Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly had some strong thoughts about Alabama using former players on its scout teams to help with preparation.

According to The Indianapolis Star’s Laken Litman, Kelly was asked about teams like Alabama, which brought on former quarterback Blake Sims to help the Tide prepare for Texas A&M quarterback Trevor Knight, bringing on former players for the scout team. Kelly said, “I think it’s absolutely ludicrous. Doesn’t sound like college football to me.”




Brian Kelly on teams bringing former players for scout team: "I think it's absolutely ludicrous..doesn’t sound like college football football to me."

Granted, Kelly is frustrated about a lot more than Alabama’s use of former players on its practice squad, as his Irish are currently 3-6 and will need to win out in order to become bowl eligible.

But the Notre Dame coach isn’t the first to weigh in on the issue. Former Alabama quarterback John Parker Wilson was asked the same thing earlier on Thursday.

Is it against the rules? NO, so STFU you loser. He's just trying to deflect attention away from his pathetic golden domers. Nada mas.

 

[EasyTider]

Former Irish players would either embarrass Kelly's current pile of steaming shite, or they can't stand the SOB and wouldn't come back if asked.

The real issue isn't that Saban does it, the real issue now is, why don't we? If Kelly believes this an unfair advantage, he's saying, it works and is effective. So imitation being the highest form of flattery, go for it. Got to believe good coaches aren't worried about who started it, good coaches are trying to upgrade their scout team as we speak.

And this IS ludicrous. Sadly enough, it sounds just like Notre Dame football over the last quarter of a century.

I've always hated this smug bastard. recruits have said a lot of negative things about him. He will be gone after next year because he sucks ass.

 

[Bamabww]

I've always hated this smug bastard.

Yeah, ever since our NCG with notre dame it's been the same with me. I remember he said after the game something to the effect of "we're not that far from being a team like Alabama".

LMAO! I'll see if I can find that story. Brian Kelly on Alabama Game 71 Days Later – Notre Dame “A Lot Closer Than I Thought” (AUDIO)

Good thing Notre Dumb didn't sign him for a long extension, that would be ludicrous...

His winning percentage at Notre Dame is .666.

Thinking back to that video that leaked at their pre national championship game pep rally down in Miami and all the shit they talked. Good times!

 

[XXL TideFan]

He was processed. pffffft!

 

[It Takes Eleven]

I wonder which scout team QB is hurt? JPW mentioned that in the interview.

 

[bamascw]

It was difficult to read his comments because all I saw was "Waa..Waa.Waaaaaaaa"

 

[#80]

Haters go'n hate. Still got major butt hurt after that ass whipp'n we gave him. He should worry about finding another job.

 

[T&B]

Brian Kelly ?

Never heard of her.

 

[ColAngus]

Maybe we'll hire Kelly for some low-level athletic dept job after he finally gets his ass fired in S Bend.

 

[TUSKtimes]

Kelly needs to be concerned that Les Miles doesn't come and get what he has. Yes, that Les Miles.

 

['65 Cobra]

:violin:Waah, Waah. He's just jealous 'cuz who's he gonna get to come back and play QB? Brady Quinn? LOL!

 

[sean]

here are 3 simple words he needs to take to heart:

"adapt or die"

he may not like the way Coach Saban does things, but thems the rules. and if the rules allow it, then nobody can really do anything about it.

except whine like a little bitch, because what they're doing isn't working.

again....adapt or die.

 

[doemasters]

Maybe they could bring in Manti Te'o and his girlfriend

 

[We All Bleed Crimson]

I think Mr Kelly has enough to worry about right now, he doesn't need to lash out at other teams for doing something that isn't breaking any rules. 3-6 is a tough place to be.....
