WDFN says Kelly to ND
December 3rd, 2009 at 10:32 AM ^
this trick of "actual" media outlets reporting things by saying "KELLY IN AT ND (according to internet)" so they get all the splash but don't have to take any blame is getting irritating.
December 3rd, 2009 at 10:35 AM ^
This is now being reported by NDExpertzBlog.biz. It has to be true.
December 3rd, 2009 at 10:56 AM ^
well, they are "expertz"
December 3rd, 2009 at 10:36 AM ^
My guess is this is just another one of the outlets piling on that IrishCentral report from yesterday. A few newspapers report this website is saying this, whether it's true or not, and then it snowballs.

Kelly has come to terms with a Cincy for a contract extension. Not signed but it "appears" Kelly is going to stay with Cincy.

More interesting is that the site mentions that Skip Holtz has been contacted and might interview. I hope Skip doesn't spit like his dad. Could hurt his chances during the interview.

Skip should be fine until his teeth fall out

I had forgotten about fooballscoop.com, good times.
2 hours before the Miami HC was announced they said he had been eliminated as a candidate, good times
December 3rd, 2009 at 11:21 AM ^
He WAS removed as a candidate by being hired! See, it's all in the interpretation.

I wonder how credible that site is. They seems to say they have insider info into almost every coaching search. For ND they say:
Sources tell us that the center of the search for Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick is with Skip Holtz (East Carolina Head Coach), Randy Edsall (UConn Head Coach) and Jim Harbaugh (Stanford Head Coach).
My guess is not very credible.

The sad thing is, even the website doesn't claim that it's a done deal. The headline is practically a lie. The body of the article says "according to an insider, Kelly is the leading candidate" and it doesn't even claim inside info of an actual deal being done. It's a blatant ploy to get page hits and it has worked beautifully.

...a lot of chatter today for Kelly. True or not something is going on. I wouldn't be surprised at anything right now
December 3rd, 2009 at 11:16 AM ^
According to this blog, I think it's true...maybe.

Found this link to another link saying he is staying per the Cincinnati Enquirer. The problem is when you follow the link to the Cincy Enquirer website, it says page not found. Who F***ing knows.

I'm a proud Irish-American, do I qualify? I don't have front butt, so that is a strike against me.

Sits out there as a coaching salary negotiator's dream.
