Virginia Week: Coach Kelly's Last Media Chat
Now, please note the color green Coach Kelly is wearing in his press conference. This is color green I'm hoping Under Armour will call FIGHTING IRISH GREEN. And, it would be a color they and Notre Dame would commit to FOREVER.
And, we as a fan base would begin committing to wearing something in Fighting Irish Green at every athletic event we attend for Notre Dame. Could be a hat, scarf, gloves, shirt, pants, etc. -- every ND fan is seen at our team's sporting events with this color somewhere on their person.

A Texas Football Fan Thanks Notre Dame...
Terry Bader, a fan of the Texas Longhorns, wrote a thank you letter to the Notre Dame family that was published in the Observer -- Notre Dame's student run newspaper. Thought you'd enjoy reading it. (That is not Terry in the photo above)
As one of the thousands of Texas Longhorn fans who attended the Notre Dame-UT game on Saturday, I’d like to thank the University, their employees and the Notre Dame fans for the remarkable hospitality and generosity my family and I received during our time on campus and at the game. From the moment we arrived on campus through our walk of shame back to the car, we were treated with nothing but kindness, great cheer and good-natured kidding. I’ve ventured into “enemy territory” many times over the years attending Texas road games and I can promise you that Notre Dame towers above them all in terms of sportsmanship and cordiality and that watching a game at Notre Dame Stadium is the most extraordinary, tradition-laden, emotional college football experience I’ve had. I hope many of you can venture down to Austin next year and that you receive the same great welcome I experienced (and, of course, the same walk of shame afterwards). Hook ’em Horns!
