Coming on the heels of the Willingham situation, I'm certain that some African American organizations and activists will be discussing what they can do. We'll see if any action comes of it.

Unfortunately Steve, this is Notre Dame that we're talking about. I just don't think that Jesse could get the job done. Stronger measures...stronger Men are needed...

John Shaft needs to go to South Bend and lay some wood upside Charlie Weis' thick skull to get the message across.

It's times like this when I wish I knew how to make flash games. I can just visualize a Pac-Man spoof of Charlie Weis going around eating cheeseburgers, with double cb's as the power pellets and scUM players as the ghosts...

The Five Year Myth

It is a myth that every coach at Notre Dame has an inalienable right to five years to prove himself. That has never been policy. Fifteen coaches in Notre Dame's storied history have, for various reasons, had tenures of less than five years. That list includes Kuharich, Devore, McKeever and Anderson since Rockne. More recently coaches Davie and Faust were given five years, and those decisions proved to be miserable failures. There was some justification to warrant Faust's extra time given his high school background and Father Ted's personal commitment to him, but giving Davie five years was gross negligence. The five-year plan is not policy and even if it were time has proven it to be a colossal failure that should be learned from and not repeated. Ara himself set the standard by boldly stating upon his arrival that if you can't do it in three years, you can't do it. And without exception this has proven to be true. In the entire history of Notre Dame, no coach who failed at the three year mark, succeeded in five years. There are some who claim that because of parity, restrictions and other issues, that Notre Dame can't win anymore, but they said the exact same things before both Ara and Lou arrived in South Bend and were proved wrong. Tedford, Meyer, Carroll, Stoops, Tressel, Amato, Friedgen, Holtz and others have made immediate impacts on their schools, most with far, far less talent than Notre Dame. When the five-year myth is promulgated by media talking heads and writers, it's important to note that most of those talking heads and scribes are not fans of Notre Dame or speaking in Our Lady's best interest.

The Ty Willingham fact sheet

Remember, the above was written as part of the treatise to get Willingham fired.

ND won't let Jones out of scholarship

SOUTH BEND ? Demetrius Jones will have to pay his own way to Northern Illinois this year.
The former Notre Dame quarterback will not be released from his scholarship, the school decided Tuesday.
?We don?t believe that Demetrius? departure was handled appropriately,? Notre Dame athletics director Kevin White said.


Appropriate move on Notre Dame's part if you ask me.
