I harbor no ill will towards him
I thought he did a good job while he was here. He helped bring in some good players, and I didn't really have any complaints about his performance as a GM.
I'd say that he was a safe choice for USC, that he knows his way around, and can do the job. They basically threw everything at him after their first choice, Courtney Morgan (Crimson Tide), turned them down.
I don't blame his wanting to leave for USC, especially if they upped his salary, gave him more power, etc. When he left, he did so at a time that was good for everyone around, and didn't leave us hanging out to dry like Brian Kelly did.
That being said, I see Mike Martin as an upgrade.
His move benefited ND greatly

He did exactly what anyone on this board would have done
1. double your salary
2. Take a job where it is easier to be successful.
3. Trade South Bend for just about anywhere else
no issue with the move but his parting comments were low class

We are in a good place with this recruiting team. We didn’t too bad
Under Chad either. People want to be part of ND staff and team now. We are a top option doe a lot of kids especially ones that also prioritize an education education.
Freeman and the ADs hardest work is to keep it where it is. Not suggesting they won’t but that’s the challenge.
A break out offensive performance this year and it gets even better with skill positions
Not sure. Still down in the minor leagues I believe.
