Haha, check out the one Oregon player trying to catch something thrown at him and then taunting the crowd before his teammate comes and restrains him. Think Chip Kelly gave his team a talking-to about that kind of behavior after the Blount incident?

Don't mind the motherless Tucson locals, that's just their way of saying, "Hello." But seriously, U of A sucks.

Clausen needs to sucker punch the fat man, Charlie Weis for ruining Notre Dame football.

#4, Because Notre Dame football was doing so well before Charlie Weis arrived, right?

Hinton, once again you prove yourself an idiot.
You previously parroted a story about the ND plane tracking being turned off as though it were a meaningful sign about a coaching change. I posted a link in the comments to that entry that showed the tracking was turned off in June.
The very article you link to about the Clausen house for sale says it's been listed since July. July!!! Do you even bother to read? And somehow putting a house up for sale last July is a sign that suddenly now "fuels speculation" about Clausen leaving with Weis to the NFL??? What exactly did it mean last July?
I stand corrected, your bosses at Yahoo are the idiots for paying you to do this job.

Those Arizona fans are thugs. I have been at other UofA games where they have thrown bottles and full cups of soda down onto the visiting team and band. Apparently that's okay at Arizona, the administration has never done anything to curtail it. The fan that hit the cheerleader and gave her a concussion should be expelled and doing jail time, but nothing will happen, believe me.

Where was security in all of this? Watching the game, one just knew there was going to be problems when Arizona students piled out of the stands onto the sideline with 1 min. 33 secs to go and then watched Oregon march down the field and score to send it into over time. No way anyone who throws objects out of the stands should be allowed to attend games plus they should lawfully be charged for their actions.

Matt, maybe you should actually READ the article. The house has been on the market since mid-July. This is not a new development.

The Fighting Irish are 6-5 with losses to powers such as Navy and UConn. Can we talk about a good team or how about a feel good story. ND is an average team with way too much hype that would be lucky to win three games in a major conference. How about Tebow, Oregon, Stanford, TCU, Ryan Mallett, Cinn, well pick a story but please enough about a 6-5 team from SOUTH Bend. PLEASE!!!!!

First off let me say I'm the epitome of an Irish Hater. I like it when they lose. I don't like what's happening to them as a program. I've never wished all this drama on them. Kind of feel sorry for them. But it's the Irish and I know they'll be back on that upper echelon in the years to come. They can't be this bad forever. With that said, there is no reason Jimmy should stay. He's losing way too much talent for him to have a productive season next year. This year he's proven that he's a playmaker. In Jimmy's defense, it's not his fault ND's D $ucked major, major, I mean major @$$. So Jimmy should bolt for the NFL while his stock is at its highest peak. He comes back for one more year and his stock will plummet. Big time! I don't like the Irish but I know talent. And Jimmy has it. It'll be fun seeing Jimmy in the NFL. And that's why I love the game. Extraordinary people doing extraordinary things with a football.

matt.
so there we have it. your reliable source- long time con artist shill eric hansen of the south bend tribune who takes payoffs from notre dame's enemies to plant fraudulent articles in the south bend tribune and to spread his fraudulent garbage through the media promising to be a reliable source defense for anyone in the media who gets whacked in the civil courts for maliciously spreading false information.
the problems that you have created for yourself in the civil courts and with your employers by putting this trash on the internet cannot be solved by any reliable source defense.
after all, this is the same eric hansen who guaranteed online in writing online ion each of the last 2 seasons that charlie weis would be fired, only to be exposed as the con artist that eric hansen always has been.
you did show a lot of promise with your hate the bcs banner and your closeup film exposures of dishonest college football officiating.
however, now you have fallen right in line with the proprietors of crooked college sports enterprises and the media shills who protect and defend that enterprise.
what a tragic waste of a promising future.

Stay classy, U of A. Your football program is a joke. Did you see the reaction of both Stoops brothers when the Ducks scored to tie the game?! Now those are some true leaders! I guess if I had stormed the field prematurely only to watch my team lose close up, I might be throwing bottles too. Either that or punching opposing players in the face and attempting to attack their fans..... Where was LaGarette Blount in all of this?! He needs to step it up!
Ducks - ROSE BOWL BOUND!!!

#4...we don't need trash like that. Get a life! What good does it do to spew trash about Weis? It just reveals your true character.
That being said, I think ND definitely needs a new coach. I don't think he's the right coach for ND, but he sure works hard at it and gives his best. I hate to see things end up like this, but when a coach comes in a makes big declarations...and then doesn't deliver...well, getting fired is inevitable. It's a fact of life in any arena of life. I'm sure he'll get back into coaching in the NFL and wil probably do very well. I wish him well.

What I don't get is it's a foregone conclusion that Wies is gone. Wouldn't it be better to get him out and get a new coach in sooner rather than later?
Every day they leave it open to speculation, more negative press comes out. More recuits are lost. More coaches get bonuses to officially say they don't want the job.
If tate and flyod leave, llittle jimmy would be well served to go too. They make him look better than he is.

Wow, Clausen is such a giant baby. He has to wear a visor so people can't see his black eye? OH THE HORROR!! It's like he's human or something.
God, what a self-absorbed prick. He can't even let people see his boo-boo. I hope he goes to the NFL and gets cut before fall camp. Show his self-absorbed @$$ that he sucks.

i think next year ND should win their first three games, they start off with the blind center and then a retirement home and then midget university. run charlie run

POST 16 - VALHALLA - the professional thing to do is to wait until the season is over to do the actual firing. You don't gain anything by firing him before the last game...it will only serve to upset the players who are supporting him and kill morale on the final game. There is no way they are going to be able to fire and hire a new coach in only a week - in other words, you can't fully recruit until your search team has interviewed and hired the new coach - so they are not going to lose any recruiting time keeping Weiss for one more week.
And because it is, as you said - a forgone conclusion that he is going to be terminated - you can be certain ND is already drawing up a short list of candidates and putting out feelers. They have already been turned down by Urban Meyer unofficially.

Bryce Harte sucker punched Clausen when Clausen told him even he thought ND sucked, the school sucked, and Weis was a great coach. Apparently, it was more than Bryce could handle. So, Dawmeat held Clausen while Bryce [profane] slapped poor old Jimmy.

Does that give Bama the SI curse for the week?

Clausen was hit by a Girl from the Notre Dame basketball team .She then held him while his girlfriend kicked him in the groin.Clausen's girlfriend left with the basketball player .

matt,
. after being informed of their civil liabilities by us for allowing media shill con artist brian hamilton to post online at the chicago tribune's website the intentionally fraudulent article about the sale of the clausen family house, the owners of the chicago tribune and their attorneys published the following retraction and apology on 11/25/2009. "Editor's note: this story,originally published in Wednesday's edition of the Chicago Tribune's Sports section, included incorrect information that the South Bend, Ind., house owned by the parents of Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen had been sold. The error was a result of a miscommunication between the Century 21 representative and the reporter. The Tribune regrets the error."
now, anyone who has done the due diligence required of any journalist knows or should know that brian hamilton of the chicago tribune and eric hansen, al lesar, and bob wieneke of the south bend tribune , tom dienhard(even before dienhard surfaced at yahoo/rivals) , and other media shill con artists have been publishing online fraudulent information about notre dame football, charlie weis and his staff and their families, and about notre dame's student athletes who also play football and their families, including jimmy clausen with the specific intents of driving recruits and others away from notre dame, destroying notre dame football, and providing a coverup for the operations of crooked college sports enterprises.
in each case, these media shills have been using the resources and names of their employers, without disclosing their civil racketeering activities and illegal payoffs from the proprietors of crooked college sports enterprises in return for conducting these internet con operations( in civil rico terms- wire fraud), thereby exposing themselves and their employers to very serious civil liabilities in the courts.
having been informed by us, the owners of the chicago tribune and their attorneys did their due dilgence, printed the 1st of many retractions and apologies,relieved the chicago tribune and its owners of immense civil liabilities and left brian hamilton right were brian hamilton should be, exposed to economic termination in the civil courts by us.
are eric hansen and his associates at the south bend tribune having similar problems?
they most certainly are.
the owners of the south bend tribune and their attorneys have started to do their due dilgence.
anyone who goes to the online website of the south bend tribune today will find something very surprising-an article by ap writer Tom Withers entitled"Quinn stands by Weis", an article which was published over the very strong objections of eric hanesn, al lesar, and bob wieneke.
other media comanies,such as yahoo are starting to do the same things, with retractions and apologies and terminations of writers and civil lawsuits following right behind.
is it possible that notre dame ad jack swarbrick and father jenkins, as naieve and uninformed victims of these media con operations, will make the most egregious errors of their live and go down in history as the men who destroyed notre dame football by actually firing charlie weis and his staff, despite the very strong objections of key notre dame alums who actually know that the current corrupt officiating, rules enforcement, and rankings systems are the cause of what appear on the surface to be problems with notre dame football and that these problems have absolutely nothing to do with charlie weis and his staff and notre dame's student athletes?
yes, it is possible, even though doing so would be a great tragedy for notre dame football and exactly what the proprietors of crooked college sports enterprises have been paying these media shills for?
will such an egregious error by jack swarbrick and father jenkins( who already has a history of being terrorized into taking actions which have severely damaged notre dame) protect these media shills and the proprietors of crooked college sport enterprises from economic extermination by us in the civil courts?
absolutely not!!!
we already have massive amounts of evidence with more pouring in every day, even on thangsgiving.
while people like matt hinton cannot avoid some of the negative economic consequences of their own actions after being warned, people like matt hinton still do have a chance to save a portion of their futures by fessing up and putting their own retractions and apologies online and providing evidence to us about those persons who put them up to doing what they have done.
matt and others know how to contact us.

#19: No the profesional thing would be for chucky to resign. That ain't happening because he would have to give up some or all of his payout.
For the university, the profestional thing to do would be to sit the team down and explain the reality to them (they already know anyway). It can be done diplomatically, but as sports is supposedly about teaching kids life lessons, they get to learn about performance expectations and not boasting when you can't back it up. Place an assistant coach temporarily in charge and remove the employee who isn't performing up to standards. The kids already gave up 2-3 games ago (come on Uconn even being in the game was wrong let alone losing to them).
What it does is eliminate the questions and articles about how stupid ND was for giving him a 10 year deal. ND can admit they made a mistake, move on and get some positive spin going.

Lots of Catholic haters out there....

As usual way too much press about a mediocre team living off a great tradition. Bores the hell out of most College Football fans and will continue to do so until Notre Dame man up join a conference and take part in the sport of Modern College Football. Each they have nothing to play for except a BCS spot without Conference play they will never return to prominence.
