BUT (and its a huge BUT) to pull off that kind of behavior effectively you have to be the type of coach that players actually have a little fear of. Kelly has no credibility with this type of shit. He's like a harmless little kid that is throwing a tantrum because somebody stole his shovel in the sandbox. The clock re-started big time on his 3 yrs and out after last week's embarrasing loss. No. 2 coming most likely this weekend.

I'm not saying it was a bad thing, nor am I bashing him or ND for it..but it is pretty embarrassing how pissed off he got; hence, why he was joking about it..he knew he went a little over the top and decided to joke about it.

Still waiting for a few gif's or videos of other coaches reacting like that..we already acknowledged Pelini, and I guess Saban too. Got any more?

Its ONLY embarrasing because it was the Hamburgler doing it, other coaches are tough guys who have inherent respect from their players. Kelly just doesn't have the cajones to back that type of behavior up. Maybe if you knew how to coach a little better your players might play a little better Toughy McToughster.

Now that videos of the two that came to my mind immediately were posted....you need proof in gif form? You wanted proof, it was provided and then you changed or specified your criteria. GIF's are made because they're funny mostly. Anyways, proof is proof whether it's a gif, a video, a pic, etc.

Whether it was embarrassing or not is strictly opinion and you're trying to prove my opinion wrong. You're not changing how I view it and vice versa. Thing is, I'm not trying to force my opinion on you whereas you're attempting to prove mine wrong. You just like to argue for the sake of arguing as evidenced by the dozens of pissing matches that you've been in on here with several people. Your opinion isn't any better or more valid than mine.

Those videos weren't Kelly comparable btw. They weren't close, hence no gif made of those videos

Can I have some proof that players don't respect Coach Kelly? Those are bold, and erroneous, statements.

FatHobbit;887486 wrote:I'm late to the thread, but I think most fans would want their coach to get mad when they're losing. People got mad at Tress when he didn't show enough emotion. It's not unusual I think. (I didn't see the game, only the pic and I have no clue why it's even being discussed.)

karen lotz;887522 wrote:No, I was saying that BK was REALLY REALLY angry and said bad words!!!! As in I was being facetious and its a non issue to Golic as a parent. Another parent of a freshman, Phillip Daniels also said that Kelly was worked up as he should have been, but didn't think it was an issue either. Daniels is also the uncle of TJ Jones, who Kelly really laid into. Daniels said something along the lines of "I felt bad that TJ was getting yelled at because of how much he has been through." Jones' dad passed away suddenly earlier this year.

Bottom line, until parents of players or recruits say it negatively impacts their view of Notre Dame, it is a non issue, except for internet message boards and ESPN who is trying to boost ratings and up their website hits.

Especially not in the second half when his team is down by three scores.

Btw, since there are a couple Mike and Mike listeners on here, didn't they read a public letter from an individual with high regard in the Catholic community about Kelly's actions?

Pelini was putting his finger in Martinez's chest while screaming in his face. Now, I don't have a problem with that but it's just as fiery as Kelly's behavior if not moreso.
