Notre Dame Gameday...

[Newhouser]

Someone needs to call Fran out. He should donate his last few game checks.

 

[3rdRecon]

Even if you discount this performance, there has been zero evidence that Robinson is building anything with this defense. DC’s have lost their jobs for far far less.

 

[Blanko97]

Stop it with this Nonsense. It was all Champagne and Cavier when we won 10 games last year. Look at the predictions for this year tht were made last year, based on our schedule, most had us at 5 wins!! Hard to judge Fran's ability as a coach, when you have this kind of talent gap...We have no QB!!! Give the Fran can't coach stuff a rest...Knute Rockney couldn't win with this roster..

Oh bill, take off the orange colored glasses. We have no qb because he can’t identify qb talent. We have a bad roster because those are the players he picked. The schedule is hard because we aren’t good at football

 

[Archbold44]

Fran put the fn roster together. If there is a talent problem it’s Fran’s problem.

We have a QB#3, Carney, that is supposed to be playing for the future. SO what if he portals??? You play to win the game.

 

[tbonezone]

matt park says he didn't talk to fran at the half . post game hopefully.

 

[sufan59]

This is a practice with limited contact

 

[Archimedes]

I feel a pick 6 coming.

 

[Lukeyloo]

starting O line can’t even block NDs backups

 

[wfschrec]

Too early for beers, whiskey and mimosas?

I was stoned before kickoff I just knew it would be ugly. First time I’ve ever turned a game off early.

I'm not arguing about the number of wins. It is being non-competitive for 7 straight weeks and getting embarrassed most of the time. And this is beyond getting embarrassed.

 

[PhatOrange]

Only blows his redshirt if he plays against BC.

Right. So another incredibly BAD decision. Insane to bring him in for 6 handoffs.

Where are we better?
What group of players are overperforming?
What position group has been coached up?
What have you seen that says those 10 wins were more McCord than the coaching staff?

We are not a well-coached football team in any aspect of the football program period. I hope Fran can bring in another NFL QB so we can have another magically season. Otherwise it will be a mess.

 

[Scooch]

Change his title.

Look, I’d launch him into the sun if I could find a rocket that could bear his weight. He sucks. And he’s not landing enough premiere recruits to make up for his terribleness.

But Fran’s dug in. I also assume he made his friend some promises to leave aTm to come here. I’m just making peace with the fact that our D will suck until Robinson leaves. My God, he’s awful.

 

[Lukeyloo]

Hope the media makes Fran aware of this

 

[Surfan06001]

Every day we get a little closer to death.

If it makes anyone feel better

 

[Archbold44]

If Filardi gets hurt... who is QB next week? This is why you play Carney the whole game today after he came in. Fran is stupid.

 

[Scooch]

Right. So another incredibly BAD decision. Insane to bring him in for 6 handoffs.

My hunch is that Carney really sucks. However, that doesn’t excuse the coaching malpractice that has gone on with him. And I suspect it’s 100% on Nixon. Your favorite guy!

 

[Chip]

ND's running backs are averaging 22 yards per rush.

Ours are averaging 1.8.

Any excitement about next year should be tempered until we figure out a way to get better on both lines of scrimmage. It's an enormous uphill climb.

 

[DomeHolmes]

You cannot defend Fran here at all. Erob is his guy and E Rob sucks. We’re still running the same lousy 425 that can’t stop the run. Fran has done nothing about the terrible schemes.

Robinson decides to blitz Deslauriers around the end, vacating his gap. One lineman takes out the other linebacker (easily of course). Nobody left except for Deuce. Of course you know what’s going to happen then.

Once again, a chestnut simply vanishes on the play. Still Covering a receiver while Love runs right by him. LOL.

Fran is too loyal to ERob and he is too loyal to deuce because deuce is a “Camden guy”.

Wildhack better step in.

There is zero chance he is worse than what is out there right now zero.

 

[Toga]

Tim Brown's Heisman was a scam. they forgot to mention that.

The only year when all purpose yards was a thing.

Is that bad?

 

[Irt4su]

This team hold true to DART like my ex held true to our wedding vows. I think the other difference is that my ex can coach.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

He identified McCord and Angeli.

We got fleeced for Collins (I typed feces by mistake). Either works.

Freshmen are freshmen. Filardi won't see the football field again, and who knows how Carney's career will track down the road.

Do we know how dug in he is or are we just guessing based on their friendship? Fran has more than alluded to the fact that there have been coaching issues this season.
