MASSIVE GUEST ALERT: Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman joins the show as the Fighting Irish start spring practice for Freeman’s third season at the helm in South Bend. Freeman discusses reuniting with offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock, who coached Jayden Daniels to the Heisman Trophy last year at LSU. Freeman also talks about hiring a strength coach and how important that position is.

Freeman explains how he’s handling the quarterbacks after getting transfer Riley Leonard from Duke. Freeman also discusses how the Irish plan to replace offensive tackles Joe Alt and Blake Fisher.

Next, Tim Watts of On3’s BamaOnline joins to discuss how wildly different the program feels under new coach Kalen DeBoer. They’re playing music at practice, which Nick Saban didn’t do. They’re letting assistant coaches do interviews. Nick Saban didn’t do that, either.

But DeBoer was never going to work exactly like Saban did. But he’s alike in some ways. The Crimson Tide had a massive wave of visitors in the first week of spring practice, and it appears they’re ready to compete for the same kind of players they did under Saban.
