Would Fickell leave Cincinnati before the playoff *IF* they get a CFP bid?
Man tough call I'd go for the NC no guarantee you get back with ND - that prolly why kelly left .

Well it wasn't the BCSCG. 

BTW if you're trying to make a moral, ethical, or just plain common decency argument and your excuse is "well Brian Kelly did it first", I do believe you've already lost. :57:

Sounds like ND is all in for Fickell. Btw ND plays at OSU next year.
was hearing it was Matt Campbell. Fickell would be a great hire. Campbell would wind up being a disaster imo.

I'm betting it was because of the "chili."

Not a feather in the G5 cap, I'm afraid.

Dantonio left Cincinnati before an International Bowl, and Kelly came in and coached it.  So in the end it evened out for Kelly

Getting your boss fired makes future bosses want you less, especially when you're even more powerful on this level. (Also unclear about the quality of the job he's done or affinity for recruiting)

I watched that game. They had some weird plastic ramp at the end of the end zone, and one of the players tried to run up it after a TD and it was an instant cartoon banana peel slip.

Heh, didn't realize that.  Maybe that's the real reason he's leaving ND now, too. :)
