irishrb 0 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 It's BK...He'll go back to fully calling the shots on O. I wouldn't be surprised if he brings Quinn to the offensive coaching ranks either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishMojo25 0 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Quinn back as the OC and running the uptempo that we saw at Cincy?? Sounds to good to be true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Quinn but I think I'd rather see more dedication to a strong running game, seems to be the only thing missing from NDs offense.

NDMJ1984 0 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Phil Longo? https://www.google.com/amp/www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/college-football-polls-fcs-sam-houston-state-bearkats-phil-longo-feature-103116.amp.html?client=safari This guy's "prolific" offense put up all of 7 pts in last week's FCS semi-final vs. James Madison. And the 7 pts came late in 4th quarter with James Madison up 65-0. No thanks. How bout Sterlin Gilbert from Texas? He's a QB coach by trade, which we also need, power rushing offense, got great play from a true freshman center, runs it out of the shotgun spread as Kelly likes, seems like a good fit. And I've gotta think we can pay him more than USF. He's the leading candidate at Ole Miss though, so have to move quick to get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dardo 19 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I don't think it really matters. Here are Notre Dame's rank in total offense and scoring offense throughout his 7 years at ND, under 3 different OCs. Scoring offenses 2016: 55th 2015: 34th 2014: 40th 2013: 74th 2012: 80th 2011: 49th 2010: 66th Total offenses 2016: 64th 2015: 27th 2014: 34th 2013: 68th 2012: 54th 2011: 35th 2010: 61st They have literally NEVER had a good offense under Kelly, even as the OCs all end up with head coaching jobs, so I'm not sure what we expect to change this year.

corysold 0 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Does anyone even know what Sanford's duties were that need to be replaced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stdntDrvr 12 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Does anyone even know what Sanford's duties were that need to be replaced? Being a 'yes man' for Kelly is a full time job. Is there anyone else on the staff that could step in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goirish83 0 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Does anyone even know what Sanford's duties were that need to be replaced? Yeah as far as I knew he was just the backup quarterbacks coach, he was extremely underused here and it was a complete disservice that kelly didn't give him more input. But then again he wasn't one of Kelly's boys. I dont understand the point of ever bringing him in if you weren't going to use him anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes perfect sense considering Kelly is basically the offensive coordinator on game day. Let's just hope that part of the offseason changes include Kelly finally giving up the offense to the OC.

ndomer4 532 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I say let Kelly run the offense. We hired some guy from Cincy with one of the best offenses in college football, teams had fits with his up tempo offense. We have not seen it once here and have been stuck with incredibly average offenses the last 7 years. Go back to what made him successful and what we thought we were hiring. This is the best option as well all have thought he handcuffs whoever he names OC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Chris 79 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Excuse me,but what the f#*k does is matter who we hire as an O coordinator?!! Kelly calls the plays on gameday. Always has, always will. Everyone else is just a practice puppet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo88 74 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Excuse me,but what the f#*k does is matter who we hire as an O coordinator?!! Kelly calls the plays on gameday. Always has, always will. Everyone else is just a practice puppet. It's doesn't. Just as with the talented players we bring in under BK, you can expect underperformance from assistants too. It starts and ends with Kelly and I don't give a $hit about who we hire or recruit until he's gone. Because none of it matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
