Coach Note // Play Like a Champion Today // University of Notre Dame

From the article:

This week, Louis Nix, a Notre Dame senior and student in the Social Foundations of Coaching course, as well as a linebacker on the football team, wrote the weekly Coach Note.

.......Linebacker?

Fire Longo

I would have absolutely no issue with Louis sitting out the rest of the season to avoid aggravating his injuries. Kid has earned the right.

Agree.

Rumored to half a step on Carlo in pass coverage.

Is this just lip service, or do we think there's a chance?

probably trolling us....but devin gardner would prob be that qb

I think the meant HE (Nix) would be that QB.

$hit....i read that wrong...my mistake your fault ...my dad used to always say that to me and i would always look at him w/ a puzzled look...and think how is it my fault..he made the mistake....lol

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Yeah...he needs to go into the draft...no need to get beat up in college anymore Lou, you got your degree.

 

[NDhoosier]

I highly doubt he returns, but I would welcome him with open arms if by some miracle he returns. Just imagine if both Nix and Tuitt retur... ah, what is the point, never going to happen.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

I would be shocked if lou came back.

But I would argue, his 5th year would be more important to the well being of the team than the 4th years than teo, floyd, and eifert came back for.

Louis is a huuuge part of this defense. (no pun intended)

Totally agree.

If I were Kelly I'd tell Nix he would play him on O every goal line snap next year lol. Hype up the Heisman campaign as much as possible.

But if I were Nix, seriously I would just got to the NFL.

Outside of pride, there is no reason not to. ND degree in hand + 1st round pick? He (SHOULD BE) gone.

 

[FearTheBeard]

Definitely, for his sake i hope he goes. Hes gonna have his degree and has battled for ND, id hate for him to come back and have some type of serious injury.

 

[ulukinatme]

Mama Nix could probably use the money too.

 

[#1rish]

Hope he goes to the NFL. He's a sure-fire first round pick, and will get a nice contract and hefty signing bonus (I'd say maybe a $6M-$7M bonus, assuming he goes around #8-12) because of it. I'm sure his Mom and large family could use it. He's paid his dues here. Can't wait to see him succeed at the next level.

 

[Irish#1]

Irish Chocolate, I won't shed one tear if you come back.

Great article on Irish Chocolate.

My favorite quote:

And when Nix was asked recently how he wanted his legacy to look, he simply said “I just want to be remembered as a nice guy.”

 

[Redbar]

Will always be a BIG fan.

 

[Irish#1]

+1

 

[irishmarine]

the selfish irish fan (me included) would love for him to stay with tuitt and give it another run with a good team. with their experience and talent on the line it would allow the young LB's to grow into their spots. however, i agree that they should enter the draft if graded out in the first round.

Was surprised to read that he didn't get insurance.

 

[Canton_Irish]

I hope the guy has a ton of success in the NFL but as a selfish ND fan I don't see how we run a 3-4 without him next year. Our defense will take an even bigger step back without Big Lou next year.

 

[ryno 24]

We ran a decent 3-4 with Sean Cywnar and with Kona. He makes the team exponentially better but not to a point where we will be miserable without him.

 

[PLACforever]

As an ND fan, I'd love to see him back, but as a fan, I hope he goes, signs a contract as big as his personality and has a long and successful pro career.
Just hope not for a NFC East team besides the Giants. &#55357;&#56842;

 

[TheChosen1]

Really going to miss this kid..Kid committed to ND without a head coach and not knowing where the program was going. Enjoy Senior Day next week.
