Former Notre Dame QB Brady Quinn rips 'classless' Brian Kelly for move to LSU

When Brady Quinn was the quarterback of Notre Dame, he experienced a head coaching change.

Although Tyrone Willingham being fired and replaced by Charlie Weis before the 2005 season doesn't compare exactly, Quinn sounded off after Brian Kelly left the program late Monday night to take the LSU head coaching job.

"This was about money," Quinn, currently an analyst for FOX Sports, said on 2 Pros and Cup of Joe. "This was about ego, him looking at LSU and saying: 'I've played against them. I know what they can recruit. I know the difference in restrictions that you have, the hurdles you have to jump over at Notre Dame versus LSU to recruit and I want to try and go win a National Championship.
