Wow! I am really surprised at this. I never thought that Notre Dame would hire a pro-abortion Catholic. I guess winning trumps theology.

“Weis was officially fired Nov. 30 following five seasons with a 35-27 record.”

I still don’t understand what took so long...

Someone told me he was pro-abortion ... do you know it that’s true?

He is a good choice!

Living here in Michigan I have been a big fan of his.
I wanted Michigan State to get him, but they made the mistake of hiring the guy Kelly replaced at Cinci.

Maybe the word has got out that Notre Dame has lost the affection of her Subway alumni. In part, the university has lost its Catholic aura, and in part because it doesn’t win.

Notre Dame has just hired a Left Wing Democrat in Kelly(he stumped for Kerry and Obama) and is very Pro abortion.

Looks like Notre Dame once again gives the finger to the Catholic Church and its belief system.

I honestly don't know, and I haven't seen that. I know Weis was a Catholic, as was Lou Holtz, but I have no idea about Bob Davie or Ty Willingham.

My guess is that Kelly's faith had little to do with the decision to hire him, for better or worse.

This is disappointing. I was really holding out hope for Tony Dungy.

Unless a mid-20’s ex-pro baseball player is recruited, not a single teenage recruit will have memory of the glory years under Lou Holtz. That is a challenge.

Here’s hoping that UC tells him to take a hike and doesn’t let him coach the Sugar Bowl.

As a UC alum, I am really disappointed. And right before their bowl game against the gators.

In all due respect to Kelly’s politics, this is about WINNING FOOTBALL games! Love him or hate him, Kelly has had success everywhere he’s gone from winning Div. II titles at Grand Valley State, winning a MAC title at Central Michigan and winning the Big East and getting two BCS bowl games at Cincy. Just wondering if he will coach Cincinnati in the bowl game ... when he left Central Michigan in 2006, he jumped ship early and coached Cincy in their bowl game and left assistant coach Jeff Quinn to coach Central Michigan in the Motor City Bowl. I wonder if he does the same this time, even though Notre Dame has decided to not go bowl-ling? Kelly certainly has his work cut out under the Golden Dome, but I think he has the track record to prove that he can get the job done in South Bend. As far as football goes, I’m a Kelly fan.

Scum school that hands out medals to muslims who promote partial birth and post birth abortions. The alumni could have shut this down. Maybe they can perform abrotions at midfield for halftime festivities playing that stupid ND song.

The liberal American Catholic Church is disgraceful. The Pope should smack down ND.

UC Alum Urban Meyer will be very happy to give Kelly a nice sendoff.
