- Churney first to criticize coaching, last to understand how it works Letter to the editor

As a proud alumni and die-hard supporter of Notre Dame and her proud football tradition, I must admit that I am repulsed by Mr. Churney's statements. While it is true enough that Davie has made mistakes in the area of time management — most notably the LSU safety — footage shown on ESPN tonight indicates that Big Ten officiating, not Davie, was the primary cause of the Purdue loss.
- Churney ridiculous, victim of numerology Letter to the editor
Brian Churney's scathing indictment of Bob Davie in yesterday's Observer is ridiculous and deserves a reply. Logic was never a required course at a university, but perhaps the deans should again encourage its study — judging by Mr. Churney's lack of it.
