Should Swarbrick Be Fired?

[NotreDame du Lac]

he may be more to blame than Kelly for ND's problems because he's unwilling to make a change and he has the reigns. You cannot blame BK for staying if his boss has low expectations. We're losing recruits, sideline and conference antics have been a recurring problem, he's stating that a 4 loss coach will return even though similar programs are firing coaches that beat Kelly and/or have winning records, we've had more player problems and academic issues than ever before, and players are having on the field issues. This is epically bad.

Would you suggest they hire Fleck as AD?

What about his financial decisions.

1.. BJ's $22 million extension for 6 years - 6 years ! NO ND coach in the modern Era has coached past 11 seasons. The 6 year extension puts BK at 12 years !

Why was he given a 6 year extension. At $4.5 million per year ? Why ?

We had just made the same mistake with CW.

2. The Under Armour deal. ND signs them up for $82 Million at the end of 2014. In Early 2016 UCLA gets a deal from Under Armour for $280 million ! $280 million !

A year and half later the UCLA A.D. negotiates a deal worth $200 million more than ND's.

U think the UCLA brand is more popular or famous than the ND brand ?

JACK cost ND a lot of money on his Under Armour deal.

We also got a significant amount of UA stock in our deal, and it's doubled in value since the deal was signed.

Only 1 coach in the history or ND ever coached more than 11 years and that was Rockne. If he last for his entire contract Kelly will have coached longer than; Lou, Ara and Leahy... utterly ridicules and stupid.

Unless you win a NC no coach should be here more than 5 years.

So did UCLA.

you kidding? is that a rhetoric ?

Swarbrick and Kelly are in the process of utterly destroying ND as a football program.
a quarter decade of futility followed by deliberate distruction of the program.
What about the alumni, are they powerless to voice 'end the insanity'?

The kicker is Kelly will bolt and leave his mess behind at 1st opp!
