The Brian Kelly Era Begins...

Time to simply coach football players and win games. Irish fare OK on signing day, somewhere outside the top 20. But does this really matter?

• Listen Now

Brian Kelly is the man. Good or Not so good?

Swarbrick does his job. Can Kelly do his now?

• Listen Now

Weis done. Now what?

Pressures squarely on Jack Swarbrick. Can the Irish land a quality coach?

• Listen Now

What went wrong for Weis?

Was it just a lack of head coaching experience at the college level? Is there hope the administration can land a quality candidate?

• Listen Now

Why Urban Meyer makes sense

Is there truly a "mystique" at Notre Dame that can lure Urban away from Florida? The argument for and against. Brammer and Jordanich go at it.

• Listen Now

Irish program in need of change.

Irish continue downward spiral with lackluster performance against Pitt. Is this the final straw for Weis?

• Listen Now

Weis under fire, and this time, it's justifiable.

Heat is on and for good measure. Navy is a good football team, but not that good. Where was the emotion?

• Listen Now

Will the Irish go 10-2?

Momentum seems to be building as Michael Floyd returns to the lineup. Beat Navy and head to Pitt with a quality win there and the Irish should be dancing in a BCS game.

• Listen Now

Weis needs convincing win.

Definitely a game that will come down to style. Irish need a convincing win to build momentum through the rest of the season.

• Listen Now

Is 5-2 good enough?

Relax, we're 5-2, not 3-4. Yes, we'd love to win with more style and more dominance, but is that realistic?

• Listen Now

Not enough Hail Mary's

Oh so close. Valiant effort by the Irish falls short. What we needed to do to have won the game.

Where's the program year-to-date?

Almost half-way through the season, the Irish are 4-1, and her comes USC. Are we where we need to be at this point in the season to expect an Irish victory?

• Listen Now

Weis comes of age.

5 FG's and Weis decides not to go for it on at least 3 occasions. Is this the maturing of a soon to be great coach?

• Listen Now

Washington is no gimme.

ND should come out on top. But there are no guarantees with this football team, especially as of late. Will Weis go conservative?

• Listen Now

Acceptable win?

Yeah, it wasn't as pretty as we'd like, but at this point, you take any win you get. Jim comes to the rescue again.

• Listen Now

"Jim" Clausen comes of age.

Jim is the man. Clausen carries the load as the Irish survive MSU and keep Weis alive for now.

• Listen Now

Sports Psychology 101

No doubt, the biggest game of the year for the Irish. Can Weis rally the troops?

• Listen Now

ND-Michigan Preview

The edge is clearly in our favor. Do we have the poise and the leadership on this team to withstand an emotional avalanche from Michigan?

• Listen Now

Irish start off on right foot.

You could not have scripted a better performance than ND's handling of Nevada in the home opener. Smoke and mirrors, or is this a preview of the 2009 season?

• Listen Now

Enough with the Billboard! ND vs. Nevada

Forget the Billboard, the Fighting Irish open with a stiff test in Nevada. Will the program show improvement, or are we in for a long season once again?

• Listen Now

Depth visible with the Defense as well.

A few question marks on Defense, but for the most part, a very solid group. What can we expect for 2009?

• Listen Now

Depth no longer a sore spot for the Irish.

The offense is sporting something it hasn't in a long time, depth. Will this translate into success for 2009?

• Listen Now

Is there optimism in the air for the 2009 Irish?

Not much to get excited about as a result of the Blue-Gold game. But is there optimism for the 2009 season, and if so, why?

• Listen Now

Collapse at USC has Weis on the hot seat.

Should he stay or should he go? The Pro's and Con's of each.

• Listen Now

• Listen Now

Irish win ugly

The good, the bad, and the ugly of the Irish win over Navy. What's to come?

• Listen Now

Defense shows up against BC, but the offense sputters.

Irish go in reverse against BC. Something is drastically wrong but there doesn't seem to be any easy answers. What gives?

• Listen Now

Irish let another get away. Only this time it's painful.

Up 17-3 at halftime and we can't close the deal. Is this an indication of more to come from this team, or are we getting ahead of ourselves, yet again?

• Listen Now

Irish at the crossroads as 5-2 Pitt arrives?

Arguably a must win for ND as away games with Boston College and USC loom on the horizon. Pretty much have to take care of business at home.

So how do the Irish grade mid way through the season? Why the excitement?

• Listen Now

Irish let one slip away.

Plenty of blame to go around for this lost, including some bad calls. But is there a silver lining in all of this?

• Listen Now

Defining moment for the Irish.

This game should dictate how the rest of the season goes for the Irish. So why the optimism heading into North Carolina as a 7 pt. underdog?

• Listen Now

The good and bad of the '08 Irish.

At 4-1, we're obviously doing some things right. But is there concern heading into the meat of our schedule?

• Listen Now

Passing game rules the day as Irish roll.

So we didn't run all over Stanford, who cares? The object of the game is to win. Irish now 4-1.

• Listen Now

Can the Irish maintain the momentum against Stanford?

It'll be tough to top the second half performance against Purdue, but matching it would be nice. Irish look to continue to improve in the running game.

• Listen Now

How good are we at this point in the season?

We're not ranked, and justifiably so, but are we close? A lot of optimism is in the air.

• Listen Now

Balance is the key as offense finally clicks for Irish.

Irish answer the call and put Purdue away the old fashion way.

Way too early to call for heads.

We're 2-1 and people are calling for heads? C'mon, you can't be serious.

• Listen Now

Not all bad as Irish show some upside in loss to MSU.

Yeah, we definitely lost the game, but we also showed signs of life with our passing game. Defense held their own despite allowing Ringer to ramble for 200 yards.
