I wouldn't put much into this "report/rumor".... Gruden is no better than Weiss really, bottom line is Notre Dame is a tough place to recruit top talent because of the academic requirements placed on the students.

are the standards that much higher than other's? I always thought it was because Notre Dame has become irrelevant in college football, not in a conference, and been bad for so long, they cannot get decent players. If you have a choice say between going to LSU, Florida, USC or Notre Dame, you know Notre Dame is not going to be your choice.

Well, they might go back on their word, lie and fire an alum. Then they'd be like every other college football factory: which they emphatically claim time and again THEY ARE NOT. But I don't think they'll do that. Not because of their moral values or ethics, but because it's simply too expensive. Plus, if they really ask around they'll find that Gruden has a skeleton or three in his closet. (see drunk driving)

Ultimately, Fatty hasn't done any better than Willingham or even Scrub Davie

Where's Gerry Faust when you need him

Weis needs to be given another year.

As much as Weis gets bagged on I tend to believe its the players and not the Coach in South Bend because Weis is a heck of a playcaller.

Maybe when he knows the defensive playcalls, when he doesnt, he has proven to be mediocre AT BEST.

People hate on my Cowboys, the HC, OC and the WR, and they hate on my Fighting Irish, Weis is not going anywhere, Gruden probably will end up in KC, or on a network until next year or the year after.

What's next? Hating on my Cornhuskers?


LOL. Dude you're 3 favorite teams are the exact same three I root for.

Cowboys, Huskers, Irish.

Awesome.

It got out that several alums were willing to together put up the 6-8 million it was supposed to cost to buy out Charlie but the President and AD said no.
They said that if they wanted Charlie gone then money was no problem.
Good sign is that Charlie tossed the O line coach and the new guy supposedly is really good at lighting fire under those that need it. We will see.
