MM needs to go. He hasn't earned that type of investment. Let a new guy come in with that kind of backing. MM's teams initially stagnated, and then have regressed.

He needs to go. It has been three years now and I'm not seeing any signs of progressing towards being a competitive team. I'm actually seeing signs of regression. Simply put, our team is less than mediocre.

Freeman was a "continuity hire". It was a gamble that worked out for ND. It's not that much different than the gamble LSU took with hiring Mike Archer, which didn't work out.

He's not getting "paid to play"
While you may have a semantic legal argument, the reality is that he is indeed getting paid to play. The bottom line is that if he wasn't a player, he wouldn't be getting paid. Regular students don't get NIL money.

The two best coaches in my lifetime across all sports at all levels are Nick Saban and Phil Jackson.
I agree on Phil Jackson. I disagree on Saban.
I'll agree that Saban is the greatest college football coach of all time, but the NFL is where the big boys go to prove themselves, and Saban couldn't hack it at that level. The NFL is designed for parity. When your team is great, you get the worst draft choices and the hardest schedule. When your team sucks, you get the best draft choices and the easiest schedule. It's not like college where you can stockpile talent and maintain an advantage for an extended period of time. Saban quickly realized this and immediately went back to a level where he could sustain success.
I think Belichik is the better coach. He won all those Super Bowls despite all the structural obstacles designed to bring the top teams back to the pack.

Bill Belichik's record without Tom brady is abysmal. 84-103. That translates to a winning percentage of roughly 45%. He would be fired over and over if not for Tom Brady.
249-75 with Tom Brady with 6 championships.
Belichik gets credit for drafting Brady and developing him into that QB. The fact that Brady stayed with NE and led them to success shouldn't be a knock on Belichik. On the contrary, he should get credit for keeping him healthy, on the team, and highly productive all those years.

Tier 2 (super solid hires, reason for optimism)
Gibson, Guidry, Durkin
IMHO, there's no way that Guidry belongs in this tier. He's a journeyman HS and directional college coach, with only one season of coaching in the Power 5 conference level. I'll take a big pass on this guy.

Grades would not make her ineligible at this point. Her eligibility would be based on grades at the beginning of the semester. Her grades to this point might point to issues for next semester, but not now.
Not necessarily. If she was on the verge of blowing her GPA (coaches do track how students are doing throughout the semester), I can easily see a scenario where Mulkey sits her butt and tells her to get her academic house in order. I think the early season is actually the best timing to set her aside. This could all be preventative measures taken by Coach Mulkey to ensure Reese is on the team when the schedule starts to toughen up.
re: What makes you Optimistic & Pessimistic this game?
Posted by kbroom on 11/1/23 at 5:06 am
Optimistic:
-Really good LSU offense going up against a good, but not elite, Bama defense
-Poor defense going up against a mediocre Bama offense.
Pessimistic:
-It's still Saban and Bama.

Why is Media So Insistent That USC Won 2003 Championship
Could it be solely a southern bias?
LSU would have beat the shite outta them that year.
I've always viewed that talking point as being a knock against OU and/or the BCS process, rather than being a knock on what LSU accomplished. Nobody debated that LSU deserved to be in the BCSCG. It was always an OU or USC debate for who should have played in that BCSCG against LSU.
Before the final selection, USC was the consensus #1 in the human polls and LSU was the consensus #2. The major talking point leading up to the BCSCG, and then afterwards, was the Big12CG blowout and that OU didn't deserve to be there. The AP threw their "title" to USC as a knock against the BCS, not against LSU.

What was "busted" about it? It looked like a standard rollout play to me. Maybe the coverage got busted, but that's on UGa.
