Charlie Weis (ex-Kansas HC, ex-Fla OC, Notre Dame legend, UnDecided Schematic Advantage)

That is some serious trash talking by a recently fired coach. I hope it screws any chance he had at getting another coaching job at any D-I school or in the NFL. Go coach at some stupid D-II/III school where you will never be heard of again.

"What's the deal, Charlie?"

And as a departing gift please accept this $18 million. He can say anything he wants(as long as it's not libelous).
He don't need another stinkin' job now! :tongue2:

I am thinking of the NDChief fests year after year defending this guy when we all said that this would be the outcome of his tenure at Notre Dame.

It was predictable and so was the personalization of criticism toward him.

After his performance at Notre Dame and the compromise of his former performance in "VideotapeGate", Charlie probably realizes that his job prospects are less than they once were.

Somebody will want this guy. He knows offense. But, do they want the entire package. The mile-wide ego. Listen to him this week. He plays out ND as if it was a huge success and he learned so much that coaches "will be able to use me as a sounding board."

PUHleeze. What you learned in South Bend was how to fail, Charlie, not how to succeed.

At a time when he could show humility and the ability to get along--remember, he said he wanted to leave things right and be a well-wisher of his replacement--he torches another coach's personal life.

He is right. Fans went over the top in their personal criticisms of his obesity and other personal and family issues that must have impacted on his family.

He is wrong. People went over the top because everywhere he went he showed disrespect to everyone else. Every day. As they say in Africa, the higher the baboon climbs up the tree, the more you see his arse.

So, yeah, the effect of all this on his family is unfortunate and I am very pleased that we discourage that kind of thing on BP. Still, if Charlie is looking for someone to blame, he should look no further than himself.

My fave:
Oh8Ch - I would have said that even that shouldn't have happened to Weis ... then

So typical of weis to complain about the pain his family has felt from media scrutiny and then after the next cheeseburger break make accusations about another man's family life

his entire interview is ego and smug
He pulls shit like that - and it just reinforces, there is nothing Weis does not deserve to have said about him. Seriously, pussy envy as you go out the door? That's the best you got Chuckie?

Actually, more surprising to me than Weis' accusation is the fact that it took this long for someone to accuse Pete Carroll of this.

But really, nice of him to burn a few bridges before he leaves. This man is very truly a classless idiot.

And so it continues:

Former Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis has apologized and insists heated comments he made about USC coach Pete Carroll were taken out of context and that he meant no offense.


Weis, speaking to The Los Angeles Times on Sunday, said was speaking to several reporters on a "totally subjective" basis as an aside to a formal interview, and that the comments were meant to reference Internet rumors in general and how they impact coaches' lives and their families.



"In no way was I trying to take a shot at Pete," Weis said in a phone message to The Los Angeles Times. "What we were talking about was how the rumor mill can affect people's lives.



"When I was asked a specific question like that, I responded like, 'This is the same crap that I'm talking about,' " Weis said, according to The Times. "You start saying things like this and one thing, this guy does this and I do that and all of a sudden the Internet takes it all over the place.


"So, in no way was I trying to take a shot at Pete. I feel if I offended Pete, I will run Pete down and apologize. In no way do I have any idea what's going on in anyone's life other than the fact that rumors on the Internet can affect coaches' lives in a very, very negative fashion."



Weis, fired at Notre Dame last week, had been asked by IrishIllustrated.com, a site devoted to covering Notre Dame sports, if he was "frustrated" by how he's portrayed in contrast to Carroll.


According to the interview transcript from IrishIllustrated.com senior editor Tim Prister, Weis responded: "Let me ask you this question: You guys know about things that go on in different places. Was I living with a grad student in Malibu, or was I living with my wife in my house? You could bet that if I were living with a grad student here in South Bend, it would be national news.



"He's doing it in Malibu and it's not national news. What's the difference? I don't understand. Why is it OK for one guy to do things like that, but for me, I'm scrutinized when I swear. I'm sorry for swearing; absolve my sins."
