Thanks to all who submitted questions for me and @Eric Hansen on our latest podcast. These are the questions we answered with timestamps.

26:20 • Marie Biafore - @biafore_marie: What grade would each of you give the Offensive game plan from Saturday? When Freeman says he is OK with the calls and it’s all about execution do you believe him or do you think that is just Coach speak? What would each of you do to fix the offense and try to salvage the season?

31:09 • Josh Ross - @jrossND: What has happened to this offensive line? We knew the interior was going to have growing pains but it seems everyone not named Joe Alt has really floundered. Is there an explanation for Fisher’s huge regression?

34:24 • @AllenSturgill: 1. The Irish use to play the best 5 offensive lineman on Saturday it seemed they treated Louisville as a testing ground. Will the Irish play the best 5 moving forward? 2. What is your opinion of the WR room. Do they have the talent to separate from a defense?

41:06 • @CharlesWWolfe: What are your perspectives on third and short calls? Estime seems like he was sculpted by Michelangelo for those situations, but Parker seems to keep calling more exotic looks (I know Estime got stuffed, but the line formation looked strange to me)

45:56 • @NDJeff06: When will we start to see Parker use motion to help identify the defense? And this leads to, when will Parker allow Hartman to call an audible at the line when the box is stacked? Seems like Freeman and co are not trusting of the 6th yr signal caller in that regard.

50:12 • Rick Dierolf - @Irish357: I feel the administration at Notre Dame feels success is measured by how much money the football team brings in via TV and apperal deals. Not paying the buyout for the Utah OC is an prime example, do you ever think it will change

53:55 • Babaganoush - @PLACT_ITFDB: Do we know full story on how serious ND was w/ Collin Klein & Sean Lewis after they botched Ludwig hire? How does AD allow his rookie HC to rely on an inexperienced OC who was demoted from that position at WVU for poor performance? Biggest waste of talent I can recall at ND.

59:20 • Nathan Reynolds - @Enforcers2117: If we lose to usc and with the bye week being the next week, is that the perfect time to go to Angeli and/or Minchey to see if they can be the guy for next year? Do you think they would? Do you think they should?

1:01:40 • Babaganoush - @PLACT_ITFDB: Looks like the price of independence is one ND can no longer afford. Insisting on playing n Ireland when they have 8-game gauntlet? Are they that helpless in scheduling as Independent that “that’s just the way it is”? Gotta take a toll on student athletes. They’re clearly gassed.
