re: Freeman never wins the championship at Notre Dame… Nor will anyone else for that matter.

Winning Championships as a DC may not be Freeman’s goal. He wants to be a head coach and Notre Dame gives him that opportunity. Look at the exposure he will get at Notre Dame. Add that to playing a softer schedule and wham the head coaching offers may start rolling in after this next season. Could he have done that at LSU? Probably so but Notre Dame was the smarter choice. Now let’s just hope we meet them in the playoffs and light up ND’s Defense with 700 yards total offense and hold them to under 200 yards while out scoring them 77-10.
