re: Explain the Harsin comparisons to DeBoer with logic.

11 of those years are from BK. The other 4 years are from 1 other coach/coaching change year.

I mean those definitely count, you can't pull 3 of Weiss' years and say that's Notre Dame's baseline.

Those were outliers more than anything.

Both of Freeman's classes are borderline top 10, depending on which service you use.

On3 says Notre Dame's average class since 2002 is #16.

You're talking about 1 or 2 games

Um, no.

Freeman lost 5 games in 2022 and 3 in 2023.

BK never lost more than 2 in his last 4 seasons.

There has definitely been a drop off.

and the schedules for ND have gotten tougher the past few years as teams like USC have improved. Last year for example they played 4 ranked teams when under BK they usually played only 2.

I recall them facing 4 or so ranked teams in years lile 2018 and 2019
