Agreed, even w/ ND’s 💰it’s still hard to get a great one, Bear to Saban

was decades because Bama fans kept saying, he’s no Bear, before Saban. I do think that plays a part in a coach being able to learn from his mistakes and get better from them. PS Notre Dame has a great one with Freeman that like Frank Beamer is turning down other opportunities and wants to stay. Maybe we can get that Franklin Freeman rematch in the National Championship game one day. Now that would be a lot of fun, but you are buying, because you are from the money school.😁 By the way when I went to South Bend, I went to a bar right down from the stadium, and the ND people never let me pay for a drink, It was really a dream come true for me, watching my childhood team play my college team, and the best part is we won that year. 😁 Wouldn’t be us if our post is all nice. 🤣🤣

Have to think there's some creative accounting going into some of these

I thought private schools didn’t have to report money

This is used to enforce Title IX spending, so everybody must report.
