So he won all those games without top talent, that’s impressive.


This part sure isn't:

Expanding it further, Kelly is 3-8 against opponents ranked in the top 10 at Notre Dame. Five of the eight losses were by 14 points or more, including that 28-point loss to Alabama in 2012 — the last time Notre Dame played for a national championship.

Freeman joined the staff in January. He was hardly responsible for last years class.

After Zorich said it sounded like Kelly wasn’t a good recruiter, Lemming quipped, “He’s good in the house, but he likes to golf more than he likes to go out and recruit.” He would add, “Show me a coach who is a prolific golfer and I’ll show you a lousy recruiter.”

You trying to say Nick is lazy and a golfer too, yet still destroyed Kelly twice?

Weird but ok.

It’s almost like it makes the whole point of the article absurd.

Well, he did pick Kyle Hamilton out of UGA's back yard. That one still stings...

No, because Saban has actually won something. Unlike Kelly.

The point is going way over your head

Saban is a good golfer. Lemming said if a college coach is a good golfer it means he's a lazy recruiter. Obviously Saban isn't a lazy recruiter, so Lemming's remark about equating golf ability to recruiting diligence is stupid. Get it now?

Stop taking what Lemming said so literal. When you got the skins on the wall like Saban no one can question you. But, when you have the coach of ND not even recruiting a kid who went to a Catholic high school who may win the Heisman trophy that is a red flag. Mind you Bryce Young is a good student and I mention that for those who bring up ND's academic requirements.

Loser mentality. Hes going to fit in well there.

An alpha like Saban would have gone in and changed his mind anyway.

BS. If Bryce didn't go to Bama he was going to USC which is even more reason why Kelly should've recruited him because he had to play USC every season.

Are you one of those Alabama fans who would like to see Mario Cristobal replace Saban because he's such an outstanding recruiter? Because Kelly has had higher ranked classes than Cristobal on multiple occasions.

Recruiting isn't the only reason I think Cristobal may be a suitable replacement for Saban. Cristobal also knows how to develop offensive line talent. Hence, look at our current offensive line. We need coaches like Cristobal.
