The Brazos Valley Bombers announced today that their “Ambassador of Fun,” KaBoom, has applied for the head football coaching vacancy at Notre Dame. The explosive personality believes that his rare combination of charisma and sports knowledge will translate into success for the famous Notre Dame Football program.
After serving as head coach for the past five seasons, Charlie Weis was relieved of his duties earlier this week by Notre Dame Director of Athletics Jack Swarbrick after going 6-6 during the 2009 campaign. Upon hearing of the termination of Weis, KaBoom decided this would be an opportune time to demonstrate his coaching abilities. Earlier today, KaBoom contacted Notre Dame Coordinator of Office Services Mary Jane Elias and submitted his application to become the 16th head coach of the famed program.
Although KaBoom has no experience coaching football, he believes that he will be the perfect match for the Fighting Irish. He feels that he can bring an exciting brand of football back to South Bend, Indiana. “I’ve always felt I could coach major college football, but I have just never gotten around to applying for a position. When I heard Bob Stoops and Will Muschamp say they were going to stay at Oklahoma and Texas, I decided I needed to jump at this opportunity,” KaBoom told a Brazos Valley Bombshell yesterday.
KaBoom provided Notre Dame with a resume that he believes is “flawless,” with references to Notre Dame coaching legends Knute Rockne and Lou Holtz, as well as Rudy. He claims to have received a Bachelor’s Degree in Sport Entertainment from the School of Hard Knocks and believes the training he received there be invaluable in turning around Notre Dame’s fortunes.
Bombers fans who are worried about the departure of KaBoom need not worry, as he will make the necessary arrangements to ensure that he will be in attendance at all the Bombers’ game next summer. He plans on using his time in Texas to do some extra recruiting during the day, while still making it out to Brazos Valley Bank Ballpark at night to root on his favorite team of all- the Brazos Valley Bombers.
The Bombers are members of the Texas Collegiate League, one of the nation’s premier summer collegiate circuits. Teams like the Bombers bring minor league baseball-style entertainment to communities throughout the country, giving some of the best college players a chance to further their careers in wood bat leagues in front of Major League scouts. The Bombers 56-game season begins in June and runs through the middle of August, followed by the TCL playoffs and a championship series. Season tickets for the 2010 season are now on sale.
