Unofficial reports have reported that Brian Kelly will be coaching the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame next year.

The South Bend Tribune reported today that they have an insider that knows that Brian Kelly will announce to his team tonight that he will be heading to Notre Dame after the seasons end. The Cincinnati Bearcats have a team banquet this evening and that will be a topic discussed by coach Brian Kelly.

It will be interesting to see how this affects his team. They will be playing in the Sugar Bowl against the Florida Gators on New Years day. Cincinnati players apparently don’t care what Brian Kelly does, they just want him to make up his mind and let it be made known publicly.

“Just make the decision fast, bro, so we can get it out of the way,” Cincinnati receiver Mardy Gilyard said. “You know what you’re going to do. Just do it. We’re tired of worrying about it.”

This rumor has been in circulation for a few weeks now, but has finally been printed in the newspaper and now has a little bit of validity.
