You've tuned into Irish Illustrated Insider. It's Monday, January 11th. I'm Tim Priester with Tim O'Malley from

Irish Illustrated. We are joined today, as usual, by Pete Sampson from the Athletic. And when we convened a

week ago, guys, we didn't know that we would have quite this much to talk about, but a lot

has happened.

Marcus Freeman has been hired as defensive coordinator from Cincinnati to replace Clark Lee,

Terry Joseph, Nordheim's safety's coach is off to Texas.

Nordame has a new quarterback and Jack Cohn, the grad transfer from Wisconsin.

Several players have entered the transfer portal,

but probably the one that we need to talk about the most,

and we'll do that after we talk about Marcus Freeman,

as Tommy Trembled decision to go ahead and enter the NFL draft.

But Marcus Freeman, Nor' name's number one choice.

Everybody's number one choice pretty much.

And he is Nordheim's new defensive coordinator.

What do you think, Tim?

Net gain of Marcus Freeman or one of my favorites, Tommy Trembal, you want Marcus Freeman for your program.

So Notre Dame won the week.

They won the week.

They won the weekend.

They're winning the offseason.

And there's very few people you're going to talk to,

and we haven't talked to any, that don't think Marcus Freeman is an absolute home run hire.
