Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly counsels NBC on television no-huddle offense

"For Notre Dame, and NBC, a quick-strike offense this season means quick-strike breaks," Kelly Whiteside writes, adding, "When Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly ran his no-huddle spread offense at Cincinnati last year, the average scoring drive took 2:19. This season, Kelly would like the Irish to work just as fast. So what does this mean for NBC Sports which will televise Notre Dame's eight home games? 'We've talked to NBC about the way we like to play the game versus maybe how it was played in the past,' Kelly said Tuesday. 'There's certainly a need for us to address it and I think we're working with NBC to make certain that they get what they need from an advertising standpoint.'''
