This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Your 3rd paragraph nails it. by revressbo
I’m not going to say there’s *no* difference between 10-2 and 5-7… but that’s also kinda what I’m saying, particularly if that 10-2 only involves wins over tomato cans. ND’s mantra historically is winning big games and national championships.
Freeman might be Weis. He might be Meyer. If he’s the latter, amazing for us. If he’s the former, that’s not awful for us. He’ll pull great recruiting classes (like Weis). And he’ll be out the door in 4 years, but it’ll only have been 4 years since we were a consistent top-10 program, so that should help us in our next search (unlike when we hired Kelly and it had been 15 years). But at least Freeman seems to give us more of a shot than BK ever did.
If Freeman’s Kelly, well… at least he’ll be a likable Kelly.
