NO head coaching experience which should almost be a prerequisite for hiring a head coach.BIG DIFFERENCE!
Freeman had much more experience prior to even becoming the DC at ND
1 year GA for OSU
2 years LB coach for Kent State
3 years LB coach for Purdue
1 year co-DC and LB coach for Purdue
4 years DC for Cincinnati
1 year DC for ND
More stops and more years.
Faust, Davie, and Weiss should have taught ND a lesson.
