This is what Kelly is. His decision making has been baffling from his first season Tulsa. Evaluating talent - Dayne Christ?

The article in today's USA Today is vintage Kelly. "The boys need to grow up" "There is a fine line between winning and losing" BS Alabama has no such fine line. OSU? nada Washington had a close call last week but Petersen has them winning by a razor's edge.

I think a lot of the so called Kelly Apologists defend him on this board because of the ruthless, constant personal attacks. It's obscene, and out of control. I don't call my worse enemy the names that get spewed on this board towards this human being. He coaches a football team full of 19 year olds.

This is disturbing, there are people who devote a large portion of their day to maintain this hate, photo shop devil horns on the father with kids. It's bizarre and sad. This board represents the ND fan base, and is doing a poor job.

He makes 4 million dollars a year. If he can't produce, he should quit.
 
You are a bystander, a message board peasant. Don't act like you're in the thicket with this team, coaches and players exchange words. My high school coach in Utah for gods sake said worse. Grow a pair, be a man, act like you've played a sport- it happens.

This board attacks him personally DAILY, a man they have never met yet, no connection with besides a team they watch on TV.

If somebody would have told you 20 years ago the purpose of your life would be slandering, personally attacking a 50 year old with kids and drawing pics of devil horns on this man, you would have tied the noose then. What a sorry, pathetic existence you live. WOW

You would quit a 4/Mil job a year cause the message board peasants said you weren't performing? Haha hell no, ride that out. His boss hasn't quit on him.
 
Keep looking on YouTube of something clever, you spend more time on YouTube than my 16 year old daughter. Basement time pays off!

You can't possibly be this stupid! He should quit because he sucks. And he doesn't deserve that salary. Where did I say he should quit because of message board comments?????? Are you a chick? You twist everything like a bi-polar woman.

He is a vulgar underperforming pipsqueak and regularly a piss poor representative of Notre Dame on a national stage. He is not an alum. He is not ND family. He's a disloyal merc...... PS The picture is a perfect depiction of Porky. The sooner he is gone the better for Notre Dame. The clock is ticking....

He may not have a job much longer and that's fine but you resort to juvenile name calling and belittling non stop.Pure hatred for A man who coaches a football team. If you have ever fired a man, none of these emotions come into play. Keep typing and drawing pictures and you tubing.. Pathetic. People have on this board may welcome a change if it's the right one but not with the sad, lifeless, juveniles agenda you've been riding for how many years?
 
ok, try to think back to the 2weeks leading up to the UT game. We had a UT fan here, a rather polite and seemingly in touch with the UT team talent.
I noted that Strong had a massive job ahead of him when he took on the head coach position; String needed to purge not just players but underperforming staff. Strong needed to re-establish recruiting even in the home state. He effectively was only in his 2nd year of rebuilding. Our visiting UT fan agreed.
I noted that UT was going to field a very young team on defense and while talented was very inexperienced.
We know that the UT OL was 'not very good'; and most other skill positions were untried if talented.
Then there was the fact thatvUT would be starting a true Fr.

The above was contrasted to a fully entrenched 7+ year head coach, returning with a talented offinse loaded with future starts and NFL drsftees. While the defense was a problem it was in fact a 7 year in the making problem!

So, we had a coach fully established with his vision and plan vs a coach whose team was anything but;
The established team vs the team in early rebuilding.
The established coach vs the 2nd year coach.
Experience vs inexperience.

I said there was no rational for losing to UT. I baited our Kellyites to make predictions in view of all this; if they believed in their guy, they should show it! few if any took the fleece.

I tried to get the point across, that there was no possible explanation for ND to lose this game unless there 'was a problem'. The warning was sounded.

Instead the pre game hype by the Mean Girls and 'loyal to a faulters' tried to convince that UT was some kind of super team on verge of a great season.

So guys like (echo, Decker, IJ, ...) few others who like to throw out the 'wrong again' thing as if that will resonate with the majority that truth be told realize that most most times my strongly worded posts are pretty much spot on!

So next time you want to use that lie; put a sock in it! you never were right!

Your statement of grow a pair and be a man concerning things Kelly has said to players pretty much applies to Kelly when it comes to something said on a message board. Especially when you are performing as horribly as Kelly is as the head coach at the most storied college program in the country with the largest fanbase. If his feelings are hurt he should grow a pair.

you are quite disillusioned. Sad is the only word you use that makes sense. sad that you accept the mediocrity and blatant BLATANT poor decision making, excuse making, and lack of player development that is Kelly. You act like we are fans with nothing more to do than throw rocks and piss on Kelly when in fact, we are fans that have tolerated him and given him every chance only to see baffling acts of stupidity like the Florida Champs bowl when he called off our dogs who were rattling Manuael and then proceeded to lose the game when we should have won going away He sux fungus
 

You know Decker/bizzybeck it’s no wonder you adore porky. Birds of a feather…

“you resort to juvenile name calling and belittling” “You are a bystander, a message board peasant.” Do you see a contradiction/hypocritical behavior here? Thanks for those gems.

“coaches and players exchange words. My high school coach in Utah for gods sake said worse.” Uh okay, comparing your HS reform school coach to Mr. Potato Head’s behavior on a national/global stage makes sense. bwahahahaha

Everything I have ever written about Tinkles is 100% accurate. That’s your problem.

Again, which names have you in a snit?
Porky? Mr. Potato Head? Tinkles? Tinky Winky?
Do any of them come close to this?

I disagree with you
 
Ski...I had conveniently forgotten the Champs bowl, but agree. Every year there are controversial decisions, and the ones that fail are fair game for second guessing and criticism. That comes with the job. On balance, I thought Kelly was a good coach and one who had done a good job improving the overall football program. I felt he made more than his share of stupid in game decisions, but also felt he more often than not made excellent halftime adjustments. As a long time ND fan, I was supportive and thought the program was clearly on the upswing. His support of BVG after two years of pathetic defense and poor fundamentals raised major doubts about Kelly in my mind for the first time. But this year seems different. The decision to go back to the three man front against Texas after the four man front had made three consecutive three and out stops was indefensible. The unemotional poor play on both sides of the ball against a less than average Duke team, raised questions about the team's preparations, chemistry, and whether Kelly had their trust and support. Up to that point, I thought Kelly had done enough to deserve the opportunity to turn this season into prep for next year and the opportunity to deliver a great team next season. The NCS game derailed this. Passing 26 times in a hurricane and dropping to pass over 36 times was stubborn insanity. Not using MZ in those conditions was indefensible in my mind, and frustrating beyond words as NCS used their running QB to shred our defense. The fourth and 12 call was so stupid that it can't even be argued. Have to believe that the players saw all this as well and had to feel the coaches were not putting them in the best position to win, and nothing demoralizes a team more than that. For the first time in seven years, Kelly seems overwhelmed and beaten, and the fans and players see this. I don't agree that Kelly is a loser per se, but I do agree he is burned out and ineffective and that he has outlived his usefulness as the ND head coach.
 
Kelly is just that 'a good coach'; nothing more. But when goals are not a hieved over a reasonable duration and there are other unsatifactory related factors, then change is necessary.
 
btw: those unhappy with Kelly as the ND head coach: this is far from over.
18 more games and the 'Kelly pack' will be back at the 1st rally! Our burden to endure, that comes with precious W's.

Even if Kelly undergoes a total transformation and becomes a new man, a change necessitated by critical opinion of what it takes to succeed, that will not change the reality that from hire to now, critics citing the deficiencies were correct.

I agree. I have never been a Kelly apologist but I've made my case against him with statistics, facts and game time evidence. I don't understand the need to personally attack a coach. I didn't like it when it was done to Weis and I don't like it now.

Even people who defend him get involved in personal attacks on others rather than making their case based on facts.

Yeah, but apparently Porky gets a pass on his ongoing abusive and extremely vulgar behavior towards, players, coaches, alum, fans...... That's the spirit!

He recently attacked everyone that disagrees with his maltreatment and ineffective tactics....

"I'm just coaching and I've got a great relationship with my players. I'm just coaching. I'm being Brian Kelly. So if people have a problem with that, they're not going to be friends or fans of Notre Dame football, and I can't help that...." I get it....support my lunacy or you are no friend of ND.....

The guy is certifiable, overstates his player relationships and is losing alum/admin support at a record setting pace....

The best shot fired across kelly's bow was by the students.... the "fire Van Gorder" chant must have darn near knocked off you, pennick, decker..... Talk about a "personal" attack. That was a stadium filled whopper. Classic.... (PS started by the Sophomores)

It'll be interesting to see if they follow up on that....could get real ugly....

anybody who makes 4 million a year for not being successful should quit? Why? That's a pretty sweet deal if you can get it. He should on the other hand be summarily fired.

Honestly, I could not care less what Kelly does. I'm just saying that if you (I'm using the generic 'you') want to convince people who don't agree with you insulting them isn't the way to succeed, in fact it will have the opposite effect.

There are plenty of things Kelly has done wrong to make a case against him, I'm just not sure personal insults are going to convince anybody.

I disagree with your whitewash. Insulting Tinkles is far removed from insulting other board posters.

As for "convincing"....one need only look at the last post made by the "board superstar sunshine pumper"....

OK. I have joined ! Fire Kelly now ! Don't let that SOB on the bus ! So long everyone!
We have too much talent to lose to these marginal teams ! Fire Kelly with extreme prejudice ! Kizer has so much promise but he has never beat a good team ! I just don't understand that !! Kelly sets him up for failure---when they were near the goal line in a hurricane they should have fed Dexter or Adams the ball more---but no-- Kelly has him throw and it is an incompletion because of the wind or dropped by receivers because of the wet ball !@!! Kelly should not have been berating Mustipher he should have consoled him ! I am joining the crybabies and whiners !!! I want my beloved Irish to win !!! I want them to beat Stanford next week !! But I hope that it is with a interim coach !! If Kelly was a real man he would take a sword and stick it in his stomach like a Samarai !!! CGVR was right all along !! God bless you ---you magnificent bastard !! I will continue to watch the Irish the rest of the year because they are great young men and I am proud of them for never quitting and playing hard !! I am going to take a break from this board for awhile !! So long my enemies and my friends Ara, Telx, Zona, IrishMike, Bgi348,coninually, IrishDuck, Beck,IrishGranduer, Pennick,CoolIrish,CAPTAINSTABBIN,SKIBRO,ClassicIrish,TobySmart and so many more !! Live long and prosper!! Soon Purse will break the thirty thousand mark. I will not be around to celebrate @! CGVR is a son of a bit@H but a fun worthy adversary! Go Irish !! Beat Stanford !
 
I don't like the name-calling either. I think it's beneath adults to do that. I've always thought Kelly was a good coach. Said it last season after the Ohio St. debacle, but he's taken Notre Dame as far as he can take them. I think Kelly has every right to chew his players out for poor play, but you do that behind closed doors in the locker room or on the practice field. You don't hang these kids out in front of the media during a press conference. They are not professionals. He gets paid $4 million to take the bullets. You stand up there, and you take the heat. Kelly should not quit. The administration should have the guts to fire him. I don't think it will happen though. What I'm interested in is how the players will respond to Kelly the rest of the season. Will they fight to win out these next six games to get to a decent bowl game at 8-4, or have they had enough of Kelly. If it's the former, Kelly likely stays. If it's the latter, he 's probably lost the team, you will see decommits and he probably goes. I don't know what the answer is if it's somewhere in between, say a 6-6 finish for the year.

Cgvr, you're a Notre Dame man. Don't stoop to that level. You have successfully made your case that Kelly is a bad coach, backed it up with reams of facts, and been proven right by the way this season has unfolded. In essence, you've won the field. Even the obstinate Bodi has changed sides (maybe - I still think Bodi returns to the Kelly fold if Notre Dame wins out). In any event, you've won. There still may be a few Kelly diehards around here, but their numbers lessen after each passing loss.

So in that same vain, Kelly should be a man, grow a pair and take the name calling. He makes Millions a year. Your logic is twisted. I think you are more upset than Porky would be. Why don't you grow a pair you sentimental wuss.

So resigning out of respect for the University is out of the question? That basically makes him a thief.
