November 30, 200916 yr I don't think Weis gets along with Mangenius, so Clevland is a long shot IMO. My guess is New England or Chicago. Are you crazy? Do you think Mangino is going to stay at Cleveland? He'll be out of there faster than a hot potato.
November 30, 200916 yr He had to be fired, but I really feel bad for Charlie. I have grown to really like him.
November 30, 200916 yr It's official. ND has sent out an e-mail. Assistant coach Rob Ianello will take over on an interim basis.
November 30, 200916 yr I don't think he will go there, I have heard from people in South Bend that Harbaugh from Stanford is really on the Notre Dame radar. Reports from Cincinnati say that the university is working on a new deal for Kelly. I have a feeling he will stay and get a HUGE payday. Just my opinion, we may know something soon. Plus they say his wife likes it here.......all husbands know what that means! The guy beats ND in the last couple of minutes of the game - at home - and now he's the guy? Heck, what about the guy from Navy or UConn or...
November 30, 200916 yr The guy beats ND in the last couple of minutes of the game - at home - and now he's the guy? Heck, what about the guy from Navy or UConn or... I'd say he is probably not too high on their list, but outside of beating Notre Dame, his team dismantled USC, something Notre Dame appears to want really bad. :walk:
November 30, 200916 yr It's official. ND has sent out an e-mail. Assistant coach Rob Ianello will take over on an interim basis. Thanks for all you do for Notre Dame. Below is a press release regarding coach Charlie Weis. Please note a press conference is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. ET tonight and can be viewed live at http://www.und.com. For Notre Dame, Chuck Lennon ’61, ’62 M.A. Executive Director, University of Notre Dame Alumni Association Associate Vice President, University Relations ### November 30, 2009 Weis will not be retained as Notre Dame football coach University of Notre Dame head football coach Charlie Weis will not be retained, University director of athletics Jack Swarbrick announced today. “We have great expectations for our football program, and we have not been able to meet those expectations,” Swarbrick said. “As an alumnus, Charlie understands those goals and expectations better than most, and he’s as disappointed as anyone that we have not achieved the desired results.” Swarbrick recommended the dismissal Sunday night to Notre Dame’s president, Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C. “We have established an evaluation process for all of our athletic programs that, in the end, results in a recommendation from Jack to me,” Father Jenkins said. “I accepted Jack’s decision and look forward to working with him on selecting a new head football coach who is the very best choice possible for the University and especially for our student-athletes. “I am most appreciative to Coach Weis for his service to Notre Dame and our community. He and his family have my prayers and best wishes.” Weis spent five seasons as Irish head coach from 2005-09, with his teams achieving consecutive records of 9-3 (Fiesta Bowl appearance) in ’05, 10-3 (Sugar Bowl appearance), 3-9, 7-6 (Hawai’i Bowl victory) and 6-6 in ’09 – for an overall 35-27 mark (.564). Swarbrick announced that Rob Ianello, the Irish assistant head coach/offense, wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator, will assume responsibility for football operations until a new coach is hired. Ianello has spent the past five seasons on the Notre Dame staff and previously was part of football staffs at Wisconsin (1990-93, 2003-04), Arizona (1994-2002) and Alabama (1987-89).
November 30, 200916 yr Eric Mangini is at Cleveland. Mark Mangino is at Kansas. Both coaches can probably count their days at both Cleveland and Kansas.

November 30, 200916 yr Eric Mangini is at Cleveland. Mark Mangino is at Kansas. Both coaches can probably count their days at both Cleveland and Kansas That was a typo.
December 1, 200916 yr If I were the AD at ND I would go for......... 1. Nick Saban 2. Pete Carroll 3. Mack Brown 4. Bob Stoops 5. Urban Meyer Put your self in the AD's seat who would you go after? I know it would be hard if not impossible to get one of these coaches but I'd call these 5 first.

December 1, 200916 yr Are you crazy? Do you think Mangino is going to stay at Cleveland? He'll be out of there faster than a hot potato. He will be their head coach next year (Clevland can't start over again in one year-he'll get another year), and no I'm not crazy. Basically I was just going off of this info.link
December 1, 200916 yr The first three wouldn't answer the phone and the last two have already hung up. I don't buy that Meyer has hung up. I didn't get that in that press conference by the way that he said it. He probaby stays, but it's not like he's going to look for another job right now. JMO.
