Notre Dame is being called racist for how they treated Ty Willingham, and by letting Charlie Weiss stay, they’re reinforcing that image. What does Notre Dame need to do to rehibilitate their racist image?
For more on the history of racism at notre dame, go here:

They are already racist, which is why all the good ‘black’ recruits go to schools where they can contribute instead of going to ND and finding out the administration wear white cone hats.
if they do that, then ppl will just think there doing damage control. they need to actually apologize and hire a coach based on credentials, not race.

They blundered big time. They need to say sorry Charlie and move on.
This is also an organization that forced out Lou Holtz, so….They need to buy a clue.
Who they should hire depends on merit.

It would be racist to hire a black man to coach just because
he black. they should hire the best man for the job.

They never would have hired willingham if they werent trying to make some kind of statement in the first place.
I think Weiss is in a different world……You see him at a news conference bragging about his recruits……
References :
If they hire someone strictly because of his race, that, by definition, would be racist. Use that brain god gave you. (By the way they should have never fired Ty, and I don’t know if it was racism or not.)

fire weiss…notre dame is terrible this year….what they need to do is let rudy play

Black or white, they should have stuck with Willingham.
Just like at Ole Piss, they had a good thing going with Cutcliff and fired him after one bad year for that POS Oregeron.
Both Ole Piss and Notre Dame are getting the crappy football they deserve.

fire weiss and get a coach everyone loves with his staff being mostly minority but with winning expertise

a purple coach still wouldnt fix that program

It’s Weis, not Weiss, and I think ND should fire him and hire whoever the hell they think can help their team. Just like with black quarterbacks, eventually we’re gonna get past the idea that top-level black coaches need "help" to accomplish things. If ND wants to repair its racist image, maybe it should fast-track qualified lower-level "other than white male" applicants, and let them prove or disprove their worth in the marketplace.
Organizations that promote based on preference rather than ability will fail in today’s world.
Disclaimer: I’m a white guy, and I am not opposed to affirmative action programs, though they don’t benefit me personally. It is to all of our benefit, as a society, if kids of whatever color see role models and success stories in their everyday world.
Nice to think about, but in reality probably still a long way off.

now that is a knee jerk reaction from some one foolish. lets say they fired willingham but yet keep fat-ass because he’s white….well bringing in a black coach doesnt fix that! what you are saying is just nutts. imagine that. a college in the u.s. of a. is perceived as racist by some. jeeeez our whole f’n country is perceived as racist by others!
say, if the glove don’t fit, you must acquit! where is rodney king when i need him? "kaint we all get along?"
maybe all the good catholics just prey for guidence and stay away from inquisitins and such. and no more crusades either!

Who gives a sh!t what others think? They should do what’s best and right for the team and not worry what morons think. If someone actually thinks they are racist, they are too stupid to even consider their opinion.
References :
Notre Dame would hire a lesbian, muslim, arabic, midget coach if they thought it would help them win. They dont care what color their coach is its all about winning which they suck at.
And before all the negative comments start coming in I dont have anything against any of those groups, they are just all minority so I said to prove a point.

they cant that would just be stupid, plus they would still have to pay him, he signed for 10 years, he still has 8 to go.
References :
They should just fire Weis for the heck of it.

Nah, let ‘Patriot Gate’ continue. Charlie Weiss is just another assistant coach from the Patriots organization whom while successful has been participating in some good ole fashioned cheating. This is the same offensive coordinator who was calling the plays while at least having files with knowledge of opponents defenses and staff updating him to changes. Let him roll in his stew until Notre Dame is a Div II school or even better, is so poor they have to join a conference. Black coaches shouldn’t have anything to do with Weiss’ hire on the real, that was ancient history by the time he came.
References :
Notre Dame should hire/fire coaches without regard to race. Even if they hire a black coach, comments like above will make it seem as if they hired him only because he was black.
Race has nothing to do with coaching ability and it is racist wether you hire or fire just because one is white, black, yellow or purple
References :
Race has nothing to do with it. Willingham couldn’t recruit anyone; look at the team now. It’s not Weiss’s fault he doesn’t have any true athletes to work with. For his last two years Willingham recruited 2 four star and five star players each year. Weiss already has 15 signed for next year.
Give Weiss time to get his recruits into place, and they will be back. Change coaches now and Notre Dame will be hurt for a long time.
Personally, I am not a Notre Dame fan. I like Charlie Weiss.

No. It’s not about who’s next, it’s about holding Charlie to the same standards they held Ty to. Obviously, since Charlie is going to get more time than Ty, even though Ty never had a year such as 2007, the racism question is valid. To fix it, they need to fire Chuckles. If Ty’s time there was a disappointment, then Weiss’ time there has been a farce. A fiasco. A travesty. Not that I mind, I find it funny and it gives me great enjoyment to see them lose to powder puffs.

Why not just have all white players while they’re at it? How many games would they win then?
