"Hey did you know that we beat alabama? Because we did. We beat Alabama. Twice. We beat Alabama twice." -Hugh Freeze

I know you guys don't want to hear an opinion different than 'poor ole piss whining' but honestly, I think he means that Saban can call one time and make a huge impact because he's Saban. Freeze has to call 12-15 times just to make up the ground of 1 Saban phone call.

It's a compliment to Saban, who obviously is a great recruiter.

Saying Freeze doesn't want to work and put in the effort is laughable though. Other than Saban, I'd say he's the hardest working recruiter in the SEC.

Inb4:cheating, bagmen works hard, etc. and because Tennesee fans are in this thread, inb4 were all just fat, poor, stupid, racists.

Ole Miss is currently #36 in recruiting after being caught cheating. Seems like pretty concrete evidence to me.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills....

Freeze never said anything about having to call players 12-15 times. He said he has to personally recruit 12-15 players, right?

You're right. I read the article earlier this morning and posted later. I forgot he said players. Point still stands though. Saban makes one call and is in the game on his guy. Freeze has to work harder to offset the Saban effect. It's not whining though. It's a compliment to Saban.

LOL, you know that if this was Bama, MSU or LSU or any other team for that matter you would be posting like no other.

We can talk those facts next February when it actually matters

To the Op, I thought it was a good post. I don't see why everyone is upset?

There was no reason to extend the sentence with "inside this building" if it wasn't necessary. It seems pretty obvious that he's creating "back doors" for himself if things get too hot.

That's awfully specific.
