Kelly's New Numbering System

I like using merit to pick numbers, but I'm not sure about the week to week #1 idea.

The Univ. of MT defense always gives their treasured number (37) to the most inspirational player who was recruited from the state of MT and it passed down by the people who wore it previously. That's a great tradition in my book.

Having several people wear #1 over the course of the year might get confusing -- especially in 20 years when we are trying to figure out who was wearing it way back when.
 
Nice link, thanks for posting.

I too question the 'week to week' model. I think it would fit much better as a year to year deal (e.g. player has a great season/camp/semester he gets awarded the number the following season).
 
ummm no '1' in team.

one of the dumbest notions conjured up! like 348 always says, "play better!"

Merit based for single digit jerseys (added BK to title to generate traffic)

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf...t-no--1-jersey-on-weekly-basis-131719248.html

How's dopey going to work his idiotic merit system around this?

SECTION 1. General Provisions

The Game

2. At the snap, at least five players wearing jerseys numbered 50 through 79 are on the offensive scrimmage line and no more than four players are in the backfield (Rules 2-21-2, 2-27-4 and 7-1-4-a) (Exception: Rule 7-1-4-a-5) (A.R. 7-1-4-IV-VI).

Exception:

5. In a scrimmage kick formation at the snap (Rule 2-16-10) Team A may have fewer than five linemen numbered 50-79, subject to the following conditions:

(a) Any and all linemen not numbered 50-79 who are ineligible receiver(s) by position become exceptions to the numbering rule when the snapper is established.
 
I think it will be only that the #1 is unassigned and used on a weekly basis. I don't think it is all the single digits!

If not then based upon the magnitude of your Jersey number, fans can share what your HC thinks of your performance?

FUBAR!

Mike McGlinchey is among if not my favorite player.
How do you leave a whole unit out of your merit system?
 
The #1 seems to be a prize number on college teams right now so why not use it as an incentive from week to week. Whoever thought you'd see a 342 lb NT wearing #1? Big Lou wanted that number real bad back in 2013. Numbers no longer define positions on the football field like when we played.

Good post Ara. Coach Kelly knows how to motivate his young players. Most of the posters here are well over the age of 18 to 21 and might not understand what motivates these youngsters IMHO.

it is all about equality now! they should all wear the same number; no one should be held higher than the other!
 
and as for referres and their uni's; they should lose one strip on their Jersey for each blown call; when you run out of strips, you cannot officiate games! (ESPN will probably hire you!)

The two biggest nitwits on the board are against it so it has to be a great idea.
How will the O linemen be rewarded? Who will be doing the voting? How will the off field performances be graded? How will the on field performance be graded? How much time will be spent week to week on this "project"? I don't like the loss in continuity. I don't like that a position group is excluded. I don't like that the staff/kelly will be spending extra time on it. I don't like the potential for "disorganization", ongoing disruption....among other things...... PS kelly owns the music city bowl as his biggest post season bowl win. He stinks.

Bitch , bitch, bitch. Your clueless. O lineman don't like to be singled out for anything. Shouldn't you be cleaning Montana's car?

You're not your.....
PS. I don't believe kelly knew the rule on O linemen when concocting his "merit system". He's not the brightest bulb and I expect this wrinkle to add to his coaching discombobulation.
Keep making excuses though....

It is Kelly not kelly. All last names are capitalized. How did you get into Notre Dame with your lack of knowledge of English?
 
I don't capitalize the last names of folks I have zero respect for....
You may view all my posts and see names like Rockne, Leahy, others...capitalized.... However, the little pork chop deserves no respect.... PS You are an admitted "drooling" lech. If a refrigerator could hit back you'd be toast.... As is kelly caused you to break your hand. That was funny....

You don't like him as a football coach, got it. But saying you have no respect for him? And purposely lower-casing his name?

Why watch?
1) ND wins, Kelly succeeds, you are miserable.
2) ND loses, you hate Kelly, & miserable.
So why even waste your time?

Honestly, which would you rather have?
A) Kelly fails, let go in 2021.
B) Kelly wins multiple NCs & gets extension.

Because you would be fine with Kelly is he wins titles, right?

Why don't you put a sock in it? I want nothing more than for ND to win every game and win big.

I have zero respect for kelly's low class, low brow, vulgar, disloyal, ballistic, embarrassing, poor coaching.... antics. He's classless and a boor....among other things.

Now go create another handle to agree with yourself. You sound just like pennick only more shrill....
 
the Brain dead have come out to post. Usual empty of any content - just the usual trash from trash.
 
Bodi, just saying, you may want to be careful here. This guy cgvr is apparently keeping some type of "dossier" or database of your posts.

We have seen him do it with other posters also. And of course, we know he has one going on Coach Kelly. But remember that Kelly is well paid to deal with these obsessed trolls and weirdos. You are not.

Again, from the Wiki:
trolls tend to have dark personality traits and show signs of sadism, antisocial behavior,psychopathy, and machiavellianism.[42][43] the 2014 study suggested that the noxious personality characteristics known as the "dark triad of personality", and concluded that trolling "to be an Internet manifestation of everyday sadism."

I'm just saying it's a little bit creepy.

they fail to see what happens when posters have respectful exchanges. It is not necessary to agree in discussion opinion; but it is necessary to post with some sort of decorum and decency. Those are 2 characteristics lacking in those 2! There really is no help for either; they are what they post! garbage.

Good post. I think you hit the nail on the head. I only went after cgvr in the first place because he would nonstop attack posters who I admired. He is a very sick man is all I can say.

Wrong. Show me an attack on a poster.

I have accurately called you an admitted lech. You're a guy that admittedly gets off on avatars.

"Turnovermachine always has awesome avatars. They make me drool."

Your posts are known for their inaccurate, non substantive, pom pom waving, and cheer leading flair.

Correction, ND loses and cvgr is happy, gives him more ammo in his little head.

He never went to ND! Anyone on a message board say or claim whatever the hell they want.

"I can verify, CVGR is an alum from the late 70s. And there are lots of alums that don't like Kelly, but certainly not a majority. And that doesn't exactly make Kelly unique. Other than maybe Ara, all of our coaches since Leahy in the late 1940s had no shortage of detractors among students and alums. And yes, that even includes Lou.

Like I said, you never went to Notre Dame.

Writing this falsehood clearly makes you feel better because you, like many here, weren't smart enough to get in. Seriously, one poor guy admitted that his parents went to ND. Can you imagine their disappointment when their child couldn't get in because they raised a dunce?
PS I spent 3 years in Dillon and one at 713 Notre Dame Avenue..... We lived up the street from a funeral home. The SMC chicks loved that we always had flowers.... I'm happy to see that the board perve agrees with you. You're in good company.

not to fret. kelly is clearly smarter than you when it comes to football and running his program. the players themselves understand what he is doing. nothing idiotic about it. let kelly do what he does best. coaching and administrating his program. you should stick to what you do best, hating and being uneducated about the game of football.
