NOTRE DAME, Indiana — University of Notre Dame Dick Corbett Head Football Coach Brian Kelly announced the addition of Marcus Freeman to his coaching staff Friday. Freeman will serve as the Bob Hinton Defensive Coordinator, and will work directly with the Irish linebackers. The hiring will be effective at the conclusion of the University’s standard employment process.

“As we looked into finding someone to run our defense, it was important to find the right fit for our program and Marcus and his family are just that,” said Kelly. “He has had great success on the field, both running a defense and in his direct work with his linebackers. Additionally, he is considered among the elite recruiters in the coaching ranks.

“The work Marcus has done elevating the programs he has been a part of speaks for itself, but equally as important is the exceptional work he has done in building relationships with his staff and players. Marcus was our top choice to become our next defensive coordinator, and we are pleased he and his family will be joining us at Notre Dame.”

No chest. Afraid of getting homesick.

Logical answer: Similar money, HCIW opportunity, staying close to home with kids

Notre Dame, like some other schools, has endowed coaching positions.

If you can’t beat us during our worst season in 20 years, I guess you have to take what you can get.

And whoever we hire- they will beat your boys, too.

I was laughed at by you people earlier this week when I was giving you updates from the ground up here in South Bend about how he interviewed and what they pitched him.

I wish I had been wrong.

I never believed he was coming here anyway. He has never been away from Ohio and South Bend is just a stones throw. He is a Rust Belt guy and I guarantee would not be comfortable in the South.
