Sources: Brian Kelly exploring coaching options outside Notre Dame
Yahoo ^ | November 26, 2016 | Pat Forde

Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly has reached out through representatives to explore coaching options outside Notre Dame, sources told Yahoo Sports. Kelly just completed his seventh season as coach of the Fighting Irish, a 4-8 debacle that was the school’s second-worst record of the last 52 years. The disappointment was compounded by news Tuesday that the NCAA is vacating 21 Notre Dame victories in the 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons for academic misconduct involving eight players.

Kelly should have been fired awhile ago for negligence in getting the student killed. I am not a big Kelly fan. His antics on the sideline is a disgrace. He throws his players under the bus in public.

All of that is true, plus he's not very smart...went for two a few years ago against Northwestern when no coach in America would have seen the logic. Even before that, he lost me when he interviewed for a job in 2012 with the Eagles after ND had a great season. He's a jag...

Looks like he lost a form of “institutional control” of his team when one of the ND Players injured, stomped and kicked USC players on three separate occasions....

Any trouble that hits Notre Dame is fun to watch. When Father Jenkins had Catholics arrested for praying the Rosary on the grounds of the formally Catholic school (in protest of his giving Obama an honorary JD) I sent him my ND hat with 30 silver dimes. They are not a Catholic school;they are not Irish and as both they embarrass me.

I agree with you, and i like to watch their games to see the melt down. But I actually felt a ping of pity for him yesterday when the sports people said that Brian Kelly said the kids are uncoachable anymore. Dont know if he meant his team or the thug culture in general.

He’s a Democrat. Seriously, he’s a very staunch Democrat. Kind of says it all.

And they have had some doozies. This crap Saturday was beyond the pale. I cannot stand USC but targeting is bad beyond all reason. I'm surprised a switchblade didn't come out.

Not a big ND fan, but I have to say the 2015 Clemson vs. ND game was one of the best games I ever saw. ND players left it all on the field that night. What happened to a team that could play like that?

Okay, I saw it when the guy kicked Ware in the head while he was stretched out on the field, and when he stomped on Banner’s ankle. What was the third incident?

Kelly very publicly shat upon his players in Cincinnati when he told them that he had not accepted the ND job and they learned that he did on ESPN.

He is despised in the Queen City because of his low-rent tactics.

Pseudo-Catholic coach at a pseudo-Catholic university. ND has lost its moral and spiritual compass. Just another left-wing institution whose aim is to indoctrinate impressionable young people.
