Right now, his refusal to deal with the weak link on this team's coaching staff (Tommy Rees) has cost us two games that were easily winnable, and quite frankly, they should have been blowouts.

Freeman not having taking care of this problem so far means that it's on him. As it is commonly said, the buck stops with him.

I don't see Rees getting let go this year, but if Freeman wants to salvage this season to a reasonably good bowl game, he'd better let someone become "co-OC" sooner, rather than later.

I want Marcus Freeman to succeed, much like how I wanted all of the ND coaches in my time to succeed. Yes, that even Davie when he first started.

I truly believe that Coach Freeman wants the best for our program, and he honestly believes in ND tradition, etc.

I'm willing to give Freeman a mulligan for this year, much like how we gave Brian Kelly a couple of them during his first two years, but with all of that talent on the roster, he'd better produce results quickly, since the fanbase isn't patient at all.
