SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) -New Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly told Fighting Irish fans attending the basketball game against UCLA that he arrives on campus with the goals of developing players and winning championships.
Kelly drew big applause during the three-minute speech on Saturday, telling the fans he was counting on their support next season.
He asked Notre Dame students if it’s true they do push-ups after every touchdown. After the student section let out a big cheer, Kelly told them they had better use the Christmas break to get in shape because they are going to be doing a lot of push-ups next fall.
He also told the fans they will love the effort the Irish will play with.
Kelly was hired on Dec. 11 to replace fired coach Charlie Weis.
