.....looks bright. That many of us (myself included) thought he would need no learning curve was foolhardy - and at some other programs, maybe a 1st year coach CAN get by without making mistakes. But at ND, with the standards we demand, playing the schedule we play, it was unrealistic to expect that even could be the case. The same can be said of Parker, he will get better as well. It's simply unfair to expect them to both be perfect so early in their tenures. Golden and the wisdom he brings to the defensive side of the ball was VERY evident against USC last night. That Marcus has Golden here says volumes about Marcus; that his ego can handle learning AND he's clearly smart enough to LEARN - THAT'S why the future is bright. Marcus Freeman is clearly where he wants to be and he'll be very successful here, and it will happen in the very near future.
