Weis should be our next OC or HC

In my opinion, Charlie Weis should be our next OC or possibly even an offensive playcalling HC. He knows our young franchise QB better than anyone, we already use his playbook and he's made the most out of every opportunity he has gotten. The only concern I have about Weis at this point is his health.

I'm not sure he's going to get an NFL head coaching job anytime soon.

(poor record as a college head coach, plus some health issues)

OC maybe, but you'd arguably have a better shot of getting him for that role with John Fox remaining as head coach, and I don't see that happening.

Mind you, I like Weis as an OC. I just don't see it happening here.

Yea and while we're at it lets trade Steve Smith for Golden Tate since he knows our franchise QB so well, and underneath the Panther statues outside the stadium lets put a picture of touchdown Jesus.

Right because that's the same as bringing in an OC/HC to fill an obvious void that just happens to know our QB and playbook...

His record at ND was poor but I don't think it was poor enough to hold against him. Most people understand that the best coach in the world can't get past the limitations at ND.

Once again, the fruit that has fallen from the Belichick coaching tree has been, errr, unremarkable so far. And man, I don't remember seeing anyone talking about how Notre Dame was firing up the college rankings.

ND will never be a legitimate contender for a national title simply because they cannot compete from a recruiting standpoint (academic requirements)

How many 1st round draft picks have come out of ND in the past 10 years?

Those of you saying Weis will not be a HC because of his record at ND are crazy.

First of all, it took him all of a week to land an OC job in the NFL after he got fired. No one cared about his ND experience because the guy's hand is full of rings.

Now we have a KC team that is 3-0. Given the scarcity of coaches with head coaching experience, expect to see Weis getting very strong looks if KC makes the playoffs.

And as far as ND goes, Weis never started a season 1-3 like Brian Kelly has. Granted they aren't comparable but it just goes to show you that even a great college coach like Kelly has trouble winning with ND's existing talent. Their defensive recruiting was touted as 4 or 5 star but have been absolutely terrible the past few years.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
