Hair: Nice, feathery. Small downgrade from Diaco, but negligible in the grand scheme of things

Mustache: Pencily, porn-starry. Looks like John Holmes son. Definite upgrade

Skin: Looks like he smokes a pack of Winstons daily. That's the kind of guy you want to go into battle behind. Upgrade.

DO WANT

Ryan,

When I googled him to find a pic, there were quite a few pics of Uncle Rico. Well done sir:

I was looking at his Georgia days, wondering if I'd see 0's against division II schools and high scores against tier 1 schools. Not the case-seems solid and more important IMO, consistent.

If true, I'm behind the hire (Kelly let's out a sigh of relief).

Hope you all don't get too attached to him... He's going to be the new DC at Detroit... with BK

Interesting note on Brian Van Gorder, reportedly ND's new defensive coordinator. He was a college teammate of Paul Longo at Wayne State.

I'm unfortunately being relatively serious. Chet Coppock recently tweeted that BK will be interviewing as early as Monday with Detroit. And reports out of Detroit are that the owners focused on the 3 coaches... O'Brien, BK, and Dungy....

So why not introduce the new DC publicly?

If he's not going to be ND's DC.

If Kelly goes to Detroit (which won't happen) its time to block this site from all my devices and see a therapist.

If he actually meets with Detroit, I expect him to be gone. He's their #1 guy. Maybe actually have the cheaper buyout between him and O'Brien.

From everything I've heard from everyone, I don't expect him to interview with Detroit. They're probably wrong though. I guess we'll see... that would reallllly suck.

Guys....when we're talking DC's here, the most important this is what? The hair, of course. I'm not impressed, he better step up his game.

TJ from II says he doesn't see Kelly leaving ND for awhile. He's got things set up nicely going forward.

I hope he is correct. Bring in a solid DC and get rolling. I'll feel ok when these NFL discussions are put to bed and the staff is in tact and in place w all positions filled.
