Kelly: Keep ND Football Independent

[The Polish Irishman]

South Bend Tribune: Notre Dame football: Kelly votes for independence

“From my standpoint, being the head football coach at Notre Dame, there's nothing better than being an independent football school,” he said, eliciting a roar from the gathering of roughly 300 people.

“I know you're hearing all these rumors about the Big Ten and all these other things, but let me tell you one thing, the history ... the tradition of Notre Dame football is steeped in that independence.”

Yes, yes, yes.

I'm neutral on this conference stuff... but reading his quote... my translation... WE aren't joining and he knows that, otherwise he would not have said it.

As much as I liked Charlie this guy is just a plain old STUD. I get the feeling that when time comes to push it he will have players ready to go at crunch time. Man I feel better about all this conference crap now. Thank you Brian Kelly for a little peace. He knows what the answer is---win football games.

He hasn't proven shit yet. Let's make sure we break the shells and uni's out before "crowning his ass".

You just hired a coach that will prove to be up there with the great ones. He'll have his team ready the first game.
