Give him the money and allow him a few of the athletes he is accustomed to at FSU into ND. Enough is enough of 8-9 win seasons and losses to elite teams. There is no reason why we cant get Jimbo and allow him to restore us to what we should be. BK can be the assistant head coach if he wants.

Jimbo is going to Texas A&M.
 
Get serious!

Fisher could never, ever play to the rules where real student athletes must attend classes, play football and adhere to the same laws as other students.

He actually stated , "Winston is a credit to FSU".

On top of everything else, Kelly is a far better coach!

Jimbo is not as good of a head coach as everyone thinks, would not be an upgrade. I think Scott Frost would be a great hire, but i think he ends up at Nebraska.


I would be very surprised if he does not end up at Nebraska.

Why would Scott Frost be a great hire for a pressure cooker like ND? What's his resume as a HC? How much experience as a HC does he have? He is still an uncertain commodity in my opinion.
 
Scott Frost is an unknown at this point. He is doing well at UCF, but that's UCF, not Notre Dame.

In time he may be a great coach, he may even be one now, but it's too early.

Jimbo is a clown who is able to get any kid in the school and still will have a .500 season at best. Look at how he has handled the never ending off the field issues at FSU and you will see why he will never be at ND.

Geez, will you ever stop?
 
anyone is better than Kelly, and Jimbo has a national Championship...


Gerry Faust was not better than Kelly. Bob Davie was not better than Kelly. Ty Willingham was not better than Kelly. Charlie Weis was not better than Kelly.

I would rather Notre Dame drop sports than open Admissions too far about the type of student. The integrity of the institution is more important than satisfying the ego of fans.

Know Jimbo personally. Good guy, really good coach.

This needs to be stated by the university, and quickly. This notion that ND is playing for championships is false.

It’s time to lower ticket prices and settle in at 8/9 wins is a great year. I’m totally on board with what you’re saying. I’m confused as to why Jack won’t say it though.

why does it "need " to be stated ? why do fans think they are owed something ? don't like the product ? don't buy it or watch it.

We certainly don't need this douche bag. What a swell job he did this year

Wow you are a fricking genius. Those are some great coaches.
 
Right. You are a fan of Jeff Brohm.
Yes I am. Just to educate you a little bit. Purdue has been beyond putrid since Darryl Hazel took over. Well even before that under Danny Hope. Brohm took a pathetic purdue team and has them 6-6 going to a bowl game. Hazel won 9 games in 4 years at Purdue. So yes that is quite the accomplishment for a coach not having "his guys". Funny bk has had his guys for 5 years now and we get the same ole shit - 8 -9 wins a year.

I find it absolutely hilarious that you are plugging Brohm. I'm not saying he doesn't have the potential to become a good coach. But Kelly's record before he came to ND was head and shoulders over Brohm's now. Or in simple terms, Brohm is more of a gamble than Kelly was in 2009.
 
Kelly is most definitely a better coach than Fisher and if you can't see that it speaks clearly to your lack of football knowledge.
 
Everyone is better than Kelly? You and all the other morons on here they keep saying that will be sorry. There are lots of teams with losing schedules year after year after year.

I don’t think it’s hilarious at all. Records matter for sure, but in context. Brohm has Purdue playing tough minded disciplined fundamental football and six wins there is a significant achievement. Look at the records Ara and Holtz had the season before being hired by ND. That said, I agree that Kelly was a better gamble at the time of his hire than Brohm would be today. That doesn’t make Brohm a laughable consideration if ND was looking to replace Kelly this year, which they’re not.

Perhaps I did not say it artfully, but the point I was trying to make is that Kelly had a lot more to recommend him in 2009 than Brohm does now. The poster at issue is one of the most vociferous on this board in terms of advocating for the firing of Kelly. But Brohm is really a huge question mark himself.

Having now read another thread started by the poster in question and seeing his responses, I have a better appreciation for your post here. If Kelly were to leave this or next year, guys like Brohm and Campbell and Morehead are some of the more realistic options, and Kelly’s resume at the time of his hire was superior to each of these guys. That said, these guys would be on my list for serious consideration.

Supply and Demand. Quality of product isn’t the only factor when it comes to ND Football. If fans are willing to pay, why would they ever lower the prices?

Would our players be allowed to steal crab claws at The Mier market?

As a perk, offer to fund a county jail extension next to the Gug so the fine citizen/athletes he brings in will feel right at home!!

Well we've seen your opinion enough...Frost is young, energetic and hungry. His team hasn't folded in November and his kids respect him. This program needs a shot in the arm and someone like Frost or Campbell can deliver.

Sometimes you have to take calculated risks in life. This is one.

Brohm is likeable, Kelly is not. Got it? Kinda like ndf65 vs your posts. Recruits and intelligent posters know this.

I'll take my chances as will most people on this board minus you, Pennick, Toby and Notre Dame du lac.
 
I'd let Brohm win something before we gambled on him. Strong and Frost both have better resumes at the moment.

This has to be the funniest post of the day -- I needed a good laugh.

Obviously the OP has not clue here other than than to provide a good laugh for everyone!

Why would any school say something like that? There are schools that should have a parade for going .500, and they never say they are playing for anything less than championships. So a school that, with a little luck, might have its third 10 win season in the last six years is going to come out and say we are not playing for championships? Bizarre.
