Brian Kelly will decide this week
Cincinnati's Brian Kelly, who apparently is the "Apple" of Notre Dame's eye, says that he "Will make a decision on his coaching status by Saturday". We are assuming that means will he or won't he go to Notre Dame. Oh...and this caveat...he won't guarantee that he will coach Cincinnati in the Sugar Bowl versus Florida.
**Note. Kelly will according to reports, be meeting the folks from Notre Dame on Tuesday, somewhere in New York**
Check out what Mr. Kelly had to say on the Dan Patrick Show...RIGHT HERE.

Kelly did also say that he was negotiating an extension with Cincinnati; which is all well and good, but do you have a problem with this like I do? It smells...really bad. I get the whole "Opportunity of a Lifetime" thing. I get that it's a chance to "Move Up the Coaching Ladder"...that part I get, nobody can begrudge that.
No, the problem is how Kelly is playing this. Why would you throw that out there today? Why would you talk about it at all. Lay low this week. If you want to say you are on vacation...hide. Don't come out and say that you may bail out on your CURRENT EMPLOYER...if you feel like it. That is one of the MANY big things wrong with College Football. If you are under contract and in the midst of a season, you shouldn't be allowed to leave...period. If you don't like it...don't sign a contract.

The other part I blame on the HIGHLY overrated clowns at Notre Dame...and other "Big Name" schools but mostly the ASS CLOWNS AT THE NCAA. There should be...UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES...coaches being allowed to negotiate out of a contract to go coach at another school until the season is OFFICIALLY OVER...FOR EVERYONE.
The NCAA can fix this all by themselves...IF THEY WANTED TO. It helps foster an atmosphere of TOTAL AND COMPLETE GREED on their part. What would it hurt for their members to wait 1 month...after the holiday's to do this stuff. It's not fair to the kids at the smaller schools. In this case CINCINNATI. They had the dream season of dream season's for the program and yet they may not even have a head coach for their BCS Game against Florida. Come on TELL ME....WHAT IS FAIR ABOUT THAT?
