Rakes Report #140: Thou shalt find the winter's rage freeze thy blood less coldly (Christmas Giving Bonus Edition)

I’ll do a full Christmas Giving update below but thanks to everyone who has given so far and please consider this a friendly reminder to those who have meant to contribute to the Center for the Homeless but haven’t yet. Now, a bunch of stuff. There had been rumblings over the latter half of the season that Chip Long’s three-year tenure as Notre Dame offensive coordinator might be coming to an end. On Wednesday, in a series of escalating reports, it was announced that Long and the Irish were parting ways. Over the last week there was some thinking that Long would find a soft landing at one of the various jobs he had ties to (Florida State offensive coordinator, Auburn offensive coordinator, Memphis head coach) but when nothing materialized it seems like the situation became untenable. This is not ideal just before early signing day, but from all reports it wasn’t a decision Brian Kelly could put off much longer for the sake of the locker room.
