SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly has been rewarded for getting the Fighting Irish to the national championship game in January with a new five-year deal. Kelly said the contract signifies to him that he and the university officials are "all in it together." "So when we come to an agreement, its not necessarily that within it that I get a lunch stipend on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Its about that were all together in this contract about moving the program forward. We decided by signing this contract, were all in this together. Thats what I was looking for," he said. The university has made a number of changes in the program since he became coach, including instituting a training table to make sure players are getting proper nutrition and changing some longstanding pregame routine, such as moving the pregame Mass from Saturday to Friday. He also talked Thursday about how he will be involved in the conversation when players are facing potential disciplinary action, something former past coaches have complained about. When asked Thursday about wanting a voice in such situations, Kelly answered: "I dont know that I want a voice. I just want to be part of the conversation. I think the communication is what Im interested in more than anything else," he said. Kelly said he was "100 per cent" behind the universitys student code policies, saying he knows hes not going to change those, but said he wants to be able to tell parents that he will be an advocate for their sons. "This about how you run a program year in and year out," he said. The contract announcement came on a day when Notre Dame beat Temple 28-6, giving Kelly 200 career wins. "It ensures that Brian will continue to provide leadership that has fundamentally changed this program, restored it, given it the foundation it needs for continue success in the future," athletic director Jack Swarbrick said. "We could not be more pleased." Kelly had said four weeks ago that a new deal was "imminent." Swarbrick had announced in January after Kelly led the Irish to a 12-0 record and the national championship game against Alabama that the school was working on a contract extension. Kelly interviewed for the Philadelphia Eagles job the day after the BCS game in January. Mark Andrews Ravens Jersey . "That was a great lift for the staff," Padres manager Bud Black said.

Mark Andrews Womens Jersey . -- Rory McIlroy birdied his last two holes Thursday for a 7-under 63 to take the lead after one round of the Honda Classic.Derrick Rose and four returnees from the 2012 Olympic mens basketball champions are among the 19 players selected for this summers U.S. national team roster. Kevin Durant, Kevin Love, James Harden and Anthony Davis were the four holdovers announced Monday, along with new additions DeMar DeRozan of Toronto and Chandler Parsons, who is leaving Houston for Dallas. Players will report to training camp in Las Vegas this month, with the roster cut to 12 before the World Cup of Basketball in Spain. Rose is trying to make the team after his NBA season was cut short by another knee operation. The rest of the roster: Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson (Golden State), Kyrie Irving (Cleveland), Blake Griffin (Clippers), Paul George (Indiana), Damian Lillard (Portland), Gordon Hayward (Utah), DeMarcus Cousins (Sacramento), Bradley Beal (Washington), Andre Drummond (Detroit), Kenneth Faried (Denver) and Kyle Korver (Atlanta). The Americans previously announced a 28-player roster pool inn January, though it was planned that players such as two-time Olympic champions LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul would sit out this summer and perhaps come back at the 2016 Summer Games.dddddddddddd Also missing from the original pool is NBA Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard of San Antonio and Portland All-Star forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was expected to play this summer. So the U.S. will be led by Durant, the NBA scoring champion from the Oklahoma City Thunder who was the MVP of the 2010 World Championship, which has since been renamed. Curry, Love and Rose also played on that team, the first from the U.S. to win the tournament since 1994. But Rose has had a tough time remaining healthy since, tearing a knee ligament in the 2012 playoffs, missing the entire next season and then getting knocked out by surgery shortly after returning last season. His chances of making the team were strengthened last week when Oklahoma City point guard Russell Westbrook withdrew from consideration to rest because of knee injuries. ' ' '
