Marcus Freeman is undeniably building something special at Notre Dame, turning the program into a competitive powerhouse. After taking over the coaching reins with high expectations, Freeman's leadership has shown significant growth, and the Irish have responded with tremendous success. His mantra of "one play, one life" and "reload" encapsulates the relentless, process-oriented mentality he instills in his team. The current 10-game winning streak speaks volumes about his ability to create a str -

Because we have nothing to lose. We are supposed to lose. That’s what makes the Irish dangerous. They need to play like that too. Play loose! Take chances! Fight hard in controlled chaos! We definitely CAN win this! GO IRISH!

As per Urban Meyer. And I agree with him. He points to superior coaching as being the X factor for this run and that only means the arrow is pointing upwards. There are only 3 players on listed as a top 10 draftable prospect here and one has been injured since October. I think this team program has a lot more growth left in it if they can keep this coaching team together. Plus there is a shed load of talent coming back. Some of the true freshman like Moore and Knapp have been incredible. Both 3
I know we've been getting after the whole coaching thing, so as a little break, I figured I would rant a little bit about this sham of a movie. Do you want the real story? Yes, one of my degrees is film, so I know it's fiction; but there is a difference in fiction and exploiting a kid.
Here's the story. The Blind Side claims that the Tuoys found Oher on the side of a road. What I was told by a number of sources, however, is that Oher was already at Briarcrest when the Tuoys found him. He was brought into the home of a pastor and was shooting hoops in the gym when they found him. What you have to know about the Tuoys is that she was big time at Ole Miss in undergrad and Tuoy was a huge basketball player for them in what would be considered glory years. Their kids, unfortunately, weren't going to be a part of that glory, because they lack athletic ability. The Tuoys saw a chance to bring Oher into their home and get him to Ole Miss so they could walk around the Grove like they ruled the roost, again. TSSAA won't let you pay for a kid's school if they aren't immediate family, so they adopted him. After getting dominated in high school as a player, it came time for the recruiting process. (What I learned is that raw talent will get you into college. It doesn't matter how badly you played in high school, because we have film of the kid & he was atrocious.) Anyway, the head coach at Briarcrest used Oher to elevate himself into the college game by telling Fulmer, you can have Oher if you take me, too. The Tuoys found out about this and said, hell no, he's going to Ole Miss. This left the coach scrambling, but he duped Orgeron into hiring him by saying Oher was going to UT. Unfortunately, Oher couldn't pass classes to get into Ole Miss, so he had to take some online classes. The tutor played by Kathy Bates did all of his work for him, so much so that the BUI made Oher retake those classes, because it was obvious that he hadn't done the work.
Note: The Producer produced PS I Love You, so it's no wonder that Ms. Tuoy's role has become central to the movie. You can't tell me she went to the projects of Memphis and yelled at some thugs in a city that lost the Per Capita Murder Rate Championship to Detroit by 3 murders this year, or that a coach would allow her on the field, especially a guy with an ego like the real Briarcrest head coach.
Anyway, there was a book out that stretched the truth, but the new movie completely kills the truth. The Tuoys have ridden this poor kid's coattails the whole way simply to make themselves look better. She is old Southern money, so it makes sense. Anyway, it's my opinion, from my sources, that there is a special place in hell for people who exploit a kid like this; and I refuse to see the movie. There's your break from the coaching search.
(PS - there's a whole other storyline to the football coach snaking his way through everything that is continuing as we speak. I think his story is much better and doesn't have to be fabricated.)
