Its one reason not to hate them, unless of course you are one of those Jesse Jackson loving politically correct conservatives who thinks Ty is being oppressed.
But they need to go after a PROVEN winner at a big time program.
Yeah, I agree, I'm not on the Meyer bandwagon. I'd rather see them try to break up Gruden's contract, or get Stoopes.
theres no logical reason for hating ND except they usually win and I usually root for the underdog plus I like USC.
They USED to win, LOL. If USC keeps this up you are going to have to start hating them. The only way I see this jugernaut being broken up is if Chow leaves, they are the best college football team I've seen out of the state of Florida in my lifetime. Its not the QB, its the program.
No I dont think Ty is being oppressed. I think he is being fired because he didnt win or recruit like ND wants their head coach to. It is as simple as wins and loses.
I do think Ty is a decent man and I felt ND should have given him another year or two and I think their expectations are too high. They need to join a conference.
I think Gruden is a good fit because I am not sure that Gruden can coach at the NFL level. He won the stuporbowl with Dungy's team although his Raiders made it there as well so I cant be sure.
As for your last point since I grew up Vegas I have always been partial to the teams near us since we did not have any. I liked the Raiders. My first baseball game to see live was the Angels and football was the Chargers. I also got to see Padre games so I like all those teams. As for USC I always liked them and I went to a game when I was young. Then my sis went there and I visited the dorm a few times. I met salsbury (he dated my sis) she was miss Nevada and was a USC songgirl.
So I will always like USC and I love seeing them finally winning again especially when they beat ND. I also have to agree with you on Chow. He will make somone a great head coach.
