The Irish didn’t waste anytime finding Brian Kelly’s replacement, they actually didn’t have to go very far either. In a move that should not have surprised many, Notre Dame will name defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman as their next head coach. It’s an exciting moment so let’s take a look a the reactions from around Twitter.
The Athletic’s Chris Vannini
What a rise for Marcus Freeman. Starts coaching in 2010, becomes Cincinnati DC in 2017, then Notre Dame DC and a top-5 recruiter in 2021.
Now the head coach at one of the most historic teams in all of sports. https://t.co/DlJ8yML1LH

#NotreDame will have an electric recruiter as its head coach in Marcus Freeman. The last few years he’s been one of America’s best defensive coordinators in keeping points off the board too. https://t.co/q89QOO0R28
