Hope you’re right man.

Feels like a lot more smoke this year then the Bears rumors last year, but that also comes with the territory of our season being over a month early then last season.

I’m personally not going to feel safe until every single realistic NFL vacancy is filled this offseason.

All I know is that if coach does leave for the NFL, I’m probably need to just leave twitter for good, because of the amount of shit talking I’ve done to Miami insiders that seem to think he is NFL bound.

Just stay away from the "For you" tab

Because Elon turned Twitter verification on its head. Went from verifying actual journalists and subject matter experts to verifying whoever would pay for the privilege and signal boost. Which means now if you are verified, like Wes there, I am more likely to believe you are a bullshit scam artist.

Because EVille needs to constantly doom post and if it takes tweets from fake accounts to do it, then that's what he'll do.

O'Malley thinks the NFL is preferable for a guy like MF because he would have to negotiate with Deon McIntosh if he stayed in college. The doomerism these guys project is divorced from reality at times.

Isn't the NFL moreso preferable for autist savants than high level motivators/recruiters? Freeman seems custom built to succeed at a place like Notre Dame. Young (good for kids) handsome guy (good for moms), former blue chip himself (good for dads) at a great school (good for moms) who is very personable (good for everyone). None of that probably moves the needle much in the NFL.

Yeah, again, Pete Carroll seems to be the only success story and he left CFB under a cloud of shame.

A guy like MF works in the NFL when tied together with one of those guys you mention, specifically on the offensive side of the ball. That said, it's extremely tough for a guy like MF to succeed in the NFL given the fact you are coming into a bad franchise, and somehow delusional owners and fans expect a team that went 3-14 to go 9-8 or better right away.

If Marcus Freeman can continue to bring in good coaches to ND, I fully expect he'll be able to assemble a good NFL staff when the time comes. How successful he will be in the NFL is TBD, but let's not act like MFMF doesn't have a good eye for coaching talent.

There are far more than just Carroll or even the ones I mentioned.

And truthfully even this list of coaches (Pete included) are in the .500 win %, not including Dallas who with those teams could have been coached by Ty Willingham to a SB.

And I know that the all time greats are only in the .600 win %, but my point is....That list has nobody even semi current except for JH and that list alone isn't all that impressive.

I mean, 7 Super Bowl appearances, with 5 wins is pretty impressive there. I get what you’re saying, but yeah.
