Comments from insiders here about TR and MF not seeing eye to eye.
Freeman was the right person for the HC position over Rees especially, but if Freeman and TR really had that big of an issue, freeman and ND would have been WAYYYYYY more prepared for him leaving. Just like Jack was NOT prepared for Kelly to leave.
That sounds like Tommy’s dad talking.
Quietly and consistently getting better every week and Milroe with a double hat trick today both on the ground and in the air. Tommy looking like he made a great career move about now...
Looking at Bama’s recruiting classes the last 4 years it should happen. They have been better than Georgia’s and everyone else’s.
Do we think he would recruit?
I think there's one more... What's his name? Uhh ahhh Kirby Smart, yeah that's it!
Although he's DC, not OC so maybe that's the trick then?
Tommy, Milroe, and that entire offense in general have come a LONG way since September and figured out who they are and how to work together. I'll admit that I wasn't thrilled with hiring Tommy and after the Texas game, I was ready for him to start looking for his next job, but I was wrong. He's figured it out and is doing a good job. Whether he can dial up a game to beat Georgia next month remains to be seen, but I'm happy with his improvement from September until now.
Tommy did an excellent job in adjusting his offense to the talents of his QB. That’s the key in CFB.
To say the least
Himself
Ian book
The real answer is John McNulty, who again, is back to Tommy as an analyst right now
May I recommend someone he shouldn’t hire? Goes by the initials Gerard Parker.
It's funny, but as long as Ian has cut his teeth somewhere and isn't coming in green, I'd be for it. Very smart kid that understands football, he was a more athletic Rees.
People have hated Tommy since he time as a player. Always struck me funny that people were more hateful of a guy playing above his status as oppose to the players that failed to live up to theirs and wound up on the bench. If the later lived up to their potential, Rees never sees the field.
Tommy spent damn near 10 years at ND between a player and a coach, which was 1/3 of his entire life. On top of that, he really, really knows ball. Didn’t deserve near the hate he got.
I'll one up that...... Then doubling down on buchner heading into the 2022 season. I think he did OK covering up for his biggest mistakes.
To play devil's advocate, we didn't get the Buchner who committed to ND. We got a version who missed an entire season of football to COVID and tinkered with his throwing motion in the interim. While I'm sure McCarthy would have been the much better choice no matter what, you have to wonder what could have been if Buchner was busier playing football as a senior instead of tinkering with something that already worked...
I still think BK had a hand in which QBs we were going after while he was here. You look at some of the low hanging fruit we took as far as Clark and Pyne, and then as soon as BK bolts in the span of 6 months we're going after Moore, then Rees lands Carr, steals Minchey, and gets Hartman to transfer.
