    Actually it's his second year.

    Does this mean Weis won't be looking longingly at rejoining the NFL?

    He's 19-5 and looking at a second consecutive BCS bowl. Hard to see that as unsatisfactory. Their defense stinks, possibly because every good D needs a couple of bona fide sociopaths out there and those aren't Notre Dame types.

    He's got a 10-year contract, so he won't be leaving for at least 10 years!! [/ndlooserfanboys]

    Christ, give the guy a chance to recruit some defence and let them mature. Didn't get to see the game, and I loathe the fucking fighting Irish, but I have a hard time calling him a fraud at this point. It usually takes about three years to turn a program around completely. Let his first wave of recruits hit their junior year at least. Still, as someone pointed out, potentially two BCS seasons in his first couple of years at the helm it's a little tough to call him a disappointment. Hell, as an Aggie fan I would have liked one in the first four years of Coach Fran (you want to talk fraud, well there you go. I don't care if he finally beat UT this Friday).

    Why should he be cut more slack than Tyrone Willingham was?

    I am not a big fan of Charlie Weis but he was not the reason ND lost. Their secondary is just not that good. You could see this loss coming a mile away. It also did not help that Rhema McKnight developed a bad case of aligator arms.

    I thought they wanted more black people?

    Hard to blame Weis, in just his second year, for not having better athletes in the secondary.

    On the other hand, I completely agree with Gee on the sociopaths on defense comment. Overlooked point, if you ask me.

    I don't care enough to look it up, but while Willingham had a few good seasons he also had a few bads ones too, no? As has been sais Weis will be 2-for-2 going to a BCS bowl.
     
  12. Charlie Weis exposed. Yeah, exposed as having horrible taste in sideline clothes. He looked like he'd gone straight from doing yard work to the game.
    Ty Willingham: 18-28 in his last four seasons.
