LOL, I am talking about parting ways.

Just rumors that have been floating around.

It makes sense. Same thing happened to Weis.

Brian Kelly's record at Notre Dame 59-31
Bo Pelini's record at Nebraska 67-27

50/50 is my educated guess as to whether BK is our coach come Tuesday morning. Gun to my head I think he is gone.

Pretty sure Herman said the same thing yesterday. Kelly said the same thing while at Cincinnati as well. ,could be true, but that's coach speak.

Ya I get that apparently Jack was in the room and smiled and nodded
To it

I keep waffling. Think he might actually be back now unless the other shoe drops tomorrow.

You just want Fleck here....

That would be the fitting ending to a season full of disappointments; the ultimate disappointment. But I, too, think he'll be back.

sharksamardzija8345 · Nov 26, 2016

He's only lost less than 5 games twice in his tenure at ND (I'm still counting the wins in 2012). We say he averages about 10-3 or 9-4 based on that one outlier season, but if not for 2012 skewing the mean, the median is 8-5. He's an 8-5 coach at Notre Dame, nothing more. Time to throw in our hand for a new set of cards.

dkuhn12 · Nov 26, 2016

If Kelly is retained, who do you honestly think he retains or let's go on the staff? My guesses:

Sanford - stay and should call all plays

Denbrock - stays but just coaches WRs only

Denson - stays

Heistand - time for him to go I think honestly

Booker - must go

Must hire D.C. outside

Gilmore - think he needs to go

Elston - stays

Lyght - stays on but needs to step it up next year

Hudson - stays on as analyst

I think you have to keep Hiestand. I'm not at all sold in Sanford as you all are. I would be fine with letting him go.

Also, Long mo bye bye!

Why? The QB position has been a mess ever since Kelly took over supervising the defense. Logic says that Sanford has taken on a larger role in preparing the QBs at the same time that the position started to really go downhill. I'm not saying Sanford should be gone, but I don't think we should just give him a pass simply because he was a hot name when we got him.

Forgot Longo and yes he needs to go. I think heistand is a on the fence guy because I feel he develops one really good guy a year but never generates a solid all around front. Can't stand seeing your captain left tackle jump offsides constantly

I feel Sanford hasn't gotten a real chance to show what he can do. Kelly is so loyal to denbrock and I just feel you give the reigns completely over to Sanford and see what he can do. Wasn't bad at Boise state...

90% Kelly is coming back. I wouldn't get your hopes up about him being gone.

irisheyes · Nov 26, 2016

I wouldnt mind seeing diaco back. He hasnt really put on a show over in Connecticut .

Cackalacky · Nov 26, 2016

I would love to see BK gone with Fleck at HC and Venables as the highest paid asst HC/DC. That being said the way 2016 is going, BK will be back and we have to watch at least one more year of this JV bullshit

Jimmy3Putt · Nov 26, 2016

I'm ready for a change.

Wingman Ray · Nov 26, 2016

Program is really going to suffer if BK is back next year. Going to lose a lot of people and a lot of ND interest.

4-8 to 7-5. Congrats.

I think Kelly will get cut loose, and I won't disagree with that. But, before Kelly fired BVG and had to take over the defense, the offense was averaging 500 yards and 40 points a game. IF Kelly stays, and they are able to bring in a high quality Defensive Coordinator, I think ND will be ok. It certainly should be able to compete for 10+ wins. But if you can't find a high quality DC, then I think you have to move on completely with the coaching staff.

I thought I heard that Kelly and Longo are literally best friends. No way he lets him go.

why not take out this year as skewing the mean?

LSU is expecting that Aranda will stick around with Orgeron.

So I guess keep the offensive staff, except Booker.

Denbrock head of recruiting/WR/TE. Sanford QB/OC? How does that sound.

I really think the team needs a full time Special teams coach.
