I think Jack Swarbrick should retain Charlie Weis as the head coach. I will give my reasoning in a moment. I give Swarbrick a lot of credit. He has not come out and said anything during this time except to say the program will be evaluated at the end of the year. He also said the wins and losses are not the only measure of the football program (or any other sports program). That is someone I

First, I am not an ND fan, but I am from the Chicagoland area, and I have been following Hughes. The kid has looked good in my eyes, and I have seen him really move the pile when he gets the ball. Other than the fact that I don't like Charlie because he is pompous, the fact that he has not used Hughes as much as he should is my litmus test that Charlie is not a good coach. Keep C

Hey I'm from SoCal and a big ND fan. Live out by Loyola where Barr goes and Oaks Christian and l heard that Barr has committed to ND. This isn't official as no recruiting sites have it but UCLA picked up Malcom Jones the Oaks RB and another great RB Jordan James so Barr has decided to join his dad's alma mater. This isn't official but is still a great pickup as our team spirals downward

I was all over Weis last week on this board talking about let's FIRE HIM NOW. On Saturday afternoon I thought maybe I was a little to hard on the guy cause he is a good OC, and the team can score pts. Plus he went out and got the best DC he could find. I have to give Weis an A+ for trying, he did everything he could for this team and for ND. Then the game started lol, Not onl

So here were are again.. De Ja Vu all over again. ND starts hot and fades once October rolls around...
So what is it? What really is ND and Weis's problem...
Really its Management... What is up with the ND coaching structure? Who is the DC who is the assitant HC who answers to who on D? Too many Chiefs...
ND should have stayed the course with the 3-4. ND can't get

Jack Swarbrick,
Mr. Swarbrick show some stones and address the press and announce Charlie Weis is my head football coach and this is what we are going to do to challenge for a national championship year in and year out.
1) I am going to fire all coaches on the defensive side of the ball everybody including special team coaches.
2) I will hire a defe

I don't know about you but I'm not so sure I want Gruden here, I have nothing against him but he was never a head coach at the college level. Is that ok with you? I want a proven college head coach who took a garbage team and made them into a kick A** machine. To me that say's something. Sometimes these Pro coaches don't work out in College and I'm taken NO chances this time. You c

How do we return to the ranks of dominant teams in the near future? Here is my simple plan. The University puts up 8 million and finds about 50 angry alumni to finance the rest of the 18 million needed to pay off Charlei Weiss and send him packin. He's just not the right guy driving the bus. He has had plenty of time to show us that. He can recruit fairly well, but even wit

The Chicago Sun Times reported today that Bob Stoops has been rumored to be talking to the Irish about becoming the new coach. Although he did not confirm the reports he did not deny it. ESPN has also confirmed that contact has been made between the Irish and Stoops. With these latest developments what do the Irish faithful think? I for one would be happy with Stoops coming in some new blood would

Ok peeps, there has been a lot of conversation about how many games ND will win this season on a number of different threads from the ND Faithful & Hater Nation.
Come December, it’s always a talking point about who predicted what and who was right/wrong/off their rocker/etc. Instead of having everyone scowling

You guys all need to calm down about the Charlie Weis scenario. He isn't going anywhere, at least not anytime soon. The ND administration has invested far too much money in this brainiac and aren't going to abandon this project at this point. Urban Meyer is the one name that would send ND's administration to their pocketbooks and Weis out the door... and Meyer isn't going to leav

Weiss's problem isn't his defense, it is Weiss himself. He doesn't do what is required in order to succeed as a worthy or making of a good Head Coach, that is, bring the best out of his players, more than they even know they are. He is a proven offensive coordiantor and a failed Head Coach. I'm sorry to say this, but his appearence

I want to start this Thread by saying GOODBYE Weis and thanks for nothing. I backed him for a long time but I agree that its time for a change. This might be Weis's last game. Time to rebuild again. I cant wait for this season to end. The Players gave up on you.
