c'mon. We're going to have to hire someone and whoever it winds up being sooner or later we will probably find out about some wicked shiz he did once upon a time. With this hire, we'd just have it all out there on the front end.
What's funny in all of this is people acting like they are owed the opportunity to forgive or not to forgive Freeze (or Shiano for that matter) for what they did. Its sillyDo you want to forgive him and give him another chance because you love him as a human being and believe he has turned his life around, or because he might help Tennessee win?
Lulz. I don't really care, I just think its another form of hypocrisy.
If Freeze is hired, do you guys think that the media will roast us over us accepting him and not accepting the Schiano hiring? Asking for a friend.I know it is apples to oranges, but the media doesn't care about that. They want to prove that they were right even if it is incorrect.
By the way I would be for the hire.
Winning cures everything. Look at the way the media portrayed Petrino a few years ago when they were winning.If Freeze is hired, do you guys think that the media will roast us over us accepting him and not accepting the Schiano hiring?

Here's the full quote from Simonton.
"I do think that the Hugh Freeze stuff has some legs, talking to some people. There was interest a year ago when Pruitt was initially making his inaugural staff for Tennessee, with Hugh Freeze. That obviously did not happen and they went with Tyson Helton. I think there's some mutual interest there. There's gonna be some hurdles, though, to make that happen. One is the SEC and two, I think, is some folks in Tennessee's administration."
Kiffin is a lower tier coach. You can't make a statement and then move the goal posts. Most coaches are given 1 or 2 year extensions at a time. Enos was not going to be fired...
There's a 90% chance this is a promotion from within. I bet Pruitt/Fulmer won't even discuss Freeze. Pruitt's initial staff was largely made of guys he knew or worked with before.who did fulmer hire when he was head coach? he promoted from with in more times than not....in fact every time except the dave clawson deal. i think that will be at least metioned when he and pruitt coverse about next steps.
