Hugh Freeze mega thread and poll [merged]

[MarkVol123]

Ready????

Briles never admitted and was never caught purposely covering the rapes. FACT

Thus, Baylor did not have 100% cause for firing him. They fired him due to the report and multiple cases. He played ignorance and won.

Freeze was caught red-handed thus was fired with cause. FACT.

So he lost $16M over some phone numbers on a call log? Riiiiiiight

 

[dbarker]

I agree with you here. While I feel he is Sandusky of sorts, he was never proven this he got away with it. The OP won't wrap his head around that. Briles is a POS, but he wasn't caught red handed and was not proven to having hidden stuff. Thus he agreed to a lower payout.

 

[Border Vol]

Can we please get it through our heads that Hugh Freeze is not hireable in the SEC?

Regardless of what he tried to tell people (and if Hugh’s mouth is moving it means he’s lying), he was never in play for the Auburn job. Just like he wasn’t in play at South Carolina. Or Southern Miss. or Memphis last year. Or all those OC jobs he claimed to be involved with.

With the best agent in the biz, Hugh Freeze was unable to get a single dime of a $16M buyout. Not. One. Dime. Art Briles got $15M. You know the kind of skeletons you have to have in your closet to not collect one dime of an 8-figure payday? That isn’t just about some phone numbers on a call log. Wake up.

This is not a kind and gentle league. Not a lot of benevolence going on in the SEC in recruiting. And Hugh has enemies everywhere around this league and in Memphis. Scarlet letter around his neck on the recruiting trail.

And before and simpletons tell me “oh watch Florida hire him when Mullen leaves”. Uhhhh, last I checked Scott Stricklin is Florida’s AD. Go check where he was AD before Florida and get back to me.

And stop with the “he turned down Auburn bc he wants the Tennessee job” nonsense. He’s not some VFL people. And him turning down Auburn would be like a starving man turning down a Christmas turkey. He was never contacted. It was hilarious that that report came out that he was contacted and 20 minutes later Auburn announced Harsin.

And I won’t even go into the ridiculous tweeting and Briarcrest stuff here or the fact that as a program builder and sustainer he leaves a whole lot to be desired.

If you want to tell me he gets an NCST-ish type ACC job? I can buy that. But he’s not coming back into this league for at least 2-3 more years, if ever.

The Freeze hype on this board is just groupthink at this point. It makes no logical or rational sense.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Rejected what? There is no substance that freeze has some ban from the SEC. show me the evidence that he’s been earmarked. As a matter of fact, show me the evidence that any coach has been purely blocked from the SEC and not some article about an analyst job the year after he got canned. It’s a lie.

You sure are a confident guy for someone who has only been on VN for three weeks. About a month ago I was given
DE1’s name as one of the members with insider and reliable information from many long time users here. Go ahead and belligerently argue with him if you want, we cannot stop you.

If you think Jimmy Sexton was allowing Ole Miss to not pay Hugh a dime over some phone numbers on a call log, well LOL

college football fandom doesn’t come with a lot of context

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

There’s plenty of reporting out there on activity of Freeze making moves. He didn’t just get a contact extension and a bump in pay for winning. He wouldn’t get that unless liberty knows people are going to come calling. Freeze has zeroed in on jobs he wants. Let’s just see what happens when Mullen pops smoke and Freeze is the head man in Gainesville next year.

I thought UT was Freezes dream job? I put more value in what DE1’s posts than yours. Didn’t you come in here immediately after joining Dec. 11 making some very strong predictions that turned out not to be true? I believe several people were using the term “troll” in describing you about that time.

Look at you just assuming it was phone numbers. OP, you refuse to see logic because you don't like Freeze it is ok to admit that. However, stop yelling at folks who want better for the university.

Perfect

 

[KingtUT]

Everybody needs to Freeze on this coaching talk.

 

[vol05]

Oh, joy... if Fulmer is still hiring coaches, you can BOOK Marrone or Malzahn. Meh.

Yep. If that strong. Lol...

 

[vol66]

Yeah, I mean I remember when Fulmer was fired. The whole song and dance about “mediocrity”....In five years at Ole Miss he had almost the same record as Fulmer’s last five years. They both won 39 games, one got fired and the other is the hot new name.

Freeze is the new Gruden.

Best way to make something stop is to start a thread about it

Right up there with jokers who reply "Who cares?" in a thread.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

It’s a moot issue and you will believe what you want but he never was at any point.

I asked you before , how do you know this? Making a blanket statement is not going to be believed unless you provide some supporting information.

 

[CA_Vol]

HIRE FREEZE NOW

(Psst.....if he had coached in 2017, he was going to get fired)

I think it’s nuts too, but people are miserable and are looking for any way out at this point. The grass looks greener to them everywhere else.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Oh please come at me with facts.

Fact: $16M buyout and the best agent in the biz couldn’t get him one dime.

He broke the covenants in his contract due to personal/NCAA issues. Noone is arguing he is a saint.

It is a risk hiring him. I'd rather hire a good coach with issues than a bad coach who has his own issues...

No Mark, go to your corner.

Some people are attention hoes

 

[VOLlivin_inbama]

He is either a very deep insider in the SEC or Hugh’s bro-in-law. Either way he obviously knows a lot about a lot. So he’s my new go-to insider!!

 

[NATHAN05]

Well crap......I was all on the Freeze snowmobile until newbie here started spitting truth and making me think. Guess ill stay ho-hum happy like a sheep with Pruitt like im told.

 

[Chippo]

Probably not,,

Hugh Freeze would make a great offensive coordinator. I hope CJP will give him a call

Probably not,, Pruitt wouldn't want anyone
showing him up and Freeze wouldn't want to be an underlying to Pruitt.

Shaun Oakman was finally found innocent of the charges also from that whole Baylor scandal.
