    Fat Charlie Has Honest Recruiting Pitch

    Charlie Weis is in his first year of coaching Kansas Jayhawk football, and might be the only person fatter than the previous Kansas coach. I am a ND fan, and was not a fan of Fat Charlie. I do like his honesty with his current recruiting pitch....

    “Everyone wants to play. There’s no one that wants to not play. I said, ‘Have you looked at that pile of crap out there? Have you taken a look at that?’ So if you don’t think you can play here, where do you think you can play? It’s a pretty simple approach. And that’s not a sales pitch. That’s practical. You’ve seen it, right? Unfortunately, so have I.”

    A friend spent time with the guy.

    Says he's a jerk.

    I don't understand the reference to the pile of crap.

    He's referring to the state of Kansas. Unfortunately, I've seen that pile of crap, too!

    Thank God he is no longer at Notre Dame. He was/is such an arrogant prick. Heck of a recruiter, but pretty useless at developing talent.

    The pile of crap is his existing set of players. If a recruit doesn't think they can get playing time over the current Jayhawks, who collectively are a pile of crap, then they likely won't play anywhere.

    Maybe that is why Kansas hired him. They were pretty good the last time they had a fat piece of crap coach.

    Kinda like an okay-looking girl standing next to a real ugly one...Kansas looks a lot better when Charlie Wiess is standing next to it.
