Notre Dame Gameday...

[kingtidge]

There has to be something going on behind the scenes. There is no way they can expect Carney to come back after having handled him like that for 4 games.

My theory is they know he is leaving so they don’t want him to show his capability. Crazy world. I thought we were trying to win? More evidence for the” Coach Brown can’t coach” file.

^^^THIS

Only remotely conceivable reason they've handled Carney the way they have.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

He may not be back, but not for the reason you think.

The plan was to redshirt him, he'd be QB2 in 2026, and the potential starter from 2027 onward.

Now that Angeli will still be here in 2026 and 2027, it might change things.

After how he's been handled, he should leave.

Their are playing a playoff team at home and they have something to prove lol . I don’t know what you expected .

I expect posts like this

 

[tbonezone]

didn't hear matt park talk to the coach at the half.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I’m so tired of the excuses being made for Carney. He’s not better than Filardi. If he was he would be playing. Period. Carney will never start here.

The results on the field suggest that Carney is better.

I feel like I am missing something that is causing this team to look like absolute garbage. And it’s not a talent issue or a poor coaching issue (ERob) or even a QB issue. This team is quit yet Fran’s demeanor makes it look like he is cool with it (even the ND coach looks embarrassed). What the hell am I missing?

Wonder if Fran thinks we get the first pick in the draft if we lose out.

Wildhack must be thinking: "Oh, what a mistake I made in this hire. Should have went with my first inclination, Bob Chesney."

That's exactly what everyone was thinking ... when we beat Miami last year and Clemson this year.

In case you are wondering, the answer is 75-0 to Union College in 1891.

I don't think ND would have any trouble getting there if they really wanted.

Remember that time that Carney started a game with an interception?

Me neither.

 

[hoopsupstate]

It looks like there is some internal issues. Our better talent is our younger players and not our juniors and seniors. That can be a problem on some teams. I’m just surmising with no actual knowledge.

I'm never going to hear the end of this at work.

they weren’t thinking that last year…

BC was down 12-7 at the half.

 

[JustPherU]

Has a team ever come back from being down 49 points at the half?

No,35 points is the record I believe.

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

It’s Senior Day so there’s going to be all sorts of ND walk-on/role player types set up to make their 1st big play under Touchdown Jesus.

I think we missed out on Dan Mullen. Bob is a wildcard. Definitely could have worked but he’s never faced the competition we face.
I think Mullen would have been a difference maker.

Yup dont think it would be a mistae if Fran could get an NFL QB every year. I think an NFL QB can cover up the fact that Fran cant coach.

 

[Dr. Bill]

I can't watch any more...49- 0 at the half! Yikes...We look like a middle school team!

 

[Toga]

We're a basketball school.

I'm self employed.

You should see my staff meetings.

He doesn't even need an NFL QB.

A practice squad QB will do.

Is it you in an empty room starting things off by yelling "I got a lotta problems with you people!"

FIFY

I’m fine with the o being what it is/has been since Angeli went down. That’s happens when you lose your QB.

What I’m not fine with is the incompetence in special teams and, most of all, defense. An embarrassment and totally unacceptable.
