I think that's already done. This would just be icing on the cake

ND must not be interested in Freeman. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out.

Home run hire

But it’ll probably depend on how things shake out at ND/Cincy. Hell ND may hire him themselves

If Fickle goes to ND, the bearcats likely nab him for their HC opening

Essentially its a power move by BK to ND......Make Freeman the HC or Im taking him. Forces ND ADs hand.


My thoughts exactly. BK doing his bro a solid.

I'm thinking this doesn't happen.

You have to imagine that Kelly already talked to Freeman while negotiating with LSU.

The conversation was probably, "Yes, I'd love to go with you, unless I get a HC offer."

Otherwise, he'd have just said yes and would be on the plane with Kelly like all of Lincoln Riley's staff.

Don't see this happening as he would have to move his family after a year and didn't want to last time but please let this happen!

Freeman will almost certainly be a head coach somewhere next year.

Freeman ain't waiting 6 or 7 years for a HC job.

yeah my only hold off on MF is he's become such a rising star one year here and he'll have some big offers in a less wild carousel next year. That would be 4 DCs in 4 years here

but that's just something you deal with

I'd be shocked if they can get Freeman, but I thought Kelly was off the table too.

I think Freeman will wait to see what ND does. He is a candidate for HC there. If they hire Fickell, he will likely be on the shortlist at Cincy as HC, as well.

I'd love to get him here, but we probably won't know for at least a short while as he needs to see how the dominoes fall.

We should be absolutely ecstatic if we can get Freeman to join. He would be MASSIVE for recruiting purposes.

Would LOVE LOVE LOVE This. Wanted him so badly last year.

That said, Freeman will either be:

- The next ND HC

-The next Cincinnati HC when Fickell gets the ND job
