Brian Kelly Revisited (RIP BOZO)

[GoldenChild]

Who do you all want to be the new HC, if BK gets fired?

Tom Herman would be nice

 

[Irish_I_HadHair]

BK has to back the defensive staff today, because his failures were on full display.

They were physically beaten on both sides of the ball... by Duke. 4.1 yards per carry vs 5 for Duke.
They couldn't tackle and the run blocking was average. At home. Against Duke.

He's a spazz and his quarterbacks have always been tense under him.

I may have lost faith in Kelly. He needs a change in defensive staff...

He can't continue the rhetoric he has about the defense and coaching. It isn't coach speak, it just shows disconnect with reality and alienates the fans. Be real with us.

 

[yankeehater]

Kyle Whittingham might be a good one. His teams play tough.

Honestly. Someone who believes in power football. I don't think it will ever be possible for us to "out-athlete" the elite teams. We can recruit big-time OL and TEs, yet we love to spread it out and throw it all over (but not to our TEs).

The press conference is making me lose more faith than the actual game.

 

[loomis41973]

100+ missed tackles.

Soft players all around

If BVG had a shred of dignity he would resign without in talking to Kelly. Fall on your sword before your kid loses what respect he might have left for you. Maybe you tried but you're not very good. Don't see this happening without Swarbrick letting him know he would get the remaining undeserved dollars on his contract. What a waste of talent. Kelly WILL be on the hot seat if he doesn't dump this POS sorry excuse for a coach.

BK shouldn't be the coach next week. Before this game I thought BK had elevated the program but would never be the guy to take it to the next level, now it seems he will leave the program no better than he found it. Duke is one of the worst P5 teams in the country. We have played 4 games and lost 3 without having played a single good team. This team looks worse every week. We are undisciplined in every facet of the game. This is year 7 of the BK era it is clear what the program will be under BK there is absolutely no defense of this coaching staff.

After watching the post game interview, I'm not sure if he actually was watching the game. He kept talking about the strides the defense made. We gave up over 35 F'ng ponts to DUKE?

Duke is better than you give them credit for.

But, yes this team has lost all confidence. And the coaching staff have put them in bad positions.

The team also has no leaders. The captains seem very soft to me. Players are not holding other players accountable:

As bad as it sounds at least we did not win today. We did not deserve to win we did not deserve as if this program is on the right track. It's better for us to see things for what they are and hopefully the powers-that-be will make the appropriate changes moving forward.

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

BK is going out with his boots on.

 

[OCIrish]

If you are watching us probably about to lose to Duke in year 7 of our coaches tenure and you aren't even questioning whether BK is the right coach you are a fan of the wrong team. This is Notre Dame.

Fucking preach!!!!!!!

 

[DCirishfan]

Fucking preach!!!!!!!

Amen!

 

[loomis41973]

The coach won't matter. Between academics and culture it makes players soft....Softer than cotton...softer than silk. Not sure how it happens...but it's a real fact.

 

[DCirishfan]

The whole University Administration and athletic department have to be on the same page moving forward as to what are the expectations. I believe that with slight changes in a meeting of the minds with the right coach we can still win a title but everything has to work in synchronicity

 

[Meatloaf]

Finished Stranger Things and came back to this shit show. BK can kick fucking rocks, he's a crumb bum.

 

[calvegas04]

+1 I don't think ND would get Herman

 

[ACamp1900]

Chicken shit.

I,...... 'Sigh'.... Agree with koon... This is chicken shit bs.

 

[DCirishfan]

It's a definite Crossroads No Doubt without the proper recruits we're not going to be able to consistently perform to a top 10 standard. University of Notre Dame has to decide what's important and it may not be the decision I like I'm not sure I'll ever be satisfied with not having the hope of winning a national championship but the reality is I may have to make that choice.

 

[DCirishfan]

Kizer made some mistakes and has certainly played better games but if BK thinks the solution is to change the QB he is a fool.

At this point I agree 100% when they should get all the playing time this season is effectively over and he is our future if there's any help Hope of salvaging this era he is it.

 

[DCirishfan]

He already has his guaranteed money

 

[NDgradstudent]

Yeah... I think I'm done with you guys for a while. I got a lot of good things going on in my life and this place is a wasteland. This thread is just one of many knee jerk atrocities on this board that make me sick and tired of conversing on here. So I simply won't.

It's time we start calling these people enablers.

 

[irishff1014]

Duke may be in a Power 5 Conference, but they are far from a Power 5 team!

He has also lost to Tulsa,USF,Navy,Duke, Northwestern. Yea that list is horrible.

 

[dang227]

Notre Dame has lost five straight game to Power 5 teams: Stanford, Ohio State, Texas, MSU, Duke.

 

[ickythump1225]

Glad I was traveling back from Utah when this game took place and just found out. I will say that this is it, BK should be gone.

That is my initial reaction at least, but I've come to realize that when it comes to it, Notre Dame does not have a commitment to winning. Fire BK, and get who? That is the state of ND. BK is absolutely in the upper tier of coaches we can get and I have little doubt if he went to real power 5 school he would be back in the NCG again within 5 seasons.

I understand ND has a commitment to academics and all of that but that doesn't stop Standford from churning out consistently tough and quality teams. It is also frustrating considering ND seems ready and willing to throw it's (alleged) Catholic purpose and mission under the bus when it comes to supporting modernist gender theory and pro-choice politicians (all while hiding behind the guise of academic and intellectual independence and integrity) but won't budge an inch to put a quality product on the field. And lets be clear, the football team has made ND a household name. The football team made ND famous and highlighted it's academic program making it a top tier destination for kids who normally wouldn't want to eschew going to a coastal school for South Bend, Indiana. The football team saved it from being another run of the mill private Catholic college like St. Thomas in Minnesota or USD out here in San Diego.

I'm not asking the university to sell its soul (it has already done that on the academic front by completing destroying any Catholic integrity they had left), I'm asking for it to be realistic and either A) allow the team to be competitive or B) just admit that it is not interested in that and level with the fans.

 

[ACamp1900]

Wait, we chased wooly off??..... Quick everyone post real negative shit so he never comes back.....

 

[irishff1014]

My biggest issues are nothing has changed with BK. 7 years we still have a ton of turn overs, we still have bad special teams, we still can't get up to play football, and tonight he takes up for his buddy DC again and throws Kiser under the bus. And by no means did Kiser have his best game but he also still lead the team in rushing because our run game is so bad.
