Notre Dame fans have not been exactly happy this season, but compared to last year we were able to at least take the bags off our heads.  Then Notre Dame had to go and crush us at the end of the season by losing to the Syracuse Orangemen 24 to 23.

Syracuse?  Really?  The same Syracuse who had only won 2 games and just announced they were firing their head coach?

I’ve been resisting the urge to jump on the “Charlie must go” bandwagon for a long time now, but this is ridiculous.  There is absolutely no excuse for what happened yesterday.  It’s time to put the big contract and superstar offensive playcaller picture of Charlie Weis behind us and move on.  Notre Dame fired Bob Davie and Tyrone Willingham, and their records were almost identical.  It’s becoming very obvious to me that the Fighting Irish were a decent team during Weis’ first two years only due to the sheer talent on the team – not due to the amazing game plan and strategy put together by the Coach.

After the loss to Syracuse, Charlie Weis said he was sick to his stomach for the seniors.  While I appreciate that he hates his seniors had to end their Notre Dame career with a ridiculously embarassing loss at home, Weis better start worrying about his job.  Maybe it’s time to go back to the NFL.
