I'm not saying he's a terrible coach, even though I kind of worded it like he was. He's just not THAT good, certainly not a better hire than Kelly. Edsalls best success has come with the ground work laid out by Holtz

dont forget of the 5 games they lost this season, two were by 4 points, two were by 3, and one was by 2...and definitely pulling the team together after jasper howard's murder is a testament of how great of a coach he is.

That's extremely silly. Like beyond words.

Edsall's a good game coach and he's done a great job turning UConn into what it is today. I agree he wouldn't have been a good fit at Notre Dame though.

I am going to be fucking pissed if Cincy takes another coach from CMU. Jones is a good coach, I hope he doesn't bail now that LeFevour is graduating.

Right. They should turn down chances to leave a MAC school.

Notre Dame won't go anywhere unless they get a defense. They can have Vince Lombardi coach and will still lose to BCS opponents because of their horrid defense.

I just want my school's football team to keep building their program

BCS in two years, 10-2 next year. But I hate this decision. I really do.
We do have to take into account academics. I read that Cincinnati is not nearly as strict in their recruiting and academics, and Notre Dame is. So we'll see what kind of players he can get and if he can get a better defense.
But I really feel he's a good coach. Just look at his record. It's the career progression so many coaches have, DII or DIAA then mid-major, then major, then a big school like ND.
But the higher the rise, the farther the fall. Staying at Cincinnati would have been a job he could have kept as long as he wanted, but at ND, if he is not producing consistent BCS teams, he will be fired.

Good luck with that because (1) Dan LeFevours don't come along every 4 years and (2) Butch Jones is jetting the first good offer he gets.

[BroNamath]

i'm a huge notre dame fan
played basketball against theo riddick in high school and with him in aau
nd has talent coming back at the skill positions w/ floyd and armando allen plus thee etc.
Kelly will do a good job on offense, im curious to see in Tanuta stays at DC
dont know what kind of recruiter he will be, but defense and offense line needs to be the recruiting focus

Jones will probably leave...doesn't mean I can't hope and dream anyway. Do you go to Western or something? Haha.

Haha, no. I just want Central to go down so I don't have to hear Ray Bentley need a change of pants every time he does a Central game or Central gets mentioned.
