To put a cap on Countdown to College Football Kickoff Week it is only fitting that we elect to sock in the jaw the guy who tops our list of unlikable coaches in college football.

Sure, we could have chosen Nick Saban or Jim Tressel or Phil Fulmer or Steve Spurrier or Les Miles, but none of them bring to the table the unique blend of A) coaching at a universally hated school, B) managing himself with unequivocal smugness, and C) the ability to carry out the threat of eating their own players quite like Charlie Weis does.

There are so many reasons Weis should garner a left hook to the jowls, but the tipping point for us is this whole thing of not revealing who Notre Dame’s starting QB is going to be for the opener against Georgia Tech. The way Weis goes about it you’d think he had outsmarted the world and somehow gotten Joe Montana another year of eligibility without anyone being the wiser. 

The arrogance with which the guy brushes off the media’s QB questions is ridiculously self-important and irritating. We despise Notre Dame fans even more for supporting his god complex.

Some ND student actually posted insider information this week on his Facebook page that Demetrius Jones would be the starter, and hordes of loser Notre Dame fans attacked him for divulging any part of Weis’s master plan.

Now, we can’t condone the kid speculating about football rumors he heard around campus on his Facebook page when he should have been chasing hot mediocre Indiana tail all across campus, but give us a break.

Georgia Tech is ridiculously overrated, but we’re praying they lay an unrelenting smack down to Weis and the Irish this weekend.

Additional Reasons to Upper Cut Charlies Weis:

1) The way he brushed off Luke Skywalker’s Jedi mind trick attempts. So pompous, yet so Charlie. (Leia in the bikini was kind of money though.)

2) Couldn’t win his own lawsuit.

3) Always complimented Brady Quinn’s hair.

4) Affinity for full gray sweatsuit that makes him look like he belongs in an institution.

5) Recruited Jimmy Clausen.
