Is Freeze's Godly character a facade?

quote:

In fact, Bianchi says Tunsil’s murky situation with the NCAA is “essentially why the Florida Gators never considered hiring Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze.”



quote:

After Florida hired McElwain, UF Athletic Director Jeremy Foley told me that some potential coaching candidates had been eliminated because of character issues. Although Foley never mentioned Freeze by name, it’s quite clear now why the Ole Miss coach was never a candidate to coach the Gators.


quote:

Freeze ended up getting a contract extension with the Rebels after that.

Basically UF doesn't need the headache.

Meanwhile Ole Miss can't compete without it.

May 4th? I'm sure this has never been discussed here over the last 3 months.

Slow on the draw. Belle beat me to it.

Hugh Freeze seems slimy as hell, I have no doubt his character is questionable at best. He puts on an act that the greatest bull shitters should pick up on from a mile away.

I don't remember Urban having character issues at Utah when he was hired at Florida. And a lot can be ignored when you win a national title in year 2 and another one 2 years later. But point still being, he didn't bring baggage with him to Florida, he created it while he was there. And maybe Florida didn't want to deal with the same type of BS again, just a thought

I agree that Meyer is a POS but Paterno and Sandusky have the top two spots locked up. In whatever order you'd like.

Urban didn't have any character issues prior to UF. I'm not sure what character issues he had at UF but I'll leave that up the UG and UT fans.

He didn't mind recruiting a few thugs here and there but you need those to win.

ETA: There was no fan support for Freeze either. We didn't want him.

Hugh Freeze does not have character issues. His team happens to beat your program in football games and posters on tRant are upset that Ole Miss isn't a guaranteed W anymore.

or maybe he's in the middle of an NCAA investigation and had his prized player admit to being paid by coaches on national television. Maybe you don't consider those to be character issues, but most logical people do. And trant didn't write that article, and "his team" beat the shite out of Hugh Freeze
