BK stays at ND

[johnnykillz]

I think its generally all on the head coach to pick his staff. He is then ultimately responsible for the staff he puts together.

There has to be a "black-balled" list to some extent.

AKA CW as OC.

I would think.

 

[irisheyes]

Not concerned BK is ND

3 years is all it take to be ND? Id certainly say what he is doing now isnt something id ever expect out of lou holtz, a classic Notre Dame man.

 

[cincy gold]

How does this stuff work? When a coach goes to a new school does he bring his staff with him? The staff he has now, were they with him at cincy?

i know for sure diaco was with him. that may be it.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Alright boys. Gonna go try to (unsuccessfully I'm sure) get some midnight delight before Mrs. Steelhead goes to bed. Stay loose, and keep the home fires burning. Xoxo.

Doing my best Nate Silver impression and aggregating all of the info out there it sounds like ND is not giving him everything he is looking for or a deal would already be done. It could be that they never intend to either. It's also important to remember that th Eagles who have interviews scheduled into next week seem to have clearly not offered him the job yet so currently it doesn't seem like he even has the option to leave.

The most troublesome thought is ND playing hardball and being willing to let Kelly walk away to simply go with Martin at a discounted price. IMO this would be a horrendously poor decision.

Hired by him paid by school?

 

[clashmore_mike]

Diaco, Elston, Molnar, and Longo were on his staff in 2009.

 

[Pa Golden Tate Fan]

I talked to an alum who knows people who have great knowledge of the situation and this alum said he is not worried at all. The person also said they are confident Kelly will be Irish for some time.

 

[clashmore_mike]

Hired by him paid by school?

yeah pretty much. I would assume there is a final background check done by the school before actually signing them to a contract, but the head coach is responsible for selecting assistants to fit in to his coaching philosophy.

Chip or Brian?

Cuz supposedly there's a Sociology teacher at ND who says Chip will be ND's coach next year. I mean that's practically from the horse's mouth.

ugh. while I wouldn't be upset with Martin, I would be upset if that's how we got to that point.

 

[Akron Irish]

Something needs to get done and soon.
If BK does come back, I believe Diaco owes him a ball tag.

Nurture vs. nature.

The angry red Kelly vs. the premature ejaculating Kelly.

One short, one not so much.

Crap, this may possibly keep out of the running as the next OC at ND.

LMAO...

Amen.

If he reads some of the posts on here he will be telling all of us to pack sand.

Sounds more like a sociological experiment by a sociology professor ha.

If he reads some of the posts here, he's gone already.

Are you really that important to you?

Brian.

 

[RuntheBall]

Bed time for me. Same time tomorrow guys?

 

[cincy gold]

my hope is kelly announces he is staying with nd before the eagles hire a coach. it would look like **** if he came back and we all knew he wanted the job in philly. then, hopefully we wont have to deal with this next season

Rolling!

 

[Buster Bluth]

Chuck Martin would be a fine, but yeah I'd be really disappointed.

Charlie Strong is another guy I'd want Swarbrick to look at strongly, if Kelly were to do the unthinkable.

Thx Lax. I've seen many references about the money (for BK and staff). Is just me or is ND cheap? We hear soooo much about the endowment, TV Contract, and the new ND hats we all bought this year. Can it possibly be about money? ND picking a coach at a discounted price? It's gotta be the other items discussed on this tread...not money.

 

[Ogretoes]

Truth be told I was thing of you.

Or, maybe they just don't like being railroaded by a 3rd year coach.

Let him walk... Big boy games being played up in this hizzy. If he's got the apples to play hardball against the University of Notre Dame, let him feel the heat back. Put the pressure on. He's no freaking guarantee to land the Philly job.

This has nothing to do with more money for his boys...it has to do with his ego getting stroked. It's becoming very obvious. My opinion, of course.

Well thanks. Do trolls and ogres have anything in common, I mean besides foot fetishes?

Are you joking?
