Kelly to Coach Notre Dame

The New York Times is reporting that Cincinnati coach Brian Kelly will be announced as the new coach of Notre Dame tomorrow, 12/11. It says Kelly is expected to inform his team at their football banquet tonight. I can envision the speech now: Well men, we accomplished a lot together. Be proud of yourselves. I'm out of here. Will be interesting to see if he has any more luck than his last several predecessors.

So far, all indications are that Brian Kelly isn't an arrogant, stupid, and egotistical fat guy.

So put me down as “No”.

Lucky get for Notre Dame

Now they can replace their antiquated offense, with a true defensive minded coach. Well plaid Irish, well plaid.

I say let's rock the Orange Bowl, because nobody will remember in five years anyway.

Cinci scoring defensive stats, last three seasons:

2007: 13th
2008: 25th
2009: 24th

Total defense:
2007: 50th
2008: 31st
2009: 48th

Compared to Notre Dame…
Scoring defense:
2007: 72nd
2008: 42nd
2009: 64th
Total defense:
2007: 39th
2008: 39th
2009: 87th

So not great, and certainly not “defensive minded”, but not as bad as I thought.

however

cincy does play in the big east. not exactly big offensive conference.
