King is a sensationalist and as much a rumor monger as the rest of espn and si.

Yep...I don't believe the Mora story for one second. But if it were true, I think it would have been a bad move.

1. People rarely do their best when they are under employed. Mora would not have been happy as our DC.

2. Mora would have simply been looking for a HC slot while filling our void. Bad move. There is something to be said for continuity of the coaching staff. We need to hire someone that wants to be in th job for a while.

Even though Washington is already grumbling after 2 seasons, ND will be the only target when it comes to this crap.

they seem to conviently forget our poor recruiting classes, our losses to syracuse and byu and purdue while also getting waxed by our arch rivals.
unfrikin believeable. people will pr int anything. there should be like a darth vader character in charge ofthe press. and when they print something that is just completely stupid, he should chop off their hands with a light saber.

That was my problem with our staff initially. While I was excited to a certain extent that most of our assistants were HCs at some point, I worried that they were under employed and would become discontented very quickly.

It turns out that they were. Nothing gives a team more of an identity crisis than two many Chiefs.

I don't believe this story because mora is interviewing for head coaching jobs in the nfl. cw knows he wasn't going to accept a asst. job when he's up head coaching jobs.

The rock-solid, no-exceptions buyout number for Weis from Notre Dame: $21 million.

It would be interesting to know if this is true. It might be, but it's hard to say. ND generally does not throw those numbers out in public EVER. There is still debate today whether Willingham had a 5 or 6 year contract.

i apologize. my last comment was sort of Baathist in nature and i would like to have it stricken from my record. Free press is a wonderful thing
