Weis "Mic'd Up" on 60 Minutes

[Irish Envy]

Man oh man, I'm definitely watching 60 Minutes this Sunday!

 

[SillyIrish]

No doubt, but I loved how they showed him cursing on the sidelines during the CBS promo. If I hear one negative comment from any person about a football coach cursing I'm going to freak. I had a coach my freshman year (HS) that cursed like a sailor and did not stop until the baseball season was over. Now my football coach was on a entirely different level and I believe taught the baseball coach. Kudos to them both.

 

[tedwick]

wow. i LOVE that promo. definitely watching.

They miked him up. According to CBS promo, the priests at ND won't like it.

 

[Irish Envy]

Bump for merge.

 

[iloveirish_12]

I think it is going to be funny.

 

[marv81s]

I can't imagine a coach swearing and cussing during a game. Jeesh, what was ND thinking hiring a guy that uses filthy language?

Someone taping it?

 

[UNTITLEDPROJECT]

TiVo anyone?

 

[tedwick]

that was GREAT. The part with Bon Jovi was particularly funny. But really, an excellent piece.

If someone spots video online, post the link. I forgot to set the friggin' TIVO and spent the afternoon/evening driving to New England and missed it.

 

[Óglaigh_na_hÉireann]

I love the guy all the more because of that.

 

[lattedatte]

that was a great piece.... for a liberal rag... just kidding...

 

[UNTITLEDPROJECT]

Why the fuck does he always curse,though?

 

[Irish Envy]

That truly was an excellent pro-Notre Dame piece. From the beginning to the end, nothing but good stuff. Loved it.

Are you kidding!? There was anti-ND bias ALL OVER THAT THING. Jeez. The media these days.

My favorite part was when he telling Latina, "when I ask you a question, you better have an answer!"

 

[Guest]

I've seen so many interviews, and pieces on Weis, and ND, but this was by far the best I've seen...Excellent stuff, I hope recruits were watching.

 

[Irish Envy]

Since they spliced together both with last year's recruiting war room and this year, I'd like to know if that recruiting call was this year or last.

LOL... or telling Greg to get the F&@$! off the field!

Wow that had a lot more inside info than I thought....I loved it when he was recruiting over the phone in the restaurant and saying "so do you wanna commit and get it over with?".....and when McNiel called him to tell him he was officially committing that was good stuff. I love the "war room" they had with all the recruit names.

They said after the interview you could go to their website to see extra footage on Weis they didn't show.

How does this affect recruiting though? What do you think a parent of a recruit is thinking when they're watching this with their son? Just wondering if it could have a negative affect.

I posted the same thing over on the recruiting board.... My heart says it was this year but I head says it was last year.

What would be negative about it? Elaborate what you saw?

Yea, the "war room" looked sick. I sure hope some recruits happened to be watching the NFL on CBS and the advertisement for 60 Minutes caught their attention.

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzz, that Super Bowl ring is gigantic!!!

Weis is such a genius, he knows that the top athletes(in general) care about one thing, getting to the next level and playing on sundays. I gaurantee he focuses in on the fact he knows what it takes to get to the next level a lot during recruiting. I think overall, this piece is a non-factor during recruiting.
