I unfortunatly know Corso well cause he was a coach here at louisville. That's a pea brained 2 reasons why GT can beat Notre Dame. He's a con and just a frozen fixture making money pretending he knows things.

If you want a TV analysis as Corso about his big game plan once here in Louisville. He had the team come out one foot with a black shoe and one with a white. Takes brains to think of that to hype your team. He must be married to the producers cousin to still be on the air.

Beyond his 2 pea brain sound bites, yes we have some problems Nix is one and he isn't as stupid or dumb as Corso. I look for a battle royal in Atlanta

I think he is actually right...I know, I know, we all think ND is invincible, but on any given Saturday, any team can lose...personally do I think it's going to happen? No, I think we should win rather easily. We just have to come ready to play.

Corso is such a hack.

 

[iloveirish_12]

I don't like Corso. I think he is dumb. He never knows what he is talking about.

 

[Guest]

he's only there for entertainment, he provides no knowledge whatsoever. if I'm not mistaken he was the first one to say we'd start off the season 0-6.

 

[brndc]

Does he dislike Notre Dame? His statements sure make it seem so.

 

[34Squire34]

Count me in with the "Corso is a moron" group. Somehow he indicates that he thinks both Texas AND O$U will lose thier showdown this fall.

I like Herbstreit but Corso has worn out his welcome.

 

[TexasDomer]

He was talking to a group in Atlanta, right? I doubt he would say the same things the same way if he were speaking to a group in South Bend. He's just catering to the crowd.

Of course, GT does have a chance to beat us, especially if they get their receiver the ball; he's a stud. Truth be told, every team on our schedule has a chance of beating us, just some more than others.

Corso is a personality, not an expert. He plays things to the local crowds, and just tries to have fun with his job and get folks like us riled up. He doesn't love or hate Notre Dame publicly, he just says stuff to be provocative. If one were to speak with him in private, my guess is that he actually likes Notre Dame as an institution.

 

[mirertobrooks]

He's just promoting for ratings. He says those things to give us something to talk about. Herbsteit on the other hand is an excellent handicapper, if your the betting type.

From my understanding, didn't Corso come out at halftime of a Memphis State v. Louisville game and wave a white flag to Memphis' coach after a first half butt kicking?

I agree, and usually I'm not much for "personalities" but for some reason, he seems rather innocuous and is a part of the college football "sound and look", just like Madden is for the NFL.

Corso is a Florida St. allum and has a boner for the southern schools.
