"Now Brian Kelly looks to prove it wasn't a blip on the radar. That this is an elite program, not just a

"I'm the toughest critic of myself. You guys can write whatever you want, but I promise you I'm harder
on myself." — Notre Dame senior quarterback Tommy Rees on the pressure of his new job (Chicago
Tribune)
