Coach Kelly will address the crowd sometime during the basketball game versus UCLA. Probably at halftime, I expected this to be far different from his PC. I am sure we will a glimpse of what kind of motivator he is.

Great!!!! I'm taking a guest... a UCLA grad that I battle against quite often in court. He doesn't school me in the court-room, however, my 10-2 2009 football prediction has caused me much grief.

10-2? More like 12-0 next year.

Kelly's been getting some serious "face time" this week. He's been making sports talk shows as frequently as a Hollywood celebrity hit the TV talk show when they have a new movie about to release. Kelly doesn't have much recruiting staff and no bowl team for the media to cover but he's getting ND's name (and his) out to the recruits (and fans).

Right now your a 6 and 6 team. Thats not good enough for you, and it certainly isnt going to be good enough for me.

I think he should open with that.

I think this will be the first time he is addressing the student body/fan base on a personal level. Whatever he says I'm sure it will be inspiring. How great would it be if his first motivational talk that led to a big upset wasn't even for the football team! Go Irish!!!

Kelly told the students to use the Christmas break to get in shape because they will be doing a lot of push-ups this season.

Clever!

The Lep will have to start working out with the LBs.

I thought "Hail to the Chief" was going to play after listening him speak.

I don't think Kelly needs a mike when he speaks. He is by far the loudest speaking coach we've had in my memory.

Well, at least my memory anyway.

I've started my push-up routine already.

For 5 years I sat in the seat immediately behind CW and Maura at BB games... with the remodel they move me back about 6 rows... :-(

Leana (usher) sat in the box next to CW and shoed people away... only allowing autographs during half-time. Got to know her after 5 years.

Instead of sitting next to me (as in old arena configuration) they moved Dr. Ferlich (team doctor in the home games at Joyce) in front of me 2 rows...

At UCLA game Ferlich was in CW's old seats... and Leana was protecting a block of 8 seats where Ferlich had started the season. She kept those seats conspiculously empty and when she said HI to me after the first half I pointed at the empty seats and she winked....

She sat at the end of the row looking up the aisle the whole game. No one ever showed.

However, now I'm even more psyched for the basketball season after signing day - Charlie rarely missed a game - hope BK follows suit.
