We are spending tons of it on WRs to get open and Thorne to not see open or to block for him to run all next season.

Yes, they now have extra NIL money. They were offering KJ a lot.

He bails out of every play.. panics and tosses it to a RB in the flats or runs for his life.

It is when they’re trying to keep it on the down low. Ryan Day went openly running his mouth about Cam Ward, and he ran off McCord. Now, he has neither. You think Freeze blowing smoke up PT and Holden’s butts was by accident? Nope
There is coaches speak and then there is lying. I do not think Freeze would lie. freeze already said he is not hitting the portal because he did not want to run off what he had. His mind can obviously change....

Freeze might hit the portal if we don't have a offense next year with these WRs coming in start running off.

Auburn has not strongly pursued a quarterback in the transfer portal for that reason. Instead, Auburn put its emphasis on wide receivers and offensive linemen around Thorne. Freeze said he believes if Auburn brought in a quarterback from the portal, it might cause Thorne to transfer out.

Freeze also suggested that many transfer portal quarterbacks have found far more success in their second years at a new school compared to their first. Michael Penix was a Heisman finalist in his second year at Washington. Former Auburn quarterback Bo Nix joined Penix in New York City during his second year at Oregon.

Thorne may not develop into a Heisman finalist. But Freeze believes he can build an offense around him to succeed.

Listen to the video. He is talking to any fan that says "throw the bag at them"

Now post his exact quote. He said it had to be the right guy to risk losing what he had. Not ever has he said he was not looking for a portal QB.

I was joking because it was worded like Freeze was hitting the portal. But as for what Freeze said or didn't, he's a salesman and is working everyone at the same time. He's trying to convince the WRs to come in and believe in the system, keep Thorne's confidence up, and try to make the fans and supporters believe he is in full control of the situation. All while trying to do what he is really up to.

Freeze is trying to tip-toe around a lot of expectations and feelings and I dont envy him. I do believe he is being authentic when he is talking about believing in Payton though. Why? Because as soon as he says he believes in Payton he has to remind himself to say...and holden and so on.

Yep. And it was true. Nix did run everywhere.

I was not a nix hater or a Thorne hater I wish them all the best but Hank looks the part to sling it around as needed.

Since we’re still already on the hook for a roughly a $hit-ton-million-dollars from our previous coaching severance packages?…

Can we offer him a “Buy-Out” too?

It’d still be a BARGAIN compared to the scratch we’re already shelling out to coaches that aren’t doing jack-shite for us anymore either?

His exact quote:

quote:

quote: “I haven’t found a guy yet, and No. 1, if you go take one you’re probably going to lose Payton, Holden (Geriner),” Freeze said Saturday. “You better be right! I believe in Payton. I believe in Holden. I believe in Hank (Brown). I believe in the kid we’ve got coming (2024 QB commit Walker White). If I’m wrong, I’m wrong, but that’s my belief.”


Do you know what yet means? It means he’s been actively looking. And after today, his last give a damn about losing PT or Holden went right out the window.

Well before that quote he said whenever someone entered the portal someone kept coming to him telling him we should go "throw the bag" at him, so he is obviously paying attention. Next, if he hasn't found anybody yet, there are strong odds there is nobody. He has heard of Cam Ward right?

Secondly, Freeze made the point that nobody has set the world on fire in their first year after transferring, but the second year is when those transfers really blossom, inlcuding Penix. He said that was his expectation for Thorne.
