In reply to: An Old Coach 's message, "He really only had two classes. The expectations aren't realistic, but you have to know that going in. I have to think getting blown out on prime time national tv didn't help. I don't know why they think Meyer is the answer. He's coming into a world at Notre Dame that has nothing in common with Utah, no matter how successful they've been. The day he walks into ND, the clock is running." on 15:55:55 12/02/04 Thu

He knows what they want. 10-1 every year and Top 10. The team to have a 3.0 average with 2-3 first round draft picks every year. It goes without saying that none of these kids should get arrested, get in fights or assault their girl friends. You could do it once in a while but no school can sustain that any more. Being an assistant at ND gives him a lot of insight I guess. I don't think much of what he brings from Utah is necessarily transferable. No Tennessee's or Michigan on Utah's schedule.

Don't discredit Meyer's coaching ability. His team at Utah would whoop Tennessee or Michigan this year and he should be able to get Notre Dame to the same point. (NT) -- gorams, 21:12:51 12/02/04 Thu
My point is Meyer knows exactly what he's getting into at Notre Dame because he already coached there. I'm not talking about his coaching ability. (NT) -- Rambacker, 23:09:37 12/02/04 Thu

The stakes are even higher now and the business is more cut throat. You may be right but I think it's like being president. people will tell you what to expect but once you get there it is a different ball game. (NT) -- An Old Coach, 08:43:41 12/03/04 Fri
