WEIS last 3 years 16-21 could not recruit or HEAD COACH a team!!! SAME thing at KANSAS fat blow-hard just an average offensive coordinator with an EGO the size of his waistline!! OVERATED , OVERWIEGHT AND OVER-PAID !! And deceived ND with talk of leaving for the NFL, which we found out was a big FAT lie to get more $$ !! THERES the worst person you can have, SCREWED his own ALMA MATER!! And they built a special home for his daughter, what a piece of sh.t he was and is!!!!!
