If you are interested in hearing what head coach Charlie Weis has to say about the latest loss to USC or the upcoming game against the Navy Midshipmen, then you can check out the press conference transcript at UND.com. If you’ve been keeping up on the press conferences like this blogger, then you won’t notice anything too different in the way that Weis is looking at things about the game in retrospect. He starts off by focusing on the special teams that the Irish played in the USC game, which, in his estimation, did pretty well. Clearly it is hard to come up with positive things to say about a 0-38 loss at home, but that is the tough job that Weis has had to deal with all season long.
Weis’ practice strategy this week stands out as something a little out of the ordinary. Apparently he is going to try to focus on the seniors and the players who will not be back next year, at least for most of the practices. As the season winds down, you have to be looking forward to next year and allowing younger players to get valuable experience in the games. Of course, you probably feel obligated to give seniors a chance to play as well. We’ve all seen Rudy, so we know how important getting seniors involved can be.
