[Giddyup]

Lot of skiers in Indiana

 

[irishog77]

Paoli Peaks, right there in Indiana, is a skier's paradise.

Utah is the new Fresno

Nah, ACamp’s mom is double booked for the next several weeks

 

[Irishdrunk]

It's all fun and games until Freeman needs support from admin.

Is Jack adding Freeman as part of the search process?

 

[Giddyup]

Freeman is his own man. Don’t blame Swarbrick anymore

 

[Giddyup]

This o line hire is huge

You are the first person I’ve ever describe Paoli Peaks as a skier’s paradise lol.

 

[StPaul_Irish]

Rick Majerus?

Like, Honey I shrunk the OLine?

 

[StPaul_Irish]

Are we not gonna give him credit for turning Ott into a 3 star recruit to starting as a freshman and being one of the best OL's as a freshman?

Mel or Steve?

I won’t pretend to know much, but this career path concerns me with Funk. Though I 100% expect he will be on whatever list.

- 2020 - : BYU — Offensive Line Coach
- 2018-2019: UTSA — Offensive Line Coach
- 2017: Indiana State — Run Game Coordinator/Offensive Line Coach
- 2016: Purdue — Offensive Line Coach
- 2015: Akron — Run Game Coordinator/Offensive Line Coach
- 2011-14: Michigan — Offensive Line Coach
- 2009-10: San Diego State — Offensive Line Coach
- 2008: Ball State — Offensive Line Coach
- 2004-07: Colorado State — Offensive Line Coach

While experienced, he seems to kinda run a cycle of gets bumped up level, starts from scratch, gets bumped up, starts from scratch. Why is he not staying at the P5 level?

Also just followed Grimes and Mateos the Baylor guys so I’m sure some/all their recruits and possibly even players due to COVID Year/Mission.

Looks like he has an uncanny knack for working for head coaches who either retire or get canned. First job is pretty low end, then he does a pretty good job of moving up. So he’s an ok veteran which is probably a good result considering. Damn sure better than Watt

 

[stpeteirish]

Didn't know the bolded.

Probably a done deal then.

2016 was the year Parker was interim head coach. Think Freeman was there then too

 

[MacIrish75]

Dude worked at Indiana State. All I need to see. I’m sold!

 

[Rack Em]

Rick Majerus?

RIP

 

[TheRealLynch51]

The Loy has put out his offensive line coach list. There's like 13 dudes on it including the BYU OL coach and Chris Watt.

 

[irishog77]

RIP

Shit, I forgot Majerus DFO’d on us.

Then, yes, as St Paul alluded…Rick Moranis. He’s who MF is flying out to meet for the OL job.

 

[Dale]

So he’s an ok veteran which is probably a good result considering.

Bar: way too low

 

[slick7410]

Is Herb Hand on it? I’d stop short of Miami and visit Orlando to talk to him.

 

[Sea Turtle]

Time to go poaching, Notre Dame style:

 

[notredomer23]

Bar: way too low

 

[IrishFanForever23]

What does flight tracker say? Nobody is flying a jet from SB to Utah for the nba all star game. Lets be honest, nobody watches the NBA anymore.

Jaden Ivey?

 

[ColinKSU]

So they’re hiring Watt.

Did we at least get Hayes Fawcett to make us a “Top 13” info graphic? Feels like a missed opportunity…

 

[IrishSteelhead]

So they’re hiring Watt.

That’s the beauty of this thread, in comparison to the OC one:

We 100% know it will be Watt now, so all the fun in speculating and believing ND is capable of doing anything other than the bare minimum that the OC thread had is gone.

At this point the only productive thread would be one about “who should be the next AD?”

What will the average age of the coaching staff be IF we do in fact hire Watt?

 

[dang227]

Jaden Ivey?

Good call. I saw his mom was there

I can't remember a time when the ND beat was so lacking inside sources like this. I think with Rees leaving, it'll only get even worse.

Might be time to hire someone off the Cincinnati beat in hopes that they might have some connections.

 

[Sea Turtle]

So they’re hiring Watt.

You get Watt you pay for.
