Marcus Freeman named Dick Corbett Head Football Coach

[Notre Dame Joe]

Tell that to my Dad’s basement

We had saved some of grandpa's empty beer bottle. Not sure why.

It's not MF's style but he should start calling IU "that school down south" 😂

I don't think we need to embellish the fake IU rivalry. We own them on the football field (24-5-1) when we've played them and unfortunately we didn't get a chance to last fall.

I think returning the coordinators + bringing back the same dudes on defense + bringing back the same QB does a lot to mitigate early season "wtf" potential.

I guess I had never thought of it. According to this, ND has not blown a 4Q 7+ pt lead under Freeman. They have also not come back from a 4Q 7 pt deficit under Freeman. It looks like we are overlapped with Wake in the 3rd graphic, winning about 55% of games entering the 4Q +/- 6 points.

Fascinating. We weren't down by a TD against PSU in the semis?

From the first graph, Lincoln Riley is one of the only coaches in that 87.5% range and below that hasn’t been recently fired effecting the sample size for the current HC. Believe he’s the longest tenured there…..

Think we were tied or even led at the end of the 3Q

It also had us at almost no occurrences on the -7+.

Essentially we are either winning by 7+ or the game is within 6 going into the 4th under freeman.

With the majority of the time being 7+ and not relinquishing.

ND wins Natty but Cristobal Coach of yr? No Leonard Moore winning the Thorpe (or whichever is best DB)? Color me skeptical.

I found myself pissed with these results despite us winning it all

Im willing to sacrifice COTY and the Thorpe for a natty.

Pretty insane level of recruiting right now. Truly the best of the best in the trenches. Never thought we’d see the day!

Notre Dame Line Recruiting Is Dominating College Football

By stacking five-star commitments and outperforming SEC powerhouses in the trenches, Marcus Freeman is transforming Notre Dame into a physically dominant force through unprecedented national recruiting success.

He is setting the bar high - if he doesn't win 2 titles in the next 5 years it will be viewed as a failure.

I'm pretty sure he could win one and no one will be calling it a failure

 

[Dale]

How many coaches in the modern history of college football have won two titles in 5 years? Three?

I’ll take one and like it

lol

 

[notredomer23]

ND can go 0-60 over the 5 years after winning a title for all I care at this point and I'd still call it a success.

Not me, we will be shopping down the dollar tree isles if that happens

The natty would be the best, but that would be brutal...

You're definitely on the right message board, then.

Case and point Michigan

The only thing I remember is them having a terrible cheating scandal and following that up with horrific scandals where they treated women like garbage

 

[jerseyborn1971]

When we the championship, watch public perception change. We love winners in this country. Suddenly, it will be about how they only hated them when they were not winning but treated like they were.

I think the opposite will happen. I think the hate will be stronger.

Yes, because I will be absolutely unbearable to my friends who have hated on our beloved Irish

With the talent acquisition from 2025-2027 we at worst should be a favorite to win a championship 2-3 times over the next 5 years. Whether or not we do it will come down to who replaces Carr.
