He "liked" a tweet calling for the firing of ND's D-Coordinator.
Good luck Donovan. Kelly publicly humiliates his own D-coordinator--how much do you think he will respect you.

Recall, after Kelly caused the death of the ND intern he simply moved on to coach his team. No remorse whatsoever. Jeter will find out what it is like playing for a sociopath.

If he actually did that on his own it was probably because they didn't call for HIS head.

Of course he is saying it was someone who manages his twitter account which leads me to this question.

What is the purpose of tweeting if you aren't actually doing the tweeting?

I'd lay even money that most head coaches have an underling that manages their accounts even if they themselves do tweet at times. Narduzzi's account tweets frequently throughout the day and I can't imagine that he's worried about who's birthday it is when he's got meetings and practices.

A lot of high profile people now have social media teams. Quite often posts you see on Twitter, Facebook, etc are not done by the actual person. And it probably does create a layer when things like this happen. If there's anything controversial that's mostly become the standard response. In some cases it's probably true and in others it's complete BS.

Additionally some people don't even wanna be bothered so they get someone to do it for them. In today's world coaches almost have to have a social media presence so someone in administration will handle the twitter account.

does narduzzi handle all of his own twitter messages? or does his social media director do some of it? we do have a social media guy.

i'm guessing narduzzi doesn't do 100% of it.

Given how busy these guys are, particularly in season, my guess is it's a mixture.

With Twitter being the source of "showing some love" someone probably needs to be manning the ship and it's very unlikely Narduzzi can spend that much time on Twitter.

That is the stupidest excuse ever. He isnt Donald or Hillary... he does his own tweeting. They have an NDfootball account for the team.

Speaking of TWITTER... everyone should drop Jeter since he is all about the attention.

Anyone dumb enough to believe that Kelly personally went on Twitter hours after that game and "liked" a tweet calling for his DC's firing is probably not intelligent enough to tie his own shoes. I know you as a poster well enough to know you can't be one of those people.

All of the HCs have social media coordinators who handle all of this stuff. Kelly's F'd up and bumped the wrong button.

Reminds me of a similar blooper that happened to my buddy. He and his wife share a Facebook account. She was perusing the FB page for the community we live in and accidentally "liked" a post comparing one of our city councilmen to a nazi. My buddy, who is good friends with the councilman, had no idea that ever happened. His wife didn't realize she had done thar. Pure accident. At the next community event the guy comes over to him and just says "Nice Rick. Real nice" and walked away. My buddy had no idea WTF he was talking about. His wife didn't even realize she had done that. Hilarity ensued.

Can't blame the kid for wanting to play for a winner.

What have they won again? Remind me. No national championships in nearly 30 years and the most recent one they played for resulted in an ass kicking. They've also been humiliated in damn near every BCS bowl they've played in. Buy hey, no one pounds Rutgers in the Pinstripe Bowl better.

I know so why did he choose Notre Dame? He had some top winning programs to choose from like Michigan or Alabama.

Notre Dame isn't a winner but Michigan is? Michigan has played in two BCS level bowls the past ten years, and went three years without a bowl. Notre Dame has played in three BCS level bowls (including a national championship game) in the past ten years and went two years without a bowl. Note Dame played in the Fiesta Bowl last year, Michigan in the Citrus Bowl. Please explain how Michigan is a winner but Notre Dame is not.

some offers are not committable. He finally got a real committable ND offer not long ago. BK put a time stamp on it, and Jeter had to make a quicker decision than his planned halloween announcement.
 
Good point above. When scrolling thru a twittter feed it is really easy to inadvertently hit the like button. I've never intentionally used it but noticed one day that I had liked several tweets.

I invite you to check out their head to head record and their current trend lines respectively. Last year both teams finished 10-3. ND got their heads handed to them by OSU and Michigan curb stomped Florida. Bowls are a popularity and money making contest if you're not in the Final 4 playoff, so Fiesta versus Citrus is meaningless

Current trend line? Notre Dame went to a BCS bowl last year, Michigan the Citrus Bowl.

Michigan has played Hawaii, Central Florida, and Colorado at home this year. Notre Dame has played at Texas, vs Nevada, and vs Michigan State this year. Pretty big difference.

Notre Dame won 31-0 the last time they played, and has won two of the past three in the series.

Last year both teams finished the season 10-3. Please note that BCS Bowls don't exist anymore. Notre Dame travels so they were gifted the Fiesta Bowl, where they got their heads handed to them by OSU. Michigan was selected by the Citrus and destroyed Florida. Michigan has won 6 of the last 9 head to head match ups. As of right now Michigan is in the Top 5 and ND is unranked after getting blasted at home by MSU.

If Notre Dame played the tomato cans Michigan did, all at home, they would be top 5 as well.

Michigan lost to OSU, at home, 42-13. Notre Dame lost 44-28.

That was a really weak Florida team last year. Coming off two loses by a combined 56-17, the Citrus Bowl wasn't close to being equal to the Fiesta Bowl vs OSU.

Michigan hasn't been as good as Notre Dame for years.

And yet they've beaten ND head to head 6 of the last 9 time they've played.

Florida was ranked 18th or so going into the Bowl game

Notre Dame is 2-3 against them under Kelly, winning two of the past three. You were saying about current trends? Kelly took Charlie Weis' team and was within a few seconds of beating them his first year at ND as well.

Michigan lost to Ohio State, at home, by 29 points, Notre Dame lost to them, in a much better bowl than Michigan went to, by 16. But yep, Michigan better.

Florida was the best of a bad division. Their final 6 games last year?

2pt win over 4-8 Vanderbilt
10pt win over 3-9 South Carolina
6pt win over 3-9 Florida Atlantic
25pt loss to 10-3 FSU
14pt loss to 14-1 Bama
34pt loss to 10-3 Michigan

Florida was not a good team by end of the year.
 
Michigan as been ordinary for years. Vastly over rated in a crap conference for many years. But hiring Harbaugh was a almost desperate move to bring the program back from the malaise of Hoke and the unpopular system of RR. So at least the powers that be understood with Meyer at OSU, the arms race is for real.

ND due to many structural issues simply can't bring in the marginal students who happen to be great athletes. They recruit well and compared to many programs simply have better talent. In the end, Kelly is simply not well rounded enough to beat a top program. Going through DC's over and over is not the answer. Kelly has shortcomings on many fronts.
 
If you want to look at Saragin Ratings over the past six years, Notre Dame is averaging #20 while Michigan is averaging #34. In terms of SOS, Michigan is at #35 while Notre Dame is at #25 on average. There hasn't been a season since Kelly got there that Michigan had a tougher schedule than Notre Dame.

Michigan has the #109 ranked SOS thus far in 2016 while Notre Dame is at #22. Michigan has played -

vs Hawaii #150
vs UCF #98
vs Colorado #43

Notre Dame has played -

at Texas #33
vs Nevada #91
vs Michigan State #28

Reverse the schedules and the results would be reversed as well.

Surprising that so many declared fans (won't say alumni because we don't know) on this board have so little respect for our University, players and staff, yet profess Joepa level adoration for and blindness to the faults and shortcomings of another University and coach. While these "fans" show no hesitation in pointing out and criticizing the deficiencies and even the smallest mistakes of the University and/or staff (no problem if constructive), they do not apply this criteria to that other University, but take the position of ardent defenders. Notre Dame can do no wrong. " But, but, we are only speaking the truth." Sounds an awful lot like the cultists to our east.

Notre Dame is an excellent university, but it is not Stanford or an Ivy league level school. It's football program is not elite.

Many here are sounding like ND recruiters.
