Was Brian Kelly the Right Choice for Notre Dame?

Notre Dame is 4-5, another disappointing season. Brian Kelly was supposed to come in and give the Irish a boost of fresh energy and get them headed in the right direction.

He's currently in his second losing streak. The first one was three losses to the Michigan Wolverines, the Stanford Cardinals, and the Spartans from Michigan State.

The current losing streak is against what used to be inferior opponents for Notre Dame. However, Tulsa and the Navy were both able to defeat the Irish.

The Tulsa loss was not without controversy for Brian Kelly. In one of the most questionable calls I've personally ever seen, Kelly decided to go for a TD instead of a FG to win at the end of the game. It was as if he was going for style points on Tulsa instead of the win. The decision involved putting the hands in an 18 year old QB's hands because the starter had been injured. It really was the oddest decision. One top recruit has already de-committed from Notre Dame. A decision like this could really hurt the morale of the team.

I think ND made the wrong decision by hiring Brian Kelly, what do you think?
