Respectfully, I see so much “well about that QB” or “well why not that coach”. It’s almost always based on information after the fact.

Matt Campbell at Iowa State was more qualified/proven than Freeman just based on resume. I’d guess that most would have wanted Freeman over Campbell. What if Campbell then blew up? People would be saying “well why didn’t they get Campbell?!?”.

True, but he was 79-9 as a head coach at Sioux Falls and Fresno State. More accomplished than Freeman when Kelly left.

That was never going to get him this job. No way anyone could put that on Swarbrick
