Found this on Google, when you search Notre Dame News

Unconfirmed sources within the university have leaked that Notre Dame will fire Charlie Weis as head football coach at season's end. The sources named Jon Gruden and Cincinnati's Brian Kelly as Notre Dame's top candidates to replace Weis.


What do you think?

I am so worried about this crap, I feel like I am gonna puke, I am just as upset as anyone but firing him now, the season will be lost for good then, Let it play out, then if need be let him go, but if they fire him but let him coach out and they win their next three and a bowl game, then what? Does he still need to go if he wins out?

There is a 0% chance of Charlie getting fired before the season is over.

Charlie isnt getting fired until season's end. But even if we win out and make the Gator bowl...that is will below expectations with the talent and schedule we have. He's gone, regardless what happens.

All I am saying is if this crap gets leaked what is the team gonna think, well the guy who recruited us and made us promises is gone and now where do we go, It just messes everything up, I live in TitleTown U.S.A with the winningest highschool program ever and they just fired their coach and they are headed to the playoffs next week, but they are letting him coach untill it's over, that is stupid and a lot of the kids have already quit or gotten into trouble. The ids look up to this guy and some have been with him like 5 years so this is only gonna hurt the team and the progress we have made, AND WE HAVE MADE PROGRESS, you can't deny this!

Wow, there is a rumor that Weis will get fired and Gruden and kelly are the possible candidates? Is this from today or last year at this time?

Any firing would take place after the Stanford game, and if we are 9-3 I don't see how you can possibly fire a 9-3 coach whose team is ranked in the top 20 and going to a New Years Bowl.

I'm not trying to be negative here, but let's be honest. We will not be 9-3 after the Stanford game. 8-4 at best, with 7-5 more likely. I see no reason why this team will prove me wrong by beating Pitt or Stanford until they can play a full 60 minutes and not just a great 4th quarter.

You are right. The games should be cancelled

Why even play the games, right? So we racked up over 500 yards of offense and just made a couple mistakes, that is way worst than being completely inept at offense in 2007 and not even getting 75 yards of rushing... you guys are all idiots if you can't see the uptrend of ND football over the past 5 years

I'm as hopeful as the rest of us, so ya'll can be sarcastic all you want. The reality is that it doesn't look good. I'll still root for my team and I'll support whatever coach we have, but I'm not going to fool myself for a minute into thinking we are truly better than Pitt or Stanford. If you can point to a real reason why we should beat them, then go ahead. I doubt you can support it with any validity.

I agree, lets just fire Charlie and cancel the season.....I would bet a lot of money we will win 9 games and Charlie will be back to make a run at a title....Call me whatever you want, but I believe this.

It should be noted I didn't call for any coach change or extreme measure. I just don't think we will beat Pitt. Lighten up already.

BC is at least as good a team as Stanford, and maybe not as far behind Pitt as people might think. We beat BC, so why would you think that we couldn't beat Pitt and Stanford?

yes. 3-16 against teams with a .500 record or better is an uptrend.yeh,thats the kind of guy we need leading us.

BC doesn't have 1 win that would be considered a win over a quality opponent. I'm not saying we can't win, I'm saying I don't think we will win. This doesn't mean I will quit watching my team. It doesn't mean that they should just throw in the towel. It simply means I, personally, (just my opinion) don't think we will win. And let me just say, it completely sucks ass that I feel this way. I don't like it, but it's my reality.

Guys chill out already, he didn't say that we CAN'T beat them, he just said he didn't think that we were going to beat them. To be honest I think there is a good chance we could lose one if not both of those games. If DRI had said last Friday that he thought Navy was going to beat us, people would have ripped him a new one, well guess what THEY DID BEAT US! I don't recall him saying he "wants" us to lose so just relax.
