The New York Times is reporting that Cincinnati coach Brian Kelly will be announced as the new coach of Notre Dame tomorrow, 12/11. It says Kelly is expected to inform his team at their football banquet tonight. I can envision the speech now: Well men, we accomplished a lot together. Be proud of yourselves. I'm out of here. Will be interesting to see if he has any more luck than his last several predecessors.

Looking around for football news during this fallow period of the year, it occurred to me to check in on how our former hero Paul Pozlusny faired playing his first full year for the Buffalo Bills following his rookie-year injury. Didn't get to see him much on TV. Looks like it was stellar; according to the Bills' Website, Poz was the team's leading tackler with 110 tackles, including 87 solo stops. The next closest player was Kawiki Mitchell with 82 tackles, 57 of which were solos. Way to go Poz.
