Lucky for you guys I can read lips....
SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Notre Dame's quest for a national championship began when players lined up for fourth-and-goal from the 3-yard line during spring practice.
The situation itself wasn't unique. Coaches simulate pressure and game-deciding plays all the time. Yet just before the snap, coach Brian Kelly threw the offense a curveball -- or, actually, a soccer ball.
"Score with a soccer ball," Kelly told the group, placing the ball in front of center Sam Mustipher. "Find a way."
A 41-8 loss to the Hurricanes and their turnover chain ended Notre Dame's chances of making its first College Football Playoff appearance.
"That was a chaotic environment. It's either fight or flight," Kelly said. "And it starts with me. I did a poor job of preparing them. If we're playing our best, we beat Miami. We didn't play our best and the environment had something to do with it, so I have to create an environment that prepares them for that, so it doesn't happen again."
Those boys were shook before they stepped off the bus.
Make no mistake, gentlemen.
We took their souls from them that night.
We ripped their hearts out out of their chests and showed them the beating, dripping bloody mess, still beating, while they took their last breath.
It was so bad, Kelly has been stripped of any sense, and likely his very sanity. That program is done with Kelly, he’s a dead man walking.
And I agree, this may fundamentally change them as a program, forcing them to finally join the ACC as a regular member rather than some snotty, too-good-to-be-a-regular-member arrogant fūckfaces that they are.
