    Timing is grotesque

    That's the word from Dan Hoard who was on WLW earlier this evening and I completely agree. ND and BK are equally to blame. There is no reason both could not have waited until after the bowl game.

      Recruiting, and the fact that they've got a massive alumni base who they need to keep happy.

      You can give it a patriotic name, but it still sucks.

        Yeah, I have to agree, recruiting for ND would fall apart,

        ND's "interim" coach just got a job with Akron. I don't know how they could hold a class together if they waited another month. When Meyer left Utah for FLA it was the same deal, except he coached the bowl game.

          BK is about to find out what insane fans are like. They will be on him like white on rice from the first game.

              I don't know if this is a joke or not, but it's telling of the whole mentality up there.

                Amen, brother.

                No one begrudges BK the chance to reach for the golden ring.

                Bailing out on a 12-0 team prior to a Sugar Bowl is simply grotesque.

                  Year 3 of his deal better produce a BCS bowl, or they'll be shipping him up to Bristol for a TV gig faster than you can say "Golden Dome"

                    Recruiting I understand, I think the timing is horrbile in terms of it coming out right before the banquet that is supposed to be FOR THE PLAYERS

                      In a few months, that domain will sell for a nice price.

                        You can't blame a guy for following his dream. I do appeciate all he did for UC too. I feel sorry for the players and blame the NCAA and Notre Dame. Just not right to do that to them and all the did and it also shows it is all about money and not the kids.

                          The timing is pathetic all around.

                          If that is what he wants, I can't blame him for going to take a chance on it. I hope he fails (but that is mostly because I hate ND). But doing it after a 12-0 season and the day of the banquet is pretty lousy. I guess we can't get a break as Bearcats - even in success things have a spin.

                          Oh well - the motto is next man in. I can't wait to see who the next coach is. Hopefully MT will work some magic again.

                            What a loser. ***** had no idea how good he had it here. Sorry but I hope he fails big time at ND and I think he will. Man he had it so made here. Knucklehead. Maybe we can get us a coach who can win the big bowl games anyway. Don't give up Bearcat nationn we have a great returning core for next year.

                              One million dollar buyout should pay the hotel bill and food costs for the UC team during their stay in New Orleans.
