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.

Look, if you don't think that Saban wouldn't do well here by jt
at Notre Dame due to the tremendous institutional constraints put upon him by this unrelenting administration, I can't help you.
That sort of thing wasn't around in 1988. All the teams were clean and coaches were pure as the driven snow and Holtz had all kinds of breaks from the admin and could recruit whomever he wanted. Kelly is the good soldier here, fighting against unreasonable alums, fans, and administration and still succeeding.
It's the Q'Irish board.
