Well hes off to a good start, winning the press conference is huge and hopefully wins some people over.

I'm impressed with what I've heard, so far.. a little preachy, but legit, nonetheless...

There it is Joseph Goodman's Question, paraphrased, "There was a time with Greg Sankey didn't want to give you a second chance, what makes you think you deserve a second chance"

and he kept on after he answered, what a douchecanoe bamer looking to write his next hit piece

He handled that tough question pretty well.

Seems contrite. The reporter seems like a dick.

Oh it was Joseph Goodman. Big fricking surprise. I’d like to dig into his life.

Goodman is an insufferable count

Goodman is as pretentiously county as they get.

"I do think that I have a gift to help develop quarterbacks"

This has been a really good press conference. I like what I hear from Freeze especially the Nick Saban bit.

Hugh's responses to all the personal stuff were awkward at times, but when he actually got to talk a little football, he sounds like he's got it together.

It's probably cringey because he's had to say the same thing 10X during the press conference, and there's only so many ways you can say, I'm sorry.

I think he was pretty open about his mistakes and like you said he’s no doubt had to talk about it nonstop.

Comes with the territory though and hopefully that’s out of the way and we can go on and win on the recruiting trail/football field.

Cautiously optimistic after hearing the press conference. He handled it about as well as anyone could hope. (Side note: I'm not sold on Cohen at all. This dude came out and said Freeze was THE number one candidate from day one. I mean, why even say that when everyone knows that's a lie?)

Anyways, I hope he keeps his word on his excitement to get out recruiting. Him and Caddy have got to get the Auburn brand out in front of these kids.

He admitted his mistake, that he will work everyday to earn the trust of the Auburn people. That his family is his rock. Not much else to say.

he may not have been Cohen's top choice but he was definitely some of the main boosters' top choice from what we know, so it's not technically a lie lol

Did they mute Goodman’s microphone? I heard the original Q & A but never heard the follow up questions.

Cohen isn’t lying. It was a 2 man race from beginning. They were 1a and 1a from football standpoint. Freeze is way more polished than Kiffen after hearing this. Damn that was a solid presser. We bout to win some ships quickly. Get behind that guy for sure.

He kept on about the second chance like 2 or 3 times. I think they gave him the mic then immediately took it away after his question, knowing he'd be the douche canoe we all know.

I'm convinced we made the right hire after the press conference.

Let me know when we get some recruiting momentum and put together a good staff.

That’s when I’ll start getting on board. I liked Harsin at the press conference
