Props to him today for not pulling any punches. He basically said, we're not very good, I'm not going to blame the previous staff but they kind of fricked things up, it's going to take time to come back, not everyone has bought in yet and frick you Steve Spurrier.

There was no rah rah bullshite at all.

KInda hard to be rah rah when you are the current coach of Ole MIss

mean no disrespect, but its common sense not to go in there trying to rile shite up when you're more than likely going to lose a majority of your games.

From what I understand, he's a very hard worker. He's quite innovative as well and I believe he was a good hire. Ole Miss is just gonna have to roll with some punches this fall and that's no fault of his.

Q. How do you view the city of Oxford as a recruiting tool?


quote:

COACH FREEZE: Well, have you ever been there? I'm sure you have. I could start and go for days. I'm glad you asked that. But people like Eli Manning and Michael Oher, Kendrick Clancy, Derrick Burgess, guys that are great ambassadors for not only Ole Miss and in the NFL doing very well, they choose to make that their living when they're not involved with their teams. I'm sure Eli could live anywhere he wanted to. I also saw Newsweek ranked Oxford as the number one college town in America. Sports Illustrated said we're the number one tailgate in the nation. Recruits, when they come there, they see a group of people that are very happy, that don't want to leave there. I think Oxford, Mississippi, is a great place to live. There's a lot of great places in the state of Mississippi, but I'd put that on the top. Where else could you go in the state of Mississippi where you find a town and university that is the home of three national championships, six SEC national championships, 13th all time in bowl wins, active in the nation and 20th in bowl appearances.


boom, still managed to sneak in a little shot too even though we suck

I think that Freeze will do fine at Ole Miss and get them back winning. I for one want all teams in the SEC to be strong and winning till we play them. What you 're saying is that he is no Orgeron.

He hasn't faced the wrath of Merlins yet. Once that happens all the life will be sucked out of him and Merlins will only get stronger.

I, for one, am excited to have Freeze. I believe he's a true long term hire and will get the support needed to do a good job. With Bjork as AD, he's already starting ahead of the last 4 coaches.

I didn't see his quotes but if this is what he said he just earned lots of respect.

The exact opposite of a snake oil salesman

He'll be good for us (maybe) but its going to take some time no doubt..long long ways away from being respectful again.

I'll say it every time a Freeze thread comes up. Dude is a winner, he's going to do well at Ole Miss.

I'd take him over a handful of coaches in the league.

Dooley, Joker, Muschamp.
