All FB coaching rumors and speculation

[Cyclones1969]

Coach Campbell is perfect at Coach Speak. He would crush Fickell in an interview.
However, if Coach Campbell does interview with ND, I hope he says the words “Change the culture” in the first 5 minutes.

Matt is definitely a real pro at talking for 10 minutes and saying absolutely nothing.

John Gruden ! if Iowa and Ferentz can get away with it, why not Iowa State. lol

Adam Rittenberg on Twitter: "#NotreDame has not made a decision on an interim head coach, AD Jack Swarbrick says. Adds he feels "less of a need to have a designated interim." If they do name an interim HC, that person would NOT be a candidate for the permanent job." / Twitter



sounds like ND is keeping it in house for now when it comes to interim or lack of interim in this case.

FWIW I voted Hartline because I believe in that guys recruiting chips whether he’s bringing guys to CBus or Hawaii.

However I think Jay Norvell would be the “Home Run” of the list. His background would be an easy fit here.

So take with a grain of salt, but word (VTech alum friend) was CMC was offered the VTech job but asked for 8m/year and was turned down. Having 0 connections at either place, who knows if true but it would suggest he is listening to offers which isn’t unfathomable.

Ha! I have a real hard time believing that.

As a random aside since everyone is already in this thread and it doesn't seem to be posted anywhere else...

...anyone going to acknowledge Rob Gray's departure?

Can we merge this into the All FB coaching rumors and speculation thread?

Does he still have that terrible moustache?

He'd be dumb not to listen. I don't care how much you love your job - you are not doing yourselve any favors by not listening. Because the world is always changing and evolving. So to have your head in the sand and never listen or talk to anyone else is not good business...

unless your like the CEO of a incredibly rich company, then you can probably survive doing that. For the rest of us mere peeons, you should listen. Doesn't mean you should leave but always be aware. Even if you don't leave it might give you ideas as to what you need to do better where you are at.


Overall though this thread.... SMH.

That might be mostly true...with the only false part being that it was Matt who asked for the $8M.

There's nothing he can get there that he can't get here. And before you or anyone else says money, if were about money, he'd already be gone.

It means freeman is running the program, and unless he shows he’s incapable of doing so, he will be the next coach.

There are no terrible mustaches, only people that don’t understand facial hair.

This is a post-Campbell thread.

He basically said the current coaches know how to pick on a coin toss or when to call timeout. Head coach is a CEO and the coordinators, etc. are capable to coach a complete bowl game.

We dont hire a head coach is the plan. We hire a team of the smartest minds Ames has ever came up with.
