My 6-week old son just puked and shit on himself.

Even he is disgusted by BVG.

AND he is still more put-together than BVG.

Okay, if BVG is still employed next week, regardless of what happens the rest of this game, I'm officially on board with firing BK with him. Dump this season and offer top ten money to Tom Herman.

Enough is enough, BK needs to jump the BVG ship or go down with it,....

This. I've supported BK most of the time, but above is how I feel also.

Honestly if BVG is standup, he resigns at the end of the game regardless... With his resume he'll get hired somewhere within 6months....

Doesn't matter what happens in the second half. Need to entirely clean house. Maybe keep a few assistants like Sanford, Denson, Hiestand.

I have NEVER seen game plans and preparation this bad.

We're averaging 2.8 YPC. At this point, IDC if Hiestand stays. Seems great at developing a few individual talents, but doesn't get the entire 5 to gel. When do you see us put hats on the 2nd level? I don't.

We would be fools to fire Elliott.

It starts and ends with BVG. He has to go.

Hiestand? We cant even get a run game going. And they are only decent with the Pass Protect

My plea to BVG...

My plea to BVG...

Coach,

It's time to realize that your tenure at Notre Dame has run it's course and this program is no longer in need of your service. Thank you for your enthusiasm, but your defenses have frankly been awful and have comprised the opportunity of some good football players to let their abilities shine. Your scheme may be great in your mind, but it simply is not translating to the field. I appreciate your effort in trying to create ways to fluster offenses, but quite the opposite has happened. We are being shredded by subpar offenses whose athletes cannot hold a candle to our own.

Today, we are facing an offense that has scored less than 30 points against the likes of Wake Forest and Northwestern. However, this same offense has scored 28 points in just 30 minutes of football against your defense. In light of your inability to keep Duke out of the endzone, we as a fanbase beg you to step down following this performance and allow our program to go in a more positive direction.

Sincerely,
Notre Dame Football Fans Everywhere

This is an abomination. I really cannot believe how shitty this coaching staff has done. Something has got to be seriously wrong within that locker room.

I mean technically they only scored 21 on his defense.

Get the man an extension.

One bad season is a stupid reason to fire someone. He had a great 12/13/14/15. If you think otherwise you don't know football.

Without box scores in front of me, it always seems like we struggle to run the ball when we go up against a legit defense. Based on recruiting, we should have a Top 5 OL every year.

He's a good coach and a hell of a recruiter but IMO he is not great. I'd expect a new HC to keep him, but I wouldn't really care one way or the other.

Agree. Probably the best on the staff. And a great recruiter. The OL is the hardest subgroup on the field to get to gel.

Does anyone even know Elliott's role nowadays? Haven't heard anything about him since he moved off-field besides with triple option prep last year.

The play calling on offense sometimes doesn't do HH any favors. Instead of running deep routes or slant routes, spread those good defenses sideline to sideline. Once you can do that, the middle starts to open and running gets easier.

But if a new coach comes in and doesn't like him then oh well. Something has to be done.

True every year we recruit the best OL,every year we say that will be our strength and every year we can't run

win or lose, does BVG have a job monday? I dont know the ins and outs of all this but surely the absolute lack of defense and pressure last week on ND to step up the defense(which didnt happen today) has to force the hand of the people in charge. I dont have a name of who'd step into the position until they find a replacement but its not like you can do much worse. Can you?

I do not know the in's and out's either but I don't see how he keeps his job. The defense just flat out sucks.

This is the worst ND defense I have ever seen.... This is not knee jerk, I've sat and thought about it,.... They are worse than 06, 07, 08, 09,... Worst I've ever seen...
