www.BLUEANDGOLD.com OCT. 31, 2016 13 UNDER THE DOME THEY SAID IT "I read a recap after the game titled 'Brian Kelly takes blame for Notre Dame's loss at NC State' and then went on to read quotes from the head coach about not second-guessing the number of throws and how he was surprised that the passing game wasn't as effective as he thought it would be. What? Excuse me? "Kelly called the snapping in the game from his team 'atrocious.' It was bad enough to see him verbally undress [Sam] Mustipher on the sideline following the fourth- down bad snap, but to search and search for that accountability from the coach and find little of it was possibly worse." —Mike Farrell, Rivals national recruiting director "I'm beginning to wonder who's next for Brian Kelly to blame? Donald Trump? I've always respected Notre Dame and I think it's one of the great institutions for higher learning in this country, but why would anyone want play for Brian Kelly? He's a miserable human being and blames everyone but himself." — Paul Finebaum, ESPN "And it was one thing when the Irish were losing close games to teams like Stan- ford, Clemson and even Texas on the road to start the season. Losing to Michi- gan State isn't going to cause anybody to grab a pitchfork, either, but Duke and NC State? Losing games like those has just never been acceptable at Notre Dame. To be clear, unless the Irish completely bottom out over their final six games and finish somewhere in the neighborhood of 4-8, I still believe Kelly is back in 2017. He's accomplished enough in South Bend that he should be allowed a bad season before the axe drops on him, but the possibility exists that he may not." — Tom Fornelli, CBS Sports OF THE WEEK "Everyone wants to be a part of something when it's thriving; but you'll never truly know who is in your corner until the fight gets tough."

Z6T2 IDBGQ416 O ffer ends 7 /15/17 "I think it's easy to go in that direction. But for me, especially with the success that I've had in coaching, I've won those games. It's not just by luck. So it's important to drill down deeper and to find out why we win those games. I think I have a pretty good understanding of why we won those games, and I think it goes to our preparation and what we have to do and how we prepare our football team." Head coach Brian Kelly on if there is a snowball effect when you lose close games early in the season PHOTO BY BILL PANZICA
