First I don't see a new coach next year. I think the admin will say this year was a rebuilding year and 2018 is the year things come together. However I don't trust this admin. to hire a coach. The last time ND had the right people in place to hire a coach was Fr Hesburgh and AD Krause. ND has been 0 for 4 since. Unless the admin. changes or the board gets involved ( and I have little confidence in them) things won't get better. ND is and has been a glorified NW or Vandy and I hate that.

What was last year then? I've never heard of back-to-back rebuilding years. I can't believe ND is going to tank again this year and not make a run at Chip Kelly.
Believe it. I think Swarbrick is dug in. He has the perfect excuse. A new staff needs time to get their kind of kids in place. At this point it has nothing to do with BK. It's all about the assistants getting the program in shape. I think it has more to do with the recruiting class then the team's wins and losses. I don't agree with it. But, I think that's how it is. If ND. goes less then 11-2 I'd let coach go then I'd promote with in as no coach would come in without there own staff.

Jack must not of learned his lesson from Saturday night. It'll be a Michigan home game next Sept. 1. The fans have spoken. It's time for Jack to listen. We want change or else he will continue to suffer the embarrassment he did Saturday with the sea of red.
 
I would love being a mind reader at that moment.....

the fact that you will never be an Alabama, Clemson,or Fla.St. In this new era of college football. be proud of the fact that you are an outstanding academic institution ,first and foremost. I'd rather be a Stanford, Wisconsin, Michigan than a football school. you have standards that you adhere to, which the rest of us admire.
 
Problem is, Stanford must have stole our recipe for success! Let's not forget this school rode the back of it's football team when it was coming into it's own.

Perhaps the powers that be should re educate themselves on that!

Wasn't Chip Kelly "banned" from coaching for five years by the NCAA after he left Oregon?? Similar to the punishment put on Jim Tressel.

If so, ND will NEVER hire a coach with that stigma. Never.

Yes, he had a five year show cause penalty. I believe he is eligible to coach again in college starting next season. And no, ND is not going to hire a guy coming off a show cause penalty. But I am sure someone will.
 
Look at what Dan Mullen does with QB's. Tebow, Dak, and now Fitzgerald all got better under his coaching. Dashone couldn't get away from BK fast enough.

But ND has constant issues under the current regime. Multiple rape allegations, embarrassing arrests, and academic fraud that has the potential of wiping out wins. It's almost a yearly thing under Kelly. He's fine, but ooooh no, ND can't hire Chip. :confused:

The biggest mistake of all was putting a kid on a scissor lift in 55 mph winds. This holier than thou crap has to end.

You have a better chance of being head coach than Chip. I want what you are smoking.
Who will be tomorrow's choice for head coach.? It is like you are choosing flavors of ice cream.

Probation followed St Lou around wherever he went. With Bama&USC sanctions are just a question of when not if, so I guess Helton and Saban are out. Urban Meyer challenged the U for the 2 deep arrest record. Belichek got caught cheating...

Basically people who don't like CKelly or anyone else will always invent a reason of impossibility. But it's never consistent and they guy they want gets immunity.

Of course. He has absolutely no idea about the workings and structure of a major college program. The only thing he is sure of is he hates the current coach and likely believes his incessant dead horse beatings will cause a change. A simpleton for sure.

Well put. Kind of shows how awful Kelly is doesn't it? I'll take a turtle as coach at this point. I can't believe there are fans like you still in love with Kelly! He's lost like 10 straight games against big time competition.

I am expecting a very good year. You might be disappointed. Who are you promoting today? Is Sarkisian sober?
 
What real ND fan actually believes that ND can do no better than this ?

- NCAA probation
- Most losses in ND history
- Academic scandal
- Vacated wins 2012/2013
- .655 win %
- 48-17 against unranked teams
- 0 major bowl wins
- ranked only 3 of 7 seasons
- losing record against ranked teams 11-15
- 0 wins against top 5 teams
- 2-7 against top 10 teams ( 2 lone wins vs #10 MSU and #8 Oklahoma in 2012) .... zero wins last 4 years

Just ask Penny ... ND can do no bettter than this ...... WOW!

Yall should petition the American government asking them to save ND football. ND football is too big to fail and needs a bailout. The American economy nay the Global economy hangs in the balance.

Are you sober?

I hope you don't live near a bridge or tall building with multiple losses before Oct. 1.
