Brian "Body Kount" Kelly (HC Louisiana State)

I suppose it would be too much to ask for Army to beat ND in San Antonio, the second league of their recruitment tour against service academies. The first one against Navy in Jacksonville went well. :slappy:

Army should shit all over them for being asked to play in an Air Force town :)

Mostly, but the Army's medical training center and hospital are also there. Ft. Bliss ( a misnomer if ever there was one) is in El Paso (cue the Marty Robbin's song) which is reasonably close to San Antonio (by Texas standards). And don't forget that the Air Force is the bastard son of the Army Air Corps.

True forgot about Brooks & Fort Sam.. but ... Ft Hood is way closer.. about 2 hours compared to 8 for Ft Bliss - FYI El Paso isn't close to anything even by Tejas's standards

Yeah, my Dad (oral surgeon) did his Army medical training there before shipping off to Vietnam. He grew up in Brooklyn and told me that 60s San Antonio was about as foreign to him as Vietnam.

The best metaphor for his career at this point...

The important to remember that Brian Kelly didn't arrive at Norte Dame and become an insufferable asshole. He was already a notoriously insufferable asshole before ND, and they still said "what could go wrong?" even after the Charlie Weis debacle, he himself a large, literally and figuratively, asshole.

Body Kount's character was an open book all the way back to CMU where he counseled one of his players not to cooperate with police in a murder investigation and then attempted to justify his actions with some ridiculously racist comments. The priests knew every bit of this but chose to ignore it because Body Kount was the hottest coach on the market and they are a bunch of immoral, self-righteous hypocrites desperate to breathe life back into their precious football program without which they're pretty much Fordham.

Really happy to see the title change happen BEFORE Kelly inevitably gets fired.

I give you the renowned sociologist, Body Kount Kelly.

For example, a number of them were African-Americans that had been in that culture of violence, and they're taught to look away," Kelly said in the Sept. 22, 2005, edition of the Detroit Free Press. "You don't want anything to do with it. Get out of there. You don't say anything to anybody.

"That is a culture that they are immersed in. When they come here, their first reaction is to react the way they've been taught to react in their culture and in their environment. That's difficult."
