Top of show on Finebaum, FL. sports writer well respected, wrote major article today saying UF passed on Freeze in HC search because of character issues. The writer will be on the air with Finebaum today. Don't know if referring to most recent search that yielded McElwain, or earlier with Muschamp.

Update: Found article, it was from late last week, but first I heard of it was today and Finebaum didn't articulate date of article. Anyway, will be interesting to hear what Bianchi has to say. Here's link to article:

That doesn't mean it was negative character issues. They probably just didn't like how open he is about his faith. Those were the issues with his character.

I have no idea, waiting on the interview, right now am googling to see if I can find the article. Sounded like writer's name was Bianchi?

Yet they have immortalized Tim Tebow, who was and is open about his faith.

Come on, man.

Freeze has been known to chew tobacco while he's fishing. That's probably what killed his chances with UF.

The administration didn't immortalized Tebows's faith. Just Tebow. What is hard to understand about this?
