Weis Comments on ESPN Radio

[jiggafini19]

On whether or not he had fun this year: "No. This job is never fun for a guy like me, that's not how we approach it. Was it fun for people around me? I think so."

Brady Quinn: "He was able to pick up much more of the offense than we expected in Year 1. That helped a lot. The physical tools were already there, I had nothing to do with that. But his ability to pick up the offense enabled us to do more than we planned and results were obvious."

On the USC Game: "I thought it was a crummy game. I will always be remembered as the coach that lost that game. I don't like that. So, no, I will not be able to enjoy that game in the future."

That last quote: Can you honestly tell me that this team will lose two or more games next year?

One of the things I've noticed about Duke Basketball is even when they lose, they never get blown out. They make the other team work the entire 40 minutes to beat them. And they get the best recruits.

Notre Dame Football is heading in this direction. They may lose a game, but it will take a full 60 minutes and the outcome will be decided by less than 10 points.

The coaching, effort in recruiting and overall attitude are simply amazing and enough can't be said of it.

I am completely confident they will beat Ohio State.

C-dub said that last quote about beating OSU?

No, the last quote was about the USC game.

I am completely confident they will beat Ohio State. - This was me.

Outstanding! When was the last time you heard something described as "crummy". Losing is unacceptable to him. No moral victories, No 'we gave it our best but...'

A football season is too short to accept a loss. Every game is a battle in the NFL. Weis is bringing a professional atmosphere and attitude down to the college tier of football.

Notre Dame doesn't have the luxury of losing 3 or 4 games and still getting into a BCS game. I'm sure Florida State's suits are thrilled to be in a big bowl game, but I'm willing to bet that in that locker room there have been thoughts about what the hell happened to their season.

I would hate to be around Weis after an 8-3 season and a Gator Bowl bid. Hopefully we don't see very many of those.

The PSU - FSU game is going to be horrible! They should have a rule, that if a conference winner has four losses, a third at large team will be selected to play in the BCS.

PSU is going to win this game by four touchdowns!

Agreed.

Second point, agree they'll win but hope it's by more. I think it will be around 2 TDs.
