Too many good lines to list, so just read the article.

Comeuppance for Weis?

Kuechenberg has seen better days. Not only are his Dolphins 0-4 but he?s also a 1969 Notre Dame grad. The Irish are 0-5 and possibly on their way to 0-8.

?I?m feeling homicidal right now,? he joked.

He turned deadly serious, however, when the subject turned to Irish coach and former Patriots [team stats] offensive coordinator Charlie Weis.

?I want to start the movement -- Charlie?s last name is four letters, and so is ogre, because that?s what he is,? Kuechenberg said. ?Look it up, and you?ll find some other adjectives that fit him to a tee.

Umm..

Kuechenberg helped steer a pair of highly touted offensive line recruits to Notre Dame from St. Thomas Aquinas High School near his home in Florida and never received so much as a thank you from Weis.

?I was very proud of my little role in influencing that,? Kuechenberg said. ?You would think, it?s not like my name is Jack Jones. It?s not like he hasn?t heard of me. I spent 15 years in the big leagues. My feelings were hurt on that, and then all this now. He?s getting what he has earned.?

?I?ve yet to meet the man, and frankly I hope I never do. There?s nothing about his image that I have any respect for. I don?t know Charlie personally, but his image is wide enough and consistent enough from sources I hold in high regard. These are good friends of mine and it?s the same broken record. This guy is an ogre.

I'm sure Kuechenberg will be hearing from NoD shortly. Then they'll come up with some correction about how he really had no influence at all. Nothing to see here, really, just move along now.

No sooner said than done -

Boston Herald - Oct 9th - Standing by Weis

If Charlie Weis is an ogre, he?s as lovable as Shrek.
That was the message yesterday from Joe Montana to Joe Theismann and many points in between, as a series of Notre Dame grads denounced the words of former All-Pro Bob Kuechenberg, who in Sunday?s Herald described Weis as an ogre unfit to lead the Fighting Irish.
?How in heaven?s name you can assess a person in such a vile, negative way without meeting him defies all common sense,? Theismann said. ?I?ve known Bob for a long time, but he?s full of it. He?s flat wrong.?

And on the Bob K. influence to bring Wenger and Young to South Bend ...

Kuechenberg mentioned disappointment that he never was thanked for encouraging a pair of standout offensive linemen from Florida to attend Notre Dame, which could have been an NCAA violation if Weis had sanctioned it.
Bavaro said shortly after Weis got the job, he offered to help with recruiting. Weis? response surprised him.
?I was excited and wanted to know what I could do,? he said. ?He was quick to put a hand in my face and rebuff my efforts. There were rules to follow, and he had to tread very lightly.
?Maybe that?s where Bob got a little offended. Even knowing Charlie as well as I do, it stung a little and did stop me in my tracks. I can see how someone who doesn?t know the good side of Charlie might take it the wrong way. But he?s right - in this day and age, he has to be careful.?

See, he couldn't thank him for his intervention - not even after Young and Wenger had been on campus for a long time. You see if he did Bob would have gone off and told kith kin and NCAA that it was he who brought those highly sought linemen to ND, not the fat-man. So he had to keep mum so Bob K. wouldn't mouth off about helping to sell Wenger and Young on ND. Worked out great didn't it.

Call me cynical, but I don't buy the sleight of hand wordplay that is used to justify Weis' inaction.

Tressel acknowledges how important Ginn Sr. is to Ohio football, and the value of prior players as image in selling the value of Ohio State ball. Surely Weis could himself do the same?

In fact, considering that they do have some of those ex-players - like Bavarro - turn up for the pep rallies whenever there is big recruiting visit weekend, it seems Weis wants his cake and then to eat it too.

What a surprise. Bob K. spoke truth now all the rest want to spin.

I've heard and read several stories that the former ND players hate Weis. He's all but banned them from any contact with the program.

Jeez, a psychologist could have a field day with that one. The former jock-sniffer who never played yet worshiped the players from the stands gets control of the program and subsequently bans the former players from coming around.
