  1. 24 years ago today. This was a fun story. "On December 9, 2001 the Notre Dame Fighting Irish replaced former coach Bob Davie with Georgia Tech coach George O'Leary. O'Leary, who had signed a six-year extension with the Yellow Jackets just a year earlier, expressed his desire to improve on the team's lackluster 5-6 record. "Notre Dame is the only job I would ever leave Georgia Tech for," O'Leary said in his introductory press conference. "It's the pinnacle of all coaching jobs. In fact, I believe there are two great coaching jobs in all of sports, one being the manager of the New York Yankees and the other being the head football coach at Notre Dame." It wasn't to be. Union Leader columnist Jim Fennell was writing a feel-good story about O'Leary when he discovered discrepancies in his resume. Among the lies was that O'Leary earned a master's degree at New York University-Stony Brook, when not only hadn't he, there was no such thing as an NYU campus at Stony Brook. Nor did he earn three letters as a football player at New Hampshire, when in fact he had never even played in a game. His faulty biography was in use even as far back as 1980, when he took on the job at Syracuse. O'Leary, who had been hired as the guy who would turn Notre Dame around, suddenly had the reputation of a pathological liar. "Many years ago, as a young married father, I sought to pursue my dream as a football coach," O'Leary said in a statement. "In seeking employment, I prepared a resume that contained inaccuracies regarding my completion of course work for a master's degree and also my level of participation in football at my alma mater. These misstatements were never stricken from my resume or bio sketch in later years." He resigned just five days after getting hired. That opened the door for Tyrone Willingham, who became the school’s first black coach a few weeks later. O’Leary would go onto coach the UCF Knights from 2004 to 2015. During his twelve-year tenure with the Knights, O'Leary guided the team to the fourth-best turnaround in NCAA history (2005), and led UCF to one of the biggest upsets of the BCS era in the 2014 Fiesta Bowl. He was a 3-time C-USA Coach of the Year (2005, 2007, 2010) and AAC Coach of the Year (2013) while at Central Florida.🏈"
  2. 2005 UT and USC would smoke any of these teams honestly.
  3. This reminds me of their season a few years ago. Started off like 9 or 10-1. Almost lost out completely and Dallas won the division at the very end to get the 2 seed. And of course, we get run off the field at home against GB and have never been the same since.
  4. This is much better
  5. Hahahahahaha. Great game Hurts
  6. Makes zero sense. All CCG losers dropped this weekend except Bama.
  7. I think they were at that age when the show started. This picture looks like it was taken towards the end of the show almost a decade later.
  8. Same and this isn't really giving props to aggy. It's more of how bad Miami is. Especially Beck. I also don't think Miami can cover Aggy's receivers all game. While it's funny ND being left out and Miami did beat them head to head, ND had a much better shot at beating aggy.
