Pace was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2016.
Freeman believes Tressel profoundly impacted his life. He hopes to bring the same qualities the former Ohio State coach created for the Buckeyes into his Notre Dame program. James Laurinaitis was Freeman's teammate at Ohio State. They developed a tight-knit relationship in college that has continued into the present day. Now a graduate assistant at Notre Dame, Laurinaitis has seen Freeman adopt Tressel's coaching and teaching philosophies of compassion, humility and wisdom.
Freeman has studied and incorporated what Sampson called the “Book of Tressel” at Notre Dame: Memorize teammates’ names, hometowns and high schools, research All-Americans who had worn their number and learn the school's alma mater song, among other things.
