Comments on: Fourth Quarter Meltdown Dooms Irish https://dev.ndnation.com/fourth-quarter-meltdown-dooms-irish/ The Independent Voice of Notre Dame Athletics Fri, 11 May 2018 16:41:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Fulk's Ghost https://dev.ndnation.com/fourth-quarter-meltdown-dooms-irish/#comment-22556 Thu, 30 Nov 2017 17:26:38 +0000 https://dev.ndnation.com/?p=6339#comment-22556 Face the facts – it’s all bad. Dumb coaching. Middling athletic players with no grit. Flaccid Irish. They will usually be top 25, occasionally top 10 and never a champion. Stanford saved them from another epic embarassment in a big bowl.

The emporer has no clothes.

However if you get rid of him then you better know the next guy will definitely be better than Kelly and have a proven track record of success. David Shaw of Stanford is better than Kelly but would not leave, Stanford, when he went to school. Give me some names!

And yet all those players were considered great gets when they were recruited. I wonder what happened.

So at what point does an alleged lack of ability reflect on their coach’s inability to teach them properly?

To understand how bad the Irish TE’s are relative to Dave Casper, do yourself a favor, and Google “Dave Casper, Hall of Famer, 125 years of Irish Football, Moment #073.” For as much as everyone wants to trash Wimbush, just look at what Joe-Mo-mentum had at TE versus what Brandon has. It’s boyz versus a man, … and not in a good way, …, for poor Brandon.

If our receivers could actually catcher-the-football-in-the-rye, we would be a shoo-in for the playoff, and Wimbush would be a shoo-in for the Theismann. Chase Claypool has the worst hands in Notre Dame history, followed not far behind by Nic “I” Wisher “I could catch a pass that hit my fingertips.” This isn’t the old days when guys like Dave Caspar the Friendly Ghost caught everything thrown within 3 time zones.

Jenkin$ needs to be reassgined. He has not one, but two Bentley automobiles. His salary is over $800.000.00 dollars a year. That was published on the front page of The South Bend Tribune a couple of years ago. So much for the vow of poverty. He does not live on campus like past presidents have, but has a beautiful home in Granger, IN. He should be reassigned to the University of Portland or maybe one of the poor parishes run by the Holy Cross order like St. Adalbert’s in South Bend.

$warbuck is a wealthy attorney who also needs to go.

BK ( I always make the L for Lou Holtz during the 1812 Overture that the band plays to begin the fourth quarter and this year I was starting to get into the habit of trying to form the K. By the Navy game, I found myself doing the L, for Lou, instead. It has not been the same at ND since he left and I never realized that Monk had a part in that. I am so sad and disappointed to hear that. It has gotten worse with Fr. Jenkins and his puppet, $warbuck have been there and John Afflack Graves is also part of that team too. My friend used to work at ND and Afflack Graves would say how ND employees need to save more and that they might have to bring in their own toilet paper and that ND is hurting for money. This man making a 6 figure salary has the audacity to talk to the underpaid employees about having to save more. The decadent wealth, and arrogance is not the ND I used to know. Too many people who think their crap does not stink, but their farts give them away. I am very, very sad that ND football had so much potential this year, and once again in November, the wheels fell off. There are coaches out there that ND could court, John Gruden, who is from the South Bend area, comes to mind. I am just fed up with the wheels always coming off the cart at the end of the year.

And I do wanna apologize Vannie. I trust you understand the jab around your cumulative high school physics and chemistry grade average was entirely light-hearted and not intended in any way as a diss on you. I probably should’ve referred to someone else in the context of my ill-fated attempt at levity in the course of making my point. That said, no offense intended, and sincere apologies.

Another good up and comer is gone. Did a great job at Penn State as OC. Dan Mullen left to take the Florida job.
