Marcus Freeman named Dick Corbett Head Football Coach

[ThePiombino]

I feel so bad for this him. The right guy at the wrong time.

Greatest representative of Notre Dame for $18 Billion Alex.

Who is Scott Malpass.

Well someone tell Scott we need a couple of stacks for some WR recruits.

 

[notredomer23]

Well, Hesburgh was more that 30 years ago, so...
1. Ara Parseghian
2. Lou Holtz
3. Some really really really old guy named Knute
Still names that people mention regarding Notre Dame (sports)
Freeman has a long way to go to get into that group. I mean, let´s see if he moves the University like those guys did.

Interesting, I was under the impression Father Ted died in 2015

 

[irishff1014]

At least he should have the interviews down by now.

 

[irishandy]

Has there ever been a better representative of the university than Freeman in the last 30 years? I’m not talking just sports. Tough to stack up against Father Ted but who else?

I think MF truly loves the University of Notre Dame. Nice to see him at the WBB in NC last night, he was present when Stiffler got hired as the baseball coach. I hope recruits notice his passion for the university.

He got called to the home office in Rome by the Il Capo. No longer the holder of the Golden Checkbook.

This. Seems to have been converted just like Elston was only in this case... he really converted.

The university is lucky to have someone like MF, he is unique in his own way. If the fanbase could be more patient.

Without a doubt. Sucks we got him after the NIL revolution. Woulda loved to have seen his recruiting victories had he been the coach from say 2019-2021.

Sorry.

Make that the NIL DEvolution.

Had BK not left for LSU, I wonder if another program would've come calling for Freeman. He definitely puts in the work for recruiting (NIL is not his fault) and he connects well with the recruits.

He's the head coach of Cincy now if Swarbrick (under orders of the Vatican) would've given Saban $25M per.

Absolutely. If not after the 2021 season (Duke maybe, or possibly Va. Tech) then certainly after '22 (Cincy, Purdue, Ga. Tech). That man has had head coach written all over him for some time.

I think I read somewhere that he would have likely been the Duke head coach. There was mutual interest

It appears that after all of the coaching turnover, the sun has continued to rise for Marcus Freeman. Unless there are some weird astrological and or environmental issues in NW Indiana.

They end up coming away more than solid for my money, at least on paper, with who they're bringing in to replace who left. Now we see what kind of results they turn in on the field in 2023.

 

[IrishLax]

I've been trying to move the OT posts since yesterday and don't know how to do it.

EDIT: turns out banner ad at the bottom was hiding the option but it's too late because I already deleted them.

While you might be right, the ND momentum and brand took a major hit in the process. That part of it is not good.

More boobs less politics is the remedy here.

Someone post some republican or democratic titties so the board melts down with their conflicted feelings

Careful, ND doesn't do well when you ask for "moore"

Freeman is always smiling. He has to be the most laid back coach ever.

Put some respect on acamp1900’s name…. All my bet againsts helped with keeping the lines sane,…

 

[irishff1014]

I sure hope Freeman can figure out coaching. He is interviewing for the AD job if he can. Dude is the greatest rep any school can have.

 

[NDFAN2008]

There ain’t another guy or coach in the country I’d rather have than Freeman leading this team he gets it. Now if the administration can get their heads out of their A** and get on an even playing field with NIL and give some leeway with admissions it will be a game changer

I agree 👍

👍👍👍

Great interview with Freeman on ESPNU during the Lacrosse game. His love for ND reminds of Holtz's love for ND.

Greathouse is not built like a freshman WR.
