Weis rides into the Sunset after a Thriller
So it seems, the era of Charlie Weis comes to an end in a thriller against Stanford that Weis went out trading playbook pages with Stanford’s Jim Harbaugh in a 45-38 defeat that neither assured nor hastened Weis’ firing. Weis rolled into town at the beginning of he’s career at Notre Dame with such fan [...]
Charlie Weis just placed the last nailed on he’s own coffin
As it has for many Saturdays these last few weeks, the morning-after fallout started in South Bend and radiated outward. Florida? Oklahoma? Cincinnati? Really, none of us can move on until Notre Dame makes “The Move.” You can only hope that Charlie Weis doesn’t hang in the public square for too long. The man is [...]
Just another Nail in Charlie Weis coffin
When Weis was introduced as Notre Dames’ head coach five years ago at his press conference he suggested, “Well, guess what folks you are a 6-5 football team and that’s not good enough.” Before the Pittsburgh game Weis was on life support.

Over 600 people voted, not a bad cross sample, and the result is an example of the deep concern that [...]
Has the time has come to show Charlie Weis the door?
Though the final score was 34-27 it doesn’t show how thoroughly the Notre Dame Fighting Irish was dominated throughout most of the game by the USC Trojans. The Trojans came from the sunshine of California to frigid weather in Indiana to a once Golden Dome and claimed another victory. The tough-talk from the “Great White [...]
Irish add another storybook ending to crazy season
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis waited to celebrate when he saw the ball pop out of Washington receiver D’Andre Goodwin’s hands on the final play of Saturday’s game. Weis still worried that it would end up in another Husky’s bread basket. “With the way that game went,” Weis said, “would it [...]
