Rees managed it against Stanford 6 games into the season

And that wasn't after 3 different OCs in 3 years. I'm not going to dig through every teams records to find other situations that are like the one we currently have at ND.

I do believe some of what Freeman was saying about the young players believing the hype. There were many players who played poorly against NIU, not just Leonard.

He played a terrible game, but acting like he was the sole issue is not correct
