BTW, we had a discussion last night about Billick's college experience, if he even had any. According to the link I posted above, he does have some college experience but it's been 17 years since he's coached in the college game.............repeat, 17 YEARS ! If ND some how hires this guy (which I highly doubt), then the problems run alot deeper than just the HC.

I think people have known the problems run a lot deeper than that for a while.....

killer, Spencer Tillman made that claim on CBS yesterday and that's where the rumor began:

I saw this yesterday as well. Basically said he talked to someone very close to the ND situation. Sources I assume. Who knows.
Again, I think ND would be crazy to go the NFL way again. I truly believe there is just too much of a learning curve for someone who hasn't been in the college game for a long while.

Rock-As I said earlier.....I believe that it was said but I'm not buying this rumor. Brian Billick??? That came out of left field. I can't stand the guy either.

As for why Stoops would leave Oklahoma for ND.....he'll be asked that if he's the next head coach for the Irish so you'll get an answer.

^^^^Go back and read this thread, I'm not buying it either. I think Tillman is making this up because he doesn't want Stoops to leave his alma mater (Tillman's) and probably head to ND, atleast that's how I'm reading it.

Why do I need to go back and read the thread (again)? I never said that you were buying it.
