Notre Dame football coach Marcus Freeman was “close” to appearing on “Saturday Night Live” in December before the firing and arrest of former Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore derailed plans, according to comedian Shane Gillis. During a Tuesday appearance on the “Bussin’ With The Boys” podcast, Gillis, a diehard Fighting Irish fan, explained that he was behind nearly securing Freeman for the “Weekend Update” sketch during the Dec. 13 episode but plans fell through when the Moore scandal dominated headlines three days prior.
