“He simply walked into a hornet’s nest right now because the season is literally on the brink. It looks like a trainwreck from a distance,” Finebaum said. “We’re not there, but everyone now is just going to start piling on him from his own fanbase, which is the worst, to fanbases around the country, especially Notre Dame fans who I think are taking great pleasure in his failings.”

“There’s really no way to sugarcoat a 3-year experience that has not gone particularly well,” he continued. “I’m aware like you are what he did the first year. There’s almost nothing for Brian Kelly to say right now other than to salvage what looks like a really fantastic recruiting class and turn this thing around quickly. Because no one is going to be forgiving for a guy who earns $10 million a year, who has the highest paid assistant coaching staff in the country, who has 4 losses but quite frankly probably should have 6.”
