ny 0 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Not to sound like a pessimist, but until they perform on the field it doesn't matter how he sounds. You don't go from weak minded to strong minded over night, it takes time. Which I don't think BK has. To little to late, BK settled after 2015, then 2016 happened. He has to win at least 9 games and I don't think this team can do. Hope I am wrong but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golson5 221 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 This team has the talent to do it. Better s&c then last year. Better coaching. Hungrier. We just won 10 games 2 years ago. You're acting like it was a decade. We'll be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golson5 221 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Meh we will see. Team had the talent last year and went 4-8. With an AWFUL D coordinator. A strength coach that wasn't physically able to do it anymore. And some bad luck in games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait until the season is over and then you will have all of your questions answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edcubby 2 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Plain and simple...if the kids believe in the program it will translate to the field. Then the coaching on the field has to be believable. Love it! Go Irish!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big23Head 2,499 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Sampson is putting out an article this week. Some highlights were players are more excited and feel excited to work out. Also, players from EEs to 5th yrs are seeing gains and changes in definition and strength. For the seniors and 5th years, I think that highlights a huge problem with the past S&C program as they really should be maintaining for the most part IMO.

golson5 221 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Lots of his changes have been made. Lots of momentum and energy. If we have no off field issues like we've had so many lately I think this team is going to play really well. Tough schedule but I'm pumped!

ObieKnobbe 47 Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Dude looks like he lifts weights morning, noon, and night. From the looks of him at his age he doesn't only preach it he could do it. That is a good thing to rub off on our players. How can you not be excited about this guy?!

The change that needed to happen didn't. There's not a lot of historical evidence large staff turnover in year eight leads to prosperity. The new coaches could be great hires, but more likely were too little too late, and were needed a few years back when there was evidence to support significant change in the program.

The new coaches could be great hires, but more likely were too little too late, and were needed a few years back when there was evidence to support significant change in the program. I would agree with you on that but Notre Dame is different. We still pulled a top 15 recruiting class after going 4-8 which very few schools could do in the country. Teams like Clemson built their way to a national championship with talent like that. I am going to remain optimistic about the program, BK has been re-energized by this staff and believe it or not we have had several recruits say they really liked him including one of our most recent CB commits. Hell if you look at the video he is even in the weight room and in on drills (you can hear him say bend the knee eyes up), these are all things we have never seen him do before and I hope and pray that he finally has given people control and realizes these people know wtf they are doing and realizes his job is to oversee the operation. If he has done that I believe we have good things to come. Edited February 16, 2017 by ObieKnobbe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you in general but when you say a few years back when do you mean exactly? I mean this team did win 10 games and went to a fiesta bowl just 2 years ago. I would've been more then happy to have bvg gone after 2015 but other then that I don't remember clear evidence supporting entire staff turnover.
