No Need To Ask, Charlie, The Bell Tolls For You
Notre Dame lost to the Naval Academy again!
Are you kidding me?
Let's hope Charlie Weis can guide the Irish to wins over Pitt, UConn, and Stanford--however unlikely that appears judging from his onfield mentoring to date.
Then, before a lesser bowl game--if that is in the cards: Fire Him!
Give Verducci a shot at running the team for that one game.
Whether they finish the regular season 9-3, 6-6, or whatever, ND is never going the final distance, a national championship, with the not-so-college-football-Weisman at the helm.
Let's take him at his word upon taking the head coaching duties: "If we don't win a national championship in five years, fire me."
So, Jack Swarbrick, do it.
Look, we've watched the games, listened to Weis after victory or defeat, reviewed his record and rhetoric, hear the cries of pained Irish faithful, and read the myriad fact sheets that add up to embarrassment under his leadership.
The Jersey Guy just doesn't have it for the South Bend (indeed, college) venue. Plain and simple! He'll enjoy the beach life of South Carolina as one of its wealthiest residents.
Fan the country for a big-name, big-time guy with a proven record of wins and respect as a head coach, who also can pick a staff that develops its players into champions, not naysayers and apologists.
Believe me, a guy like this won't have trouble recruiting top-notch talent, who are also top-notch students.
Go Irish!

I am on the bandwagon.
All Aboard!!
So true! ND will never win a NC with Weis. It won't happen. Isn't that the objective? To win the NC and to compete for one every year. Changes are needed and ones that need to be well thought out unlike previous changes.
The stats overwhelmingly show that Weis isn't getting it done. We are not currently the ND team that we want to be and there are reasons that such is the case. The repeated failure to locate the right individual to be the HC at ND is atrocious. Weis should never have been given a 10 year contract, and really is it hard to think and say that he probably shouldn't have been hired in the first place??!!. When you think of the HC at ND, what do you think of? What defines being the HC at ND?
Look at the record, read the legacy of Frank Leahy--he is the definition of what a ND HC should be.
The Irish are a mess under Weis. What more is there to say? When are we going to get it right? ND deserves better than this.
