De-committed to Kelly towels?

[udonkey]

FWIW...I bought two of the towels. Didn't work so well.

I disagree - the group that organized the towels raised ~$15k, which ultimately ends up $30k w/ the match. They worked well...

They contributed to new facilities which will bring in our next coach and give the Big East champions a place to practice as early as next fall.

I just hope no one does anything to his house or his family...his family had nothing to do with this...

Yeah I don't think anyone thought of that.. At least I hope not that would be crossing the line

His wife and kids are nice from what I have heard...my aunt and uncle are neighbors with them and say they are really nice people...

You of all people should probably voluntarily disappear for a bit if you know what I mean.

Took the thought right out of my mind!

Judging from the threats that Weiss received and the beating that Clausen was given a few weeks ago, I would say that BK should be more worried about upset ND fans more than any upset UC fan.

Well I hope Kelly likes living in a glass house, because he just signed up for it. Listen as a former Irish fan, the Irish nation is insane. Clocking your starting qb....kids getting taunted at school......ND talks about class, but I have found that ND fans anything but. They expect championships, remember they don't need a football conference, but they need to be Big East in all other sports.....

we should make some "Lying Kelly" towels

"Cincinnati Committed to the Cats"

How about "Committed to the Bearcat Players" towel instead

great idea.

also like the idea of mailing the bk towels directly to his notre shame office.

I'm going to bring my "Cincy Committed to Kelly" towel to the Sugar Bowl and put a piece of duct tape over 'Kelly'. Then i'll just write in the name of whoever's coaching us at the time.

Why all the criticism for Kelly? Who cares, he put UC on the map. This is a Footall PROGRAM, it is bigger than the coach. Now that he has proven coaches can win at UC, other coaches will want to come. Just lay off of it, and forget about it. Coaches will come and go, but who cares, the players are all that matter.

It really isn't, if you're honest about things. That's why MT has such an important job right now -- hire someone to keep the momentum going.

In a few more seasons, if more BCS bowls happen, you can call it a program. Right now it's 3 great years under a top coach -- now departed. If you got odds from Vegas, it's probably just as likely that UC slips back into mediocrity as it is that they find a new coach that can keep bringing BCS Bowls.

Can they do it? Of course they can. I believe in Mike Thomas. But it's silly to say that it's a program and not coach. If that were the case, losing Kelly would be a momentary setback as opposed to a rather large turning point in Cincinnati Athletics history.

Thats actually the best idea ive heard yet. Im going to copy that. Maybe "Cincy committed to Cincy", or "Cincy committed to Mardy", or "Cincy committed to winning"
