Weis play calling is abysmal. What do we have if we don't have him calling plays? This is beyond mediocre. Let's all hang in there, this all will be righted soon enough!<BR/><BR/>Go Irish!nd68noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13626080.post-41309503280052576742008-12-12T09:10:00.000-05:002008-12-12T09:10:00.000-05:00How many points can the Irish put up? Will they be uninspired? Will Weis stand there with that blank face? What will he have to say after the game? I can't wait to find out.BAM BAMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13626080.post-25883839051189594132008-12-10T20:31:00.000-05:002008-12-10T20:31:00.000-05:00I dread the Hawaii game. It is hard to believe, based on the previous 12 games (won and lost) that ND will survive the islands and the Rainbow Warriors. This "dysfuntional family" doesn't have the focus or fortitude IMHO to end the season on a high note.<BR/>They sure as hell do not have a "patriarch" can coach them up to the task. Oink, indeed.Southern Irish Gentlemannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13626080.post-35243381789008739052008-12-10T20:13:00.000-05:002008-12-10T20:13:00.000-05:00Oink to you, although I don't think the schedule is soft next year. I'm betting that Charlie has this team together for the Hawaii game, with ND winning impressively by 21. He will unload a few of his assistants, bring his expertise down to the college level, hunk up the O and D lines, get Clausen thinking and throwing like a Heisman candidate, and end up in a BCS bowl next season.Win With Weisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13626080.post-6962815355881364732008-12-10T16:55:00.000-05:002008-12-10T16:55:00.000-05:00From this vantage point it appears that Weis can't win with players that are seniors or freshman. The youth excuse gets a little tiresome doesn't it? Let's face it we expect better at ND and therefore better from Weis. We should! Seniors or not, a great coach can find a way(s) to win.SackAttacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13626080.post-85755058016634422252008-12-10T15:54:00.000-05:002008-12-10T15:54:00.000-05:00Say what you want, but read the article by Lou Somoygi from Blue &amp; Gold and each ND fan needs to learn some patience. I think we can all agree Lou, Ara, Frank, Knute were all GREAT coaches, agree? Here is a little fact for you, NO coach, not a single one has EVER won without a senior laden team, why should we hold Weis to a different standard. To those who say he should have been fired, there is a bit of a history lesson for you. Weis is a tireless worker and recruits well. He just needs to replace a few staff members.Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02224903513637691473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13626080.post-83647336785229722442008-12-10T13:20:00.000-05:002008-12-10T13:20:00.000-05:00No argument from this perch. Despite all the experience among the players and the so-called "expertise" among the coaching staff, especially CW, the Irish are not a good team. They are a bad one. I don't know much about Hawaii, but I'm sure they are better the Notre Dame. OINK!ND Heartlandnoreply@blogger.com
