This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

you're looking at the wrong numbers by jt
you need to focus on number of 10 win seasons vs other ND coaches, number of bowl games compared to other ND coaches, and how he has done relative to Randy Edsall (who has somehow become the barometer of coaching success at ND despite the fact that only one person in the entire world--AZDomer--ever advocated for him to come here).
If you start looking at stuff like that, as well as relative recruiting rankings for ND over a short sample size period of time, you'll become convinced that Kelly isn't just the best coach currently in college football, he is the best coach in modern Notre Dame history.
