Burneister and Harris on the radio play by play noted numerous times that Clark Lea told them he spent more time with BK on the plan for this week than for any other game.
This comes on the heels of BK stating last week that he wants his coordinators to be "more stubborn," which sounds to a lot of us like he wants them to learn his worst trait.
The hallmark io Lea"s tenure has been successful adjustments for the second half of a game. That is decidedly not what we saw yesterday -- in a game where BK's influence on the defense was reportedly increased.
Clark, you have been a terrific DC. Your career trajectory points toward a multi-million dollar future as a head coach. But don't let BK teach you his worst quality. Don't back away from what you have done so well. Otherwise, you might follow the path of Polulian, Quinn, Diaco....
And Coach Kelly, the most impressive thing you have done in your ND tenure has been to go outside your circle and bring in fresh talent as assistants to rebuild after your 4-8 debacle. Nervous fans are seeing signs that you are reverting to what dug that hole. Please cut it out.
