He will not fit in here at all. He is not a players' coach. Watch a few sideline antics in videos. Very quick to throw players under the bus. "South" Bend not the south. He will not fit into our unique culture. This time next year, many will be asking "what have we done?"
yeah, like Saban and Muschamp in 2003 losing their minds, cussing out our players never worked out either.

All 12 of Kelly's regular season wins in 2012 were vacated because of an academic cheating scandal. That is the year they got bent over by Alabama while Manti Teo was still looking for his girlfriend.

I had high hopes. Little bit numbfounded. Prefer him over Riley so there's that.

Others like me will get over it and cheer him on.

Exactly. He's been cherry picking his schedule and gamifying the rankings for years.

If he can coach he will have all the resources he could ever ask for here. No excuses and no hiding.

Horrible fricking hire. 11-14 against ranked teams and constantly gets his arse kicked by good football teams when he plays them. What a joke.

Just think about this. Pulled the coach away from a media darling. That goes a long way. They media gushed over him his whole time at ND. The laughing stock that our coaches have been in the media's eyes for the past 16 years is over,at least it should be.

This is a better hire than the last two coaches and it's not even close. Is it my ideal hire? Honestly, I don't know because it wasn't on my radar at all. But I can't complain about it.

I don't know why I expected more out of Woodward anyway though. He made a terrible hire at Texas A&M giving Jimbo Fisher 10 years and $75 million guaranteed which had to be increased to 10 years $95 million last year. Horrible hires. Yea Chris Peterson at Washington was great for Washington. Jay Johnson was a decent hire for LSU baseball but wasn't close to top of the list. Should've noticed then that the football hire if needed would be awful and here we are.
