Yeah, Tee was all Kelly's fault

I guess Kelly is the one that couldn't get his grades up and make a good enough score on his ACTs to get past admissions. That is apparently the reason Tee had to leave school. And yeah, losing Darby sucks but it happens to a lot of teams every year. It is hard to recruit for ND, especially when ND hasn't been very good in 20 years. I have a feeling Neal may have to play DB this season instead of slot. Kelly has done a great job with recruiting but unless he can move the warmer climate to South Bend and offer some perks that schools like USC, Florida, and TX can offer, it's always going to be an uphill battle. Nobody seems to remember what a great job he has done with some true studs in the last 3 years (Tuitt, Kiel, Neal, Jaylon Smith, Davaris Daniels). All anyone remembers are the ones that got away. And he closed the deal with Lynch but Lynch's heart was never in it. That's not on Kelly.

        Well, of course I'm correct. - MAS - 12:27pm 6/16/12
        
        Every program? What is wrong with you? - Rocket91 - 2:56pm 6/15/12
        
        No, I don't think Michigan has reached elite status. - MAS - 3:22pm 6/15/12

  - Can you explain what is "above average" about the ND football program? - MAS - 11:14am 6/15/12
    - I said above average team with a substandard QB...translates to around average on the whole. [NT] - Vstorm07 - 11:52am 6/15/12
      - Well, that and the turnovers. - MAS - 11:59am 6/15/12
        
        Who was responsible for over 75% of those turnovers? - IrishfaninTX - 11:58pm 6/16/12
        
        who is arguing this? - ChicagoIrish - 1:35pm 6/15/12
        
        Who is arguing that cheating and rotten luck are to blame for these losses? - MAS - 2:09pm 6/15/12
    - there are 121 FBS programs, I'd say we're safely above average in most categories - ChicagoIrish - 11:35am 6/15/12
      - Got it. For decades, being "above average" at ND meant being in the top 10. - MAS - 11:42am 6/15/12
        
        If you think that's what above avg still means at ND, you're crazy. Also, if you don't think BK's - JDriveSthND - 8:30pm 6/15/12
        
        I agree that UM has a similar talent level. - MAS - 12:33pm 6/16/12
        
        Seems to me you guys are talking about different populations - Flanner525 - 1:50pm 6/15/12
        
        Indeed we are. - MAS - 2:03pm 6/15/12
        
        Well since he was talking about Michigan first - Flanner525 - 2:23pm 6/15/12
        
        Mostly because I do not agree that ND is that close to UM at this point. - MAS - 2:28pm 6/15/12
        
        Threve steps ahead of us - Flanner525 - 2:40pm 6/15/12
        
        Got it, quarterback is the crucial variable. - MAS - 3:24pm 6/15/12
        
        correct - ChicagoIrish - 1:54pm 6/15/12

        Ah, so it's ND's above average status in committing turnovers that is holding it back? - MAS - 11:53am 6/15/12
        
        enlighten us as to the full list of arbitrary categories, please - ChicagoIrish - 1:33pm 6/15/12
        
        Incorrect. - MAS - 2:22pm 6/15/12

        I do not. It usually means I'm communicating clearly. - ChicagoIrish - 1:55pm 6/15/12
