As much as we know about the. High character standards that CLF and his family live by, it's hard to believe that he would let himself be considered for the ND job knowing that his good friend really deserved it. I believe that CLF had his people/agent let it be known that he was not interested as long as Freeman was a candidate. I would never do that to a friend of mine, and I believe that coach feels the same way.

BK let it be known that he was leaving because it was nearly impossible to win championships in South Bend with the current restrictions at ND. why would CLF even consider it, when one of his main talking points throughout the year is to play for championships. I heard a report saying that earlier in the year BK tried to lobby the AD to add a position to the staff, but the university denied his request. BK hired him anyway and paid the salary out of his own pocket. Sounds like a coach with an age to grind.
