Who Are You Rooting For

[Steely Dan]

I'd love to see Willingham beat the crap out of Charlie Weis and not just because he's a former Patriot. After winning only one game last year Weis is still with them. That was a much worse season than Willingham ever posted. I hate Notre Dame anyway but that just gives me more reason to hate them. The Fighting Irish are the Dallas Cowboys of college football.

 

The game is on ESPN2 tonight at 8pm.

C'mon people, thirty minutes til kickoff!!

[Mark Vader]

Notre Dame 33

Washington 7

 

 

Yeah it would have been great if Willingham could have gotten the win. But the Huskies are horrid.

How about "D - Notre Dame because I'm not an idiot who irrationally parrots the Willingham raw deal account and continues to attack a school who released a coach who was simply not good enough to be successful in big time I-A"?

 

 

 

The Huskies are terrible...Ty, while not a terrible coach, continues to show what an incapable recruiter he is. That team is bereft of talent and if I was Jake Locker, I'd be cursing the day I decided to sign up.

[R. Rich]

I didn't vote. I also didn't watch.

 

Willingham did get a bit of a raw deal by that school, but if he was going to go to UW to prove he can get it done, so far he hasn't.

 

Of course, that school continues to show they're a second tier team in college football. That won't remain the case forever, but I feel that it will 'til they get more talent and maybe once they get a better coaching staff. I'm still not sold on Weis as a head football coach.

Weis had the worst record for a Notre Dame coach in forever? and yet he is still the head coach.

The talent is almost there (it might be already just too raw) and is growing. This time next year there is no reason why ND shouldn't be able to compete talent-wise with any team in the nation.

 

Re: Weis...I'm not sold either. The guy is a terrific recruiter and obviously has offensive talents. But something has been missing. The next year or so will tell...

You know I rooted for Notre Dame. You know it.

 

And I'm not a moron.

Ummmm, not really no.

Thanks for the regurgitated talking points. You've done Mark May proud. Is your argument really that ND should have kept Willingham? Really??

 

First, your knowledge on this subject is superficial at best. You claim Weis won only one 1 game last year. Look that one up again. Second, look at how wonderfully "Raw Deal" Willingham has done since November 2, 2002 (the day the magic bubble season popped). I can't imagine why ND decided to jettison such a unique coaching talent. Third, Weis might not be the answer, but he has this team stocked with more talent than any ND squad since Lou's title team. We'll see where this one goes. Finally, if you are looking for a strong contributory factor towards why we won three games last year, check out the incredible '06 and '07 senior classes that Willingham left us with.

Oops! I guess I got the Poorpiss and Notre Dame records mixed. IMO, a HC needs to have at least three years. All the same Willingham never had a three win season.

Willingham did get three years.

I'm with you.

 

And also not a moron.

 

I am starting to have doubts about the thread starter, though....
