Fire Charlie

[Fire Charlie]

Yeah... fire him...

Losing to Syracuse is a disgrace. I dont care how bad we are.

 

[Irishlew]

i agree

 

[NDFan78]

I don't want to hear anyone try to convince me that Weis should keep his job. FIRE HIM!!!

 

[fortwayne_nd]

Yeah... fire him...

Losing to Syracuse is a disgrace. I dont care how bad we are.

Best first post in board history. "Nasty!!"

 

[Fire Charlie]

Im so tired of this bullshit. Charlie Weis has not won with his recruits! He won with Brady Quinn, Walker, Samardjia... all of Willingham's guys. Where the hell is all the talent he supposedly is raking in?

 

[Senoj13]

Do you think today really was coaching or was it lack of heart and taking the opponent for granted?

 

[TripleDomer]

Another disgusting display

Another disgusting display

Charlie has got to go.

 

[NDFan78]

Coaching!

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

Do you think today really was coaching or was it lack of heart and taking the opponent for granted?

Could be a combination of all three.

 

[jakerbluegold]

I cannot believe the Irish lost to Syracuse. If Charlie isn't fired it's a travesty. I've been rooting for him and trying to be positive, but this is too much to bear.

 

[Fire Charlie]

Could be a combination of all three.

Aka: Bad coaching.

I want to punch Charlie Cheeseburger in the face repeatedly. He is an absolute fraud. The ND admin are just as moronic as he is. He is totally clueless as a college head coach. He has Ron Powlus coaching Qbs. He has Michael Haywood as OC and RBs coach. Both of these guys are completely useless.

 

[Senoj13]

I have posted on this board and blasted Charlie in the past, but I can't hang it on him today. It didnt matter what he called. This guys just didn 't give a shit today.

 

[Steve]

yeah, i wasn't on the fire charlie wagon, but now....

 

[NDbrad]

I agree with NDFan78. He has to go!!!!!

 

[Irishwino7]

its best for everyone involved that he step down

 

[wahoo]

He can recruit but this year is proof he can't coach!

 

[WaveDomer]

Dude, that is coaching. If you can't get players up for a game. If your team takes someone for granted, that's coaching. This isn't tennis. The buck stops somewhere.

 

[Catsudon]

it's not just coaching... the players have no heart... and the fans booed us AND threw f*&king snowballs at the players.

 

[Fire Charlie]

Over/Under: The amount of money Weis gets paid to leave?

 

[Irishlew]

keep Charlie as a recruiter, hire a new coach

 

[WaveDomer]

You guys are missing what college coaching is. College coaching is inspiring 19 year olds to bleed. It's getting them fired up to play Mount Saint Mary's. This isn't the pros where guys make it to that level and know what heart it. A college coach needs to teach heart and grit. Don't hang this on the players.

 

[fishbain19]

If it's not just coaching, but the players as some of you mention, then Notre Dame as a culture, attracts or develops total pussies. It's the been the same story through the Davie-Willingham-Weis era.

I have been one of Charlie's biggest fans on this board. Any of you that have read my posts will recognize that. I will not take any personal shots at him or his assistants. But today was it for him. You can say that the players played with no heart and they took Syracuse for granted, but that is a DIRECT REFLECTION of the head coach.

I just dont think Charlie can motivate 18-22 year old kids.

I see us getting blasted by USC, and come Monday December 1st, Charlie will be fired. A national search will ensue. The seniors will want to play in the Sun Bowl, where Jon Tenuta will coach us on an interim basis. This will be 2004 all over again.

I think Charlie is a great man who is a great representative of our University, he is just not a college head coach.

I am not using my anger of today's game to influence this post. Quite the contrary, I think today is the day that we did turn the corner, we will just have someone else lead us.

 

[The Polish Irishman]

I agree...he must go

 

[PADOMERNUT]

keep Charlie as a recruiter, hire a new coach

please dont even waste comments like this, he will never be just our recruiter. he will go back to the nfl and be an assistant again

 

[Senoj13]

I will renew a previous question. If not Weis, then who? Does anyone really want this job? Or will we continue to go through this 3 year crap of impatience?

 

[lucky]

USC will put 50 on us!!!!! he's got to go.....yesterday

 

[BeatSC]

Can anyone point to any areas that CW has demonstrated some competent coaching?

A few plays here and there on special teams but yet special teams should have won this one for us today (botched FG not PK's fault). Even the D can't claim competence after choking when it counts. Syracuse has been outsocred in the 4th Quarter by a margin of 5 to 1 and we get outsocored 14-0?

CW needs to go and ASAP.

We need to do our best to salvage the recruits and start the damage control now!

BTW, how many times can I vote?

Been sayin' it. Fire the man.
