Very intriguing.
Pep's offense just mauled the Wisconsin defense on that last drive. Please. Please. Please.
We've already discussed this... If nothing else changes, we riot.
Yeah that would be awesome! But we'll see...
the amount of goodwill that Notre Dame receives automatically cannot be excused, even if it means rooting for the SEC.
I personally think and hope that Bama spanks them pretty good.
I hope Pep does become our next OC. Just don't know if he would leave Stanford. Maybe we can have a "Pep" rally outside Beamer's office to show him how much we want Pep.
I remember putting all my cards into that team, so close to having things being different, if only we had just not lost to Boise, then JMU would probably not have happened...would our matchups then have been different against Auburn instead of Stanford, etc...
Who's coming back in 2013 (we're looking at you Gayle, Thomas, and Exum). Will we be able to handle a true offensive identity for once? Will we have an Edmunds/Harris 1-2 punch???
Anyway, yes please...set this freaking goal. Train and Train. I'm ready to go all in again.
and the Outback Bowl with Shawn Elliott is happening right now. Beamer was never going to do anything until his target(s) finished the season. I would expect some news to trickle down about a week from today. If two weeks from now we haven't heard anything, I'd start to worry. If a couple of weeks after signing day we still haven't heard anything, I'd expect to see Stiney and Co. back next season. Right now though it's way too early too freak out. Beamer is a classy guy, he doesn't want to undermine another coach's bowl prep by taking away his coordinator. Chill for a bit.
Thats ideal, but we've also heard from credible "sources" that Tony Franklin was going to be our new OC

The longer there is no news, the worse it gets. I mean, we all hope that something changes, but nothing is guaranteed. And the longer we wait for a change, the less viable candidates there will be, and also the less likely that there will be one.
On the one hand, I hate ND and the entitlement they stand for. This hatred has existed for as long as I can remember.
On the other hand, I hate the SEC for being the SEC, and I hate Bama for being Bama. The SEC has won the last 6 championships. Bama has won 2 of the last 3.
But on the other other hand, it would be nice to say that we beat the twice defending national champs.... might almost be worth it.
I'm hoping (dreaming) this is WP's way of tip-toeing ahead with insider info that Pep will be our next OC. The "story before THE story", so to speak.
No news is good news. Right?
When exactly tickets go on sale?
Last time we had our chance to beat them, we simply blew it. We rolled with bama through 4 quarters, led for most of the game, and still managed to lose it by 10. We had rmfw, tyrod, coale, grimm, jason worlids. We still couldnt manage to score points and put the game out of reach for them. To hear bama fans tell it they dominated us, which i dont believe is true at all. We had em and we let em off the hook. Something has to give here people and its the offense, the offense corralates into our defense as well, you give foster some points and he can send the hounds!
"#BeatBama" will be in my Twitter bio until after 8/31.
Assuming #1 happens, one upshot is that there won't be any tape out there of our offense.
Granted, there will be tape available of whatever other teams' offenses the new OC has worked.

# | An Unlikely Candidate for Offensive Coordinator but a Good One: Chris Klenakis but he would have been an awesome Hokie OC,,,probably not a likely Frank hire anyway.

To be in atl to witness bama bros cry
I'm going to place two (obvious) conditions on mine:
1. Stiney and Newsome (and to a lesser extent O'Cain) must no longer control the offense. Yes it will suck testing out a new O and O coaches against Bama but the season and especially the bowl game showed that the current offense is fundamentally flawed and VERY EASY to stop. At least with a new O we'll have the benefit of Saban not having any tape on the new system.
2. Related to #1, Logan Thomas needs to change something in the offseason...hopefully it can be accomplished with summer dedication, a new offensive team and a good QB coach, though I worry that Logan is fundamentally flawed as a QB (not sure I've many QBs that are consistently as inaccurate as LT).
That said, I think we should have a nasty D that can attack and keep Yeldon and Lacy in check, and force McCarron to throw (any chance McCarron bolts to NFL?)....
Either way definitely looking forward to it\!
Our offensive changes are also mentioned in the article. To add fuel to the fire, he is already recruiting our area. If he can convince kids to travel to the other side of the country, I'm sure he could convince them to drive a few hours down 81.

Over the weekend I heard from one of my friends that is very close to the team (family member of a coach) that Steiny was not going to be fired completely but named as the recruiting coordinator. No word on possible hires to fill the offensive coordinator position yet.
My source is reliable, don't ask me who...I can't tell :)
i know, look how prepared that offense is to play a football game after a month.
what a concept
