Notre Dame: Charlie Weis
built 626 days ago
Notre Dame's home jersey is dark blue with white numerals, gold outlining, and a small interlocking "ND" logo at the base of the collar. The away jersey is white with blue numerals, gold outlining, and the interlocking "ND" at the collar. Neither jersey includes the player's name on the back at the present time, but names were included during the Dan Devine and Gerry Faust eras. Gold pants, with a small ND logo just below the left waist, are worn with both home and away jerseys.
In December, Notre Dame participated in a program called "Envelopes for Ethiopia" where students collected learning materials for a Catholic school in Ethiopia. The envelopes arrived in January, and were very well received by the children of St. Mary's Catholic School in Goregore Bora, Ethiopia.

Notre Dame showed itself to be too ambitious, attempting complex offensive strategies with little chance of success. Yet Charlie Weis would not be deterred, calling these intricate plays over and over, with the expectation that Notre Dame should be able to execute these incredibly difficult plays where other professional teams could not. However, ND still had problems executing difficult plays like shotgun snaps. It was obviously a problem with Ty Willingham's recruits.
At the conclusion of games against the Military Academy teams (Army, Navy, and Air Force), the Notre Dame team will stand with their opponents during the playing of their academy's Alma Mater. This tradition was started by Charlie Weis as a sign of respect towards the military forces who are defending the country. Following home games, the academy teams will return the favor by standing with the Notre Dame team during the playing of "Notre Dame, Our Mother".
Nighttime view of Notre-Dame Notre-Dame has had an eventful history over the centuries. Crusaders prayed here before leaving on their holy wars, and polyphonic music developed in the cathedral. Notre-Dame was pillaged during the French revolution, as were a number of other cathedrals throughout France (witness the beheaded saints at the Cathédrale St-Etienne in Bourges, for example): Citizens mistook statues of saints above the portals on the west front for representations of their kings, and, in the midst of their revolutionary fervor, took them down. (Some of these statues were found in the 1970s, almost two hundred years later, in the Latin Quarter.) Many of the cathedral's other treasures were either destroyed or plundered — only the great bells avoided being melted down. Revolutionaries dedicated the cathedral first to the cult of Reason, and then to the cult of the Supreme being. The church interior was used as a warehouse for the storage of food.
Since discovering that Weis had nothing to do with Notre Dame since August, the responsibility with Notre Dame football obviously results with the true coach before Weis, Ty Willingham. Did Willingham sign the papers releasing Jones from Notre Dame? No.
