I stand behind the assertion that Weis was planning to punish Ian Williams at the time the article was written. He reversed course later in the week under pressure from University leadership. I do not have to make up stuff for negativity to seep through the cracks in the program. That is happening whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.

This article is actually quite inaccurate. There was NEVER a mention that Williams was being disciplined for his comments after the Navy game. Furthermore, Weis was quoted in his press conference that he was playing quite well in practice and was consistently running with the first teamers. It is fine to put up an article that screams 'pessimism' but please can you keep it professional and accurate.

IRISH over Pitt tonight, 31-24.
GO IRISH!!!

Re:I live in Pittsburgh and this city is not hopping like Mayor Ravenstahl would have you believe. This is Steelers Country first and foremost. ND is just as big as Pitt here, believe me.
This guy is right! I work in a huge corporation in downtown Pittsburgh, and the only person I saw yesterday wearing blue was me, with my Golden Tate #23 ND Home jersey! Pitt fans acknowledge this openly, ND fans will be at least 50% of the crowd at Heinz field. Go IRISH! Mayor Luke Ravenstahl is a colossal joke!

If we do fire CW what is the over/under on how long it will take Brian Kelly, John Gruden (again),Urban Meyer (again), etc. to announce that they are not interested in the ND job?

Kelly has already made clear that he's interested in the Irish job.

Get ready Irish fans, you're in for a real treat. The first truly great coach since Lou Holtz. Oh, and by the way, Zach Collaros, UC's back-up QB, is far better than Clausen and will have two years of eligibility left after he transfers!!!

a Note to Anonymous 9:21...

maybe you should go easy on the jungle juice brotha...

Your eloquent usage of every expletive imagined...

If you are an ND grad..then shame on you...I know you are not..because an ND grad would have more class than to write what you did...

Grow UP..

I am one of the greatest and most hopeful fans there ever was...and I love Notre Dame with all my heart...and I so much want them to turn the corner and become great again...but I can't...I simply cant endorse the coach we have now...I'm sorry...but there's just too much damage done...

1. anytime a coach throws a 19 year old kid under the bus like CW has done to Ian Williams...it's just unacceptable..

People..look at all the dissension in this team...everyones pointing fingers...Corwin Brown is hung up on Navy's Coach...CW is hung up on Ian Williams comments...We have a DC, Rick Minter who gets fired...and then Corwin becomes DC..then Tenuta..then co coaches..

gimme a break...

I still hope for us to go 3 and 0 and then beat Miami in the Gator bowl..but I just dont see it happening...

and for the first time...if losing means CW is gone..then to be honest..I wont be sad...

We need Brian Kelly or Chris Pederson..or someone that knows the College game...to come in here and instill some life into this once proud program...

I'm sad that is has come to this..but CW belongs as an OC in the pros...not dealing with impressionalbe college kids..

Please Please Please CW...for the love of this school..resign...and lets get someone in here who knows how to coach..not point fingers

GO IRISH

". . . you too afraid? meet you out behind the servers and we'll talk man-to-man???"

You gotta love the tough talk from someone who doesn't have the stones to use a name other than "Anonymous." And who better to tell us "what our lady if about" than someone who can't string together an entire sentence without some kind of vulgarity?

Anyone think CW would step down and take over as offensive coordinator and the head recruiter? If he loves the Irish as mush as he says he would swallow his Jersey pride, then he could stay in SB and continue working Hanna's House.

Vannie -

I would sincerely appreciate it if you would edit and remove comments that contain profantity or vulgarity. Thanks.

Now, for those of you who watched the Bearcats defeat the Mountaineers, you can't seriously tell me you don't think Brian Kelly's the man. I realize the Mountaineers got robbed on that instant replay call, but did you see the way Kelly coached from the sidelines and got in the face of his coaches and players?

I don't care if the Irish run the table and qualify for the godaddy.com bowl. Brian Kelly should be hired, immediately, if not sooner.

Yes, I realize Wannstedt is horrible now just as he was with the Dolphins and Bears. I just think that Charlie has surpassed him in suckitude.
