can be a big benefit for Freeman. Possibly even an ex HC. I'm a big fan of what Tommy was doing and think he's going to be a star in the coaching world, but this move could benefit both programs.
ND will have to make the right hire and hopefully ND doesn't lose other assistants, especially Harry, but I think this could be a great thing for ND.
we should definitely have gotten a highly experienced, as close to elite as possible, OC.
Because as you stated, he's a defensive guy..so this could be a blessing in disguise IF we make the right hire (and not because I think Rees is terrible, but because the truth is Rees is still green and still cutting his teeth as an OC, which is a bad pair for a defensive guy still cutting teeth as a HC).
