Toughness was the tone and the teaching point. But there was another side to the old master sergeant, one that came out through his work with the Shriners in middle Ohio. Michael Freeman dressed up as a clown to entertain children.

To this day, Marcus has an affinity for clown masks—the scary kind, as opposed to the Bozo look his dad employed. At random moments around the house, he will leap out with one of the masks on to terrify his children, who range in age from senior in high school (Vinny, a wrestler, is headed to Cornell next year) to 6 years old.

Narrating a slide show in his office, Freeman, the consensus national coach of the year last season, worked his laser pointer around a family photo from 2019 at the University of Cincinnati. Wife Joanna and their children are all wearing Halloween-type costumes, and there’s Freeman, then the Bearcats' defensive coordinator, in an orange jumpsuit and a frightful clown mask.

This particular clown has a Peyton Manning-esque forehead and wild orange locks.
