Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly can fit offense to team in '11 - ESPN

Andrew Nuss lost his position battle to "Chris Brock", according to this article.

Skip's take on the Irish. Very well-informed:

USF coach Skip Holtz offers scouting report on Notre Dame - YouTube

He's Lou's son, alright.

He's Lou's son, alright.

My thoughts exactly.

"Dee Dowis is probably the greatest player in the history of college football. I just hope he will autograph my clipboard after Air Force hangs 80 points on us this weekend."

LB Curtis Weatherspoon and CB Spencer Boyd are questionable with nagging injuries.

I hated to see Spencer transfer from ND. It's too bad he still might not get to play at the place he originally committed.

Skip Holtz is going to have them ready to play I dont know what that means as far as how close the game is going to be but I am a little nervous about this game

I am flat out worried about this game. We have had high hopes year in year out and I just don't what to **** the bed again.

I sense Daniels has to win the game for Florida and am reminded he threw two more interceptions then touchdowns last year. I expect him to roll out often, scramble around and throw some interceptions. In Crist's case all he has to do is execute the Notre Dame offense rather then carry it. I also expect if Daniels is having success rolling out Kelly will slip in Lynch and Tuitt to run him down.

So I was leaving my dentist appointment today and I decided to drive by Notre Dame just to see what was going on and it was pretty active today. There were tents set up all over the place and it gave me goose bumps because that only means one thing. Football is here!!! It was also nice to see the stadium, Touchdown Jesus, and the Golden
Dome.

Seriously delusional.. Now I'm out for blood, I hope Kelly runs the score up. I want to read their reactions on Sunday and smile.

Apparently Brian Kelly is a prick. That is about all I got from that. No real dialogue, about what I expected. Have to give it to them, they have real confidence. ha


EDIT: I actually found it pretty funny too, my fist part of this post sounded like I thought it was dumb. But I did get a kick out of it.

 

[caligold]

BTW...has there been any update with regard to BJ Daniels hamstring? Last year Rudy had just "tweak" that turned into season ending surgery. Seems to me if Daniels can't scramble then they really have no chance.

Bulls charge north to take on 16th-ranked Fighting Irish - KansasCity.com

"Being in coaching for 25 years, there haven't been many quarterbacks that I've been around that have that type of athleticism to turn and go play any position on the field athletically, but can then turn and throw the ball," says Holtz of Daniels, who will be under center despite a sore hamstring."

Not an official update on the hammy but all I could find that was recent.. Written 11 hours ago.

Well then I must say the first time he is dragged down from behind by any one of our defenders that might be all she wrote. Nice work! At the same time if he were to leave the game with a hammy injury it may be fodder for USF fans to make excuses.

B.J. Daniels Stats - South Florida Bulls - ESPN



He is an athlete to say the least. Denard? I think not. I don't worry to much about his scramble ability as I do his ability to maybe "extend" the play a second longer to make the throw we all expect him to eff up. He will make us nervous but not lose. PERIOD! You have to respect him but not fear him. I worry more on their DB's vs Crist. Check back with my thoughts when its half time and I have killed half a fifth of Sailor.


BTW ... I got a write up at work for taking off for Sat. Bull fans fired me up enough to make it priority. Boss said he can respect my honesty. He is a Michigan fan and said he will find my punishment in 2 weeks acceptable. LOL. Gotta love an azz kisser.

What a circle jerk.

Kelly's Bearcats beat their Bulls a few times and suddenly he's the anti-Christ.

Jim Harbaugh beat us the last two years and I have nothing but respect for the guy. Thank God he didn't take the Michigan job.

 

[D-BOE34]

Nice...

Can't take that mullet serious ...

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Pul-ease.... It's delicious.

Striking, Dangerous....Deadly....

A triple threat man to be sure.

Go Irish

NDatRivals via Twitter:

Obscure stat: Diaco D's 14-1 against QB's who end the season with less than 200 yards rushing. Over 200, Diaco's D 6-5. Small sample set.

Helps explain the losses to Michigan, Stanford, and Navy last year.

Exactly my thoughts.. Kelly owns them

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Feeling anxious about USF? Then check out these BJ Daniels stats.

He looks good against bad teams. He's not going to look good against our defense.

 

[BeauBenken]

I don't see Kelly being a prick. Cocky? Yes. The best always know they can beat you.

Not to mention he also studied political science so I mean...lol (that's my attempt at a politician joke)

These Bull fans are pretty damn optimistic. I hope we really whoop their asses.

 

[irishtrain]

What do you want Motta to say-he's proud of his team and he's looking forward to playing Mich. Simple as that. The rest is just gym talk or twitter bullshit. I still think this is a tough game for Notre Dame because of Holtz (which I've taken some crap for). Sat night I want to be wrong and will be the first to say I was wrong but I still think this game will shock some people. IF I am wrong watch out because they may be ready earlier than I expected to do some serious damage and put a run together. I think they 'are' preparing for Mich in the back of their minds and I do not see them losing to Mich. Man do I want to be wrong about this first game.
