If and when Fick leaves I think Freeman is the guy.

Freeman seems the heir apparent, if we can hold him long enough. What am I saying--maybe he and Fickell will spend another decade together here?

Fickell passed UC's "three years and done" milepost with flying colors by turning down a top tier Big Ten program. Could UC be as consistently good as Virginia Tech was during Beamer's best years? With Ohio recruits, maybe better. How fun would that be?

The only difference is conference affialiation...there will always be that pull. I think if you don't have rampant sexual assault allegations he would've ended up at MSU last season...which means it's only a matter of time. Regardless, I'm thrilled with how his tenure has gone and won't let the end tarnish the means.

I respect your opinions Based on your working at a University and being on the inside, coaching, played at UC etc.
That said, it’s disappointing to read your post. I thought (wishful thinking?) he would’ve stayed even without the sexual assault issues at Michigan State.
