Who Will be the Next Coach at Notre Dame

Which is completely silly.

I've been an ACC fan since my oldest brother went to UVa during the Sampson years. I went to BC. I've always hated the Big East -- especially since St. Johns was always too much of a p***y to play Iona College (which I grew up near) in basketball.

But I hate BC in the ACC. Their natural rivals are in the Big East. Or at least in the old Big East. It's current lineup is a joke too.

 

Two thumbs up from Marv Levy.

 

I think BC kind of regrets that move. Maybe not for football as much as for the other sports.

 

I'd love to have BC back. I miss that easy win.

If the BIg East football schools had any brains (and they don't) They'd break off and form their own conference. I'm tired of people at Seton Hall, Providence and basketball schools having a decision in what goes on with football-related business. Plus, you'd think Providence, St. Johns and Seton Hall would wanna rid themselves of Pitt, Louisville, Syracuse and UCONN so they could, I dunno, start making the men's basketball tournament again. A 16 school basketball conference is way too damn big.

Then again, this is a conference that had Michael Vick, Donovan McNabb, the Miami Hurricanes, and couldn't get a better TV contract than the stupid-assed Bg East Game of the Week seen by 11 people in Worchester, Mass.

 

And the proposed expansion of the NCAA basketball tournament would enable them to add another AQ conference (The Bigger East?) berth without having another play-in games or eliminating an at-large berth.

I too have wondered what you wonder. And that's what might finally influence ND to join a conference as a full-time member, when their other varsity sports are faced with independence or a league of non-football Catholic peer schools, which generally are not as strong in Olympic sports across the board as the larger Big East public schools.

 

Or the fickle finger of a clock operator.

 

That, too. It would be fun to read a story on something like that.

 

I wonder how long before the new coach breaks out the Kelly Blue uniforms???

 

Football is only five or six road games, all played on the weekend.

When you think about all of the other sports that have to travel to North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, etc. for their games, it makes no sense.

 

Well said Michael. I don't blame the Cincy players for being angry. No doubt that Kelly has been asking them all season to make a commitment yet he renegs on his to them.

I think ND could have reached higher. Kelly seems too plain vanilla to me.

The media today in South Bend did the best to lob soft balls. At times it seemed more like a Rotary Club meeting.

 

I thought this guy gave out locker room abortions. How'd they hire him without pissing off their fans?

 

Michigan State what now?
