I truly believe it's an okay time to move on from Kelly

we are as far away from a national championship today as we were in 2012.

QB recruiting and play hasn't been good enough to win...nor is his offense. I am ready for a new coach, and Fickell would be my pick. He came into ND with inferior talent, but a superior gameplan...and his offense executed. Never did I think that he was in danger of panic or getting outcoached. In other words, he looked like he belonged and the moment was never too big for him or his team.

He'd be a better coach and would have higher expectations. I don't have a doubt
