Our final podcast is live. We talk Fiesta Bowl, what we'd hope to see in the future, thoughts on shutting it down, and oh yeah, hang out for the post-credits because there's some #HAILGAMBLOR stuff and an end far too perfect than anything we planned.

"I don't see interim head coach as a promotion." Said that the confidence level in the staff has him sticking to his guns on no interim and doesn't rule out an internal hire at the end of the day.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

"Let me stress that we always are talking about improvements. Constantly." Mentions a three year financial plan for the program.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick said there was a "Freudian slip" or two along the way...perhaps the "Freeman is the next head coach" Golf Channel slip? (Please say yes, Jack)

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

"I think we can play with anyone in the country right now. Can we get better? Always" - Swarbrick

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Every question digging into the coaching search is getting an answer and posture similar to 12 years ago. Full confidence from Swarbrick and absolutely not showing his hand.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Great question on if BK had reached a ceiling at ND. Swarbrick says he doesn't want to answer for him. BK did, however, tell the team that this was all about having another opportunity and that the timing was right for him and his family. Says were similar to Riley's comments.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Question on if BK mentioned anything else he wanted ND to change. Swarbrick says conversations always happened and what they could do. Again, working to put to bed any rumors that there was something structurally or operationally deficient in how ND Football runs things.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Another facilities question, phrased by @PeteSampson_ as a "what's next" for what's needed. Swarbrick believes they have the best indoor facility in the nation, notes NFL scouts have said the same. Says there will be "continued investment" in facilities and future Gug expansion.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick needs "more time to process" what the recent moves of BK, and other coaches, means to the college football landscape. We all need time to process, Jack. We all do.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

"Well designate the person that makes the jump ball calls" and the coin toss. Sticking to the no interim. Makes it clear BK will have no part in it.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

No assistants are going to LSU with BK at this time.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

"I don't want everyone thinking that Notre Dame isn't working full steam." Mentions assistants recruiting on the road.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick wants to do the "best job we can" in the coaching search and not "the fastest job we can"

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick says he hasn't reached out to anyone yes, but that people have absolutely reached out to him.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick also will put emphasis on being a "development program"

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Top two things on the screening list are fit and ND and how you win.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Compares the situation to 12 years ago in which "Rebuilding a program" was high on the list and that isn't there now. They will make a list of, well, sounds like TRAITS, needed for the next head coach. Build a list and then screen off of that.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick says he doesn't keep a list of candidates because every search has "its own dynamics"

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick wasn't completely blindsided. Said there was enough things that happened in the weeks prior that gave him the impression that this could happen.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Said BK called him to resign. No chance to match. Wild.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick says the University will do the search. No outside firm.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Swarbrick asked if BK relayed any of the conversations he had with other schools. Swarbrick said no such conversations were had and also shoots down the rumors that there was some type of facilities disagreement that they couldn't provide to better the program.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Interim coach question right off the bat by @EHansenNDI. Jack says no question has been made and doesn't feel a need to name one immediately.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Has mentioned multiple times that he's "on the search" so I highly doubt we will get anything more than an interim announcement today. Sorry Marcus Freeman stans.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Jack mentions that Notre Dame is in their current position because of the work of Brian Kelly and the rest of the ND staff.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

Jack mentions that the situations are different than the last time he had to do this 12 years ago. Had to fix a "broken program" and in 14 years the program has never been in better shape.

000

Her Loyal Sons @herloyalsons.com · 30/11/2021

And here we go, Swarbrick is at the podium.
