No, this probably the worst in recent time.

Frank Leahy couldn’t win with this team. Making it worse is that we have another second-tier coach in over his head. Herbstreit was right. We’re witnessing a high school defense. He might as well add that ND has a kindergarten offensive system.

Dave88 said, “Guess what? ND got worse when Weis got the recruits he wanted.”

Initially, yes, in 2007.

But, with Weis, he was able to take what he had in 2005 and 2006, and go to back to back BCS bowls, with prolific offenses. Not easy to do. With *zero* head coaching experience. None. Zip. Weis showed his potential– offensively anyway. Time was warranted for Weis.

But now we got this guy with 20 years in college head coaching, trying to force players into this silly d1ink-and-dunk system. His team looks uninspired. And, his team just gave up one of the worst losses we have seen in a very long time.

I’m questioning how much time should be given to this guy too.

We have not had a real chance at a top 10 finish in 10 years. It is a program and coaching issue not a Navy issue. We can’t beat anybody good!!!!

I thought Rees looked good in action today. Pleased with his performance.

This is a young team, with a new QB learning a new offense.

That said, there are certain things you look for from any coach, with any team. What bothers me about this team is that I see zero improvement as this year progresses. That is usually a sign of poor coaching. Teams that are coached will, improve as the year goes on. Just like under Weis, we’re not seeing that (at least not yet).

Yeah, that’s what you all were saying with Weis. Just give him time, just give him another year, then another year. Wait until he gets his recruits in place, then we’ll really be good. Where does the buck stop with some ND fans?

Guess what? ND got worse when Weis got the recruits he wanted.

ND looked like a high school team running around like chickens with their heads cut off. They made Jon Tenuta and Corwin Brown look like defensive geniuses! I don’t know what to say BK has proven to be a good coach over the past 19 years. I think at some point you have to put this on the players collectively. Whether its a now losing tradition or the type of players that have been recruited or what ever. I think BK’s 5 minute plan will realistically be a 5 year plan. I listened to his post game press conference but something just doesn’t ring true. He is saying what he has to say, he can’t through his whole team under the bus, but……

I am a HUGE Notre Dame fan, but Navy has embarrassed ND 3 times in four years. Today, Notre Dame had no fight and certainly no defense, no special teams, no offense, no nothing!

As for beating Utah and USC, I just hope ND can beat Tulsa and Army. As much as I hate to say it, ND is just not that good. I thought BK was the right choice, but he has made some really bad calls and excuses (BC dropped 8 & Navy running the veer which neither team had shown before). With 20 years of coaching, BK should be ready for anything. Especially when BK has “more” talent. Even Faust didn’t lose to Navy (although he couldn’t beat Air Force).

Go Irish!
