00:00What have I said to you for months?

00:05What have I said to you for months about this guy?

00:08I know he gets credit, he gets them up for big games, he's good at that.

00:11He is now lost at home, since he's been the head coach, to Marshall, an awful Stanford

00:18team, and Northern Illinois.

00:20At home, at Notre Dame Stadium, he's been the coach two years and two weeks, and he's

00:25lost all three of those teams at home.

00:27He doesn't get that team ready for the games where they should win by 50.

00:31He never has them ready for those games, ever.

00:34They're always a sweat.

00:35How is that even possible?

00:38I don't know, but that's what's going to get him chopped after this season.

00:44That's the problem.

00:45See, you can have the big win at Texas A&M, but you negate it and then some when you lose

00:51at home to Northern Illinois.

00:55And he's out there today at his weekly press conference doing the whole, well, you know,

00:59we listen to the hype.

01:00You know, the players listen to the hype.

01:02Oh yeah, well, it's your job to make sure they don't listen to the hype.

01:06It's your job to make sure that they treat Northern Illinois the same way that they treated

01:11Texas A&M the week before that.

01:14That's why it's going to end poorly for Marcus Freeman and South Bend.

01:17I actually heard someone on national television say on Sunday when they lost, and this is

01:28a guy with credibility that's been doing, not only doing college football for 30 years,

01:35but has been playing college football.

01:37This guy is a monster.

01:40And he said, they can only get better from here.

01:44The Fighting Irish.

01:45I literally, I literally spit out my drink and I went, getting better.

01:53I go, wait, so they're going to build off of this and like, get better from it.

01:58It's going to make them better.

01:59I actually, I still haven't gotten over hearing it.

02:03I've had to call a shrink.

02:04I had to call a shaman.

02:06I had to, you know, say, light a candle.

02:09Listen, here's a newsflash for you.

02:11Where I come from, I don't come from that side of the river that, well, they'll get

02:14better from here.

02:15They'll learn from this.

02:16They'll just adjust.

02:17I'm not from that side of the river.

02:19I'm from this side of the river that says, well, if they lost to them, they ain't done

02:23losing.

02:24They're not done losing.

02:25Do you remember when they beat A&M, they literally, the national media said, oh, now they're just

02:31going to run the tables.

02:32They're the five seed in the playoff automatic.

02:35Like are you effing kidding me?

02:38Now, look, because of this new system, they're not done per se, because now in this new system,

02:46one loss, even as bad a loss as that one, if you win the rest of your games, you're

02:51probably still going to get in there.

02:54What are they?

02:55I agree with you.

02:56Oh, I don't think they're going to run the table, but they're going to sell you that

02:58same thing that it's still all, you know, it's like the Aaron Boone line.

03:02It's still all right in front of them.

03:04It's still right in front of them.

03:05They win all their games.

03:07They're going to be there.

03:08What they fall to 15th or 16th in the, uh, in the dopey a people 18th, they fell to,

03:13but that's still like if they win all their games, it's manageable and everybody will

03:17forget that they lost in early September, the Northern Illinois, uh, which, but you

03:21shouldn't because it says something, believe that there's a lot of those games on the schedule.

03:26So a lot of those games on the schedule this year for Notre Dame, a lot of games like that.

03:31Here's another one.

03:32Okay.

03:33They're playing at the Coliseum against USC to end their season in Los Angeles and you're

03:40going to lose to them.

03:42Like is there good enough to beat Notre Dame right now today?

03:45And they got a quarterback and obviously Notre Dame doesn't.
