The poster at II that has claimed to have a source close to Swarbrick is saying the news is going to leak soon.

I couldn't name a single QB he had while he was at Duke. I have always liked Cutcliffe, but not for where this program is and needs to go at the present time.

Jerrod Johnson, GJ Kinne, Keenan Bailey are all guys who never coached a Manning that could drop in and do as good or better at coaching up QBs. Or Rees gets to do it without Kelly lingering around.

Daniel Jones was kinda famous

Put JOK in Swarbrick's office to make sure he doesn't call Campbell or Fickle.

He needs to go full Paschal on anyone attempting to call anyone but MFMF.

1) I'm not connected to ND like other are on this board
2) I've never been one to enjoy the rumor mill
3) But I gotta take my chance as it's presented to add to the rumors - my source knows Pete Sampson's source and what Pete has been tweeting out regarding coaches to the best of everyone's knowledge is happening. Freeman HC, Tommy OC, Balis S&C..........the only person on my list who I haven't gotten info on is Elston. But on The Shamrock or II, Sampson (I believe) said Elston's family is happy in South Bend and he's unsure he'd actually want to leave.
4) Also noted, but not by Sampson is that Tony Alford was first choice which suggests that Lance Taylor may not be going to LSU either (why would you go down as the bridesmaid?). I'm in favor of keeping as many coaches as ND can. I think general consensus would be ok with letting go of Del Alexander and Jeff Quinn though...right?

I'm sure this info has already been posted, but I just wanted to put in my two cents based on what I've heard.

Crystal Head has posted insider info in the past that has turned out accurate, even when unpopular like Coan starting against VT when that seemed an impossibility. Hopefully he’s right.

You could go with Daniel Jones there. However Cutcliffe also coached these two brothers that never amounted to much: Peyton and Eli Manning.
 

GATTACA!

Tommy and Hiestand crossed path while Tommy was playing and coaching. Please dear lord it makes so much sense. Bring him back!

Appreciate this.

Small note, in this instance I'm OK keeping Del through signing period then letting him go. The WR room is too dire and we're hanging on by a thread to all 3. Every school does this so if we need to move on from him, you make that after the turn of February IMO. Changing HC's is dirty, position coach is more "aw shucks".

I mean not that has been good in the NFL but Daniel Jones was the 6th pick in the '19 draft.
