Fightin' Words: 3 Days


Irish Creed proudly presents:
"Fightin' Words"
a series of quotes to get the Fightin' Irish Faithful in the proper fightin' mood 
as we count down the final days until the 2012 season of Notre Dame Football

"The Original Fighting Irish" - La Noue

Upon taking the reins of Notre Dame Football, head coach Brian Kelly displayed a painting by former ND lacrosse player Revere La Noue called "The Original Fighting Irish" in his office. Kelly's description of the painting serves as our latest set of "Fightin' Words" as just 3 days separate us from the 2012 campaign:

“You don't see faces… You see blue-collar. You see a bit of a swagger. You see toughness. Growing up as an Irish Catholic in Boston, that's what I remember Notre Dame being. That's been one of our goals every day -- to get that fight back in the Fighting Irish. It's good because that's who I am anyway.”

-Brian Kelly
