This year nonwithstanding, why would any coach be on a hot seat after the two previous seasons? They went to bowl games.

I find the hate torwards ND so stupid and irrational. You guys that know so much about sports turn into absolute idiots when ND is discussed.

Not just any bowl games, but BCS bowl games. For the reasons Colleges run major football programs (money and publicity), you can't really ask for a better result than to be on national TV January 1st and pull in $10 million or whatever. From the College President's POV, it doesn't really matter if the team is overrated. Actually, its a good thing if your team is overrated.

Amen. This thread is an exercise in sheer idiocy...

People might miss this because it was at the bottom of page one and it was a link, but from the blog NozeCandy linked:

"
All told there are fifteen seniors on the Notre Dame two-deep...
***
Michigan has nine scholarship seniors. Ohio State... lists all of five seniors on their entire two-deep... Three of the five seniors are fullbacks. "

That proves what a great coach/leader of young men Weis is-- you wouldn't expect so many of somebody else's recruits to hang around.

WTF, the point of this thread is to laugh at Notre Dame potentially going 0-12. Call the Weis comments idiocy, but don't mock the original intent of this thread good sir.

ND goes to BCS games and gets humiliated because they've never deserved to go to a BCS game. Because of who ND was, they get over rated and their fans are arrogant. Every year their schedule is loaded with creampuffs. So they dump a coach after three years ( which they never used to do) to hire this "genius", who hasnt yet proven he can be a successful head coach at any level. It's hilarious to listen to delusional ND fans who believe ND is still a premier program despite not winning a bowl game in a decade.

I had a tear in my eye watching ESPN today as some young ND student said if they can just keep the streak against Navy going. Good, good, fun.

I agree Notre Dame tends to be overrated, but the last 3 years their strength of schedule ranked #5, #14 and #18 according to Sagarin.
