Welcome back, everybody. This is Irish Illustrated Insider. I'm Tim Prester with Tim O'Malley from Irish Illustrated. We are joined by Pete Samson of the Athletic. We are all completely back now from Stanford.

Norr-Dames huge win over Stanford to finish the regular season 9 and 3.

We look ahead to the bowl destination, the potential of playing LSU.

And this week, a couple days ago, Marcus Freeman said that he wanted to bring his staff back intact.

24 hours later, it was no longer intact.

Chance he stuck he is out as a wide receivers coach in notre day yeah if i figured there'd be one offensive change um but it would be

after the bowl my guess was going to be dealing mccullough taking a job um but if i had to take a

second guess it would have been chansy stuckies gone i did not think it'd be firing i thought had to take a second guess, it would have been,

Chauncey Stuckey's gone. I did not think it would be firing. I thought he would take a job too on the West Coast. Third guest would have been Jared Parker. Fourth

guest probably would have been a weird firing. And here we are. Yeah, you got the second

guest and the fourth guest together somehow.

Right, right. Yeah, it was, it's strange.

It's not a great process look for the head coach to say what he said on Monday and then 24 hours later jettison the receivers coach.

You know, so that sort of gets you to the, okay, we're in a position where Marcus Freeman actually didn't know that the receivers coach needed to be changed on Monday when he talked to us.

Or he did know and he just said what he said for some reason that I can't quite fathom.

I'm hoping it's the second one.

Me too.

I hope it's the second one as well.

The first one would be very concerning to me that he just found out the receiver's coach needed to change on Monday afternoon.

Well, yeah, that would be.

I don't buy that as,

no, I don't buy that.
