It’s tempting to pile on here and abuse Weis but let’s not.

He tried, he sucked. He’s gone. End of story.


I disagree.

Weis’ attitude since his tenure here, with every indication being that he feels totally “screwed” by the University that (very unjustly) gave him tens of millions in severance comp (that very easily could’ve gone toward need-based aid/scholarships), tells me all I need to know about the man.

And that’s putting aside numerous other stories of boorish, classless behavior — a couple of which are first hand — during his time on campus.

Fuck that piece of shit.


This is a howler

We have an eleventy gazillion dollar endowment. If we really wanted to give out more aid, we could.

Taken at face value, I'm understanding you're comment to read if you need financial aid to attend ND, the school is better off without you.


Isn’t that ND’s message? It’s shameful. *

I thought you were being sarcastic, but then did a double take and thought it better to clarify.


And the people that wrote that contract... *

Weis was one of the first people to tweet out congratulations to Kyle Rudolph for winning the NFL Man of the Year. Of course, Rudolph had not yet won it (he won the fan vote), so while it was a nice gesture by CW, it was just another example of his inattention to detail, which had cost him so much while head coach. The irony did not escape me.


See post below, he was reading Rock’s last night *
