Better an unknown than a name brand like Meyer or a rising star like the Cincy coach.
I wonder what USB fans think of the hire.
This demonstrates how little you know about the inner workings of ND football. Not that you should know, but the fan base is ECSTATIC about making Freeman the HC. It's kind of analogous to when Harbaugh left. Stanford fans were really happy David Shaw was elevated to HC from being a coordinator on the staff.
Like Shaw, Freeman oversaw an impressive unit and does well on camera. Freeman, perhaps unlike Shaw, is also known as a fantastic recruiter, though I think in Shaw's case that box was checked by the "who better than a guy who played at Stanford" to sell it. So a lot of similarities between Freeman and Shaw. Plus, they are both Black men if that is materially relevant.
