Other teams have gone in and poached big names from other programs.
I get that at this point it would take an astronomical offer to lure any of the top current guys (and a few may not come no matter the offer, but we don’t know that without trying).

- I wanted to wait for Fickell, but after Schwarbrick said he had no list we were in trouble [NT]
- DonMiller - 10:38am 9/9/24
- That was a lie...there were people who claim to be in the know - Chrisb - 12:57pm 9/9/24
- Freeman has to perform a QB swap and hope it works - OklahomaIrishman - 10:15am 9/9/24
- Freeman is like Dan Devine. He won’t change QB’s unless Leonard get’s hurt and forces the change… [NT] - Sjnd5359 - 3:31pm 9/9/24
- The players see what is happening. [NT] - bobdrake - 10:40am 9/9/24
- I wouldn’t hit the panic button yet. A&M is a much better team than NIU. - Frank L - 9:51am 9/9/24
- Hopeful message Frank - ndinga - 11:10am 9/9/24
- Even though he’s young and inexperienced as a coach I like Marcus. - irishfaninPA - 9:18am 9/9/24
- Freeman was a gamble by short-timer Swarbrick at that time. - TakethetrainKnute - 9:12am 9/9/24
- I think the biggest misnomer is that we need to hire an elite coach.. - Chrisb - 9:10am 9/9/24
- Removing out of reach candidates and buzz names, do you have a top 3 today that you would hire? [NT]

- Isn’t that always the issue? [NT]
- Frank L - 10:17am 9/9/24
- When you have Kelly/Mark Richt, yes. When you have Freeman or Manny Diaz, there are better options. [NT]
- oldirish - 11:52am 9/9/24
- I don't have a list of candidates.. - Chrisb - 12:52pm 9/9/24

- Even if ND goes 3-9 this year, I don’t see how ND can fire their 2nd Black coach after 3 years. [NT]
- Shadow_of_the_Dome - 9:09am 9/9/24
- Marcus is a good guy. So was Jerry Faust. But he’s paid to coach, and despite his goodness, he does - Sjnd5359 - 4:17pm 9/9/24
- Likely true. ND also shot itself in the foot by not removing other coaches after 3 years... - TakethetrainKnute - 1:00pm 9/9/24
- MF should be on the need to know basis. Let the coordinators coordinate. [NT] - ELP - 9:13am 9/9/24
