but if that happens I think he goes elsewhere, for better or worse I don't see Sumlin ever getting hired at ND, not with the issues his players have had at A&M

Patterson has had rumors of players being out of control on his recent teams, I am not a fan of his recruiting, very good player development. I like him as an option but I think he is like Fitzgerald just not as sure about his staying at TCU forever.

Peterson is not leaving Washington for ND. He likes the NW and wont come here. If he was an option he would have came to ND or considered it seriously when he was at Boise.

Just realized I have put too much thought into a troll post... bravo man.

No one ever said that. The last 4 searches certainly didn't t have any highly accomplished coaches tripping over themselves to get the job. That's the cold hard reality.

No one knows what the hell you are trying to say. You make no sense. You argue for Kelly remaining as coach because there are no better options. When you are called out on this you do a 180 degree turn and tell me your post went over my head. Then you state above that it is hard to recruit good coaches to ND so we are better off with Kelly. WTF? It is not that difficult an issue.

So you do believe there are better options out there!!! LOL. Try to stay a little consistent geezer.

90 years old and as sarcastic as ever. Take a nap.

I'd much rather be old and sarcastic than go through life thinking that the sky is always falling.

Only in the anonymous world of the internet would someone think it was funny to make fun of old people. Do you pull wings off flies too?

You're just dense and can't understand people that don't talk at a junior high level.

 

[SALittleGiant513]

To be clear making fun of old people in real life is funny when you are young.

Yes, I have said that Kelly has earned the right to remain the coach this season. I ve also said that another stinker and he s likely gone. The last 4 coaching searches at Notre Dame did not result in any high profile coaches showing even passing interest in the job other than Urban's flirtation. What would make anyone think that would change if Kelly goes ? Change for the sake of change is just that. Got somebody better ? I m on board. Just be realistic. Nowhere have I ever said that only Kelly could coach ND.

 

[Runforit]

Selections of college football coaches seems to be - who is the new best coach out there often based on a short period (a year or two) without any insightful analysis.

If I was part of the selection committee, I would employee some bright guys to study the success/failure of current coaches and find out what are the common characteristics that contributed to their success (i.e. - assistant to a successful head coach, age, recruiting ability, .........)
