Best Recruiting Job This Year - Malzahn or Freeze

Freeze certainly has the better class, but I find it remarkable what Malzahn and staff were able to do in such a short period of time and after the disaster of a season AU had.
We didn't just change HC we completely cleaned house and still landed around a top 10 class and addressed most areas of immediate need.
Not sure who did the better job, but I am completely surprised at how well AU did this season.
Saban, Miles and Sumlin were obviously excellent as well, but they had advantages Freeze and Malzahn didn't have.

Freeze. That class is bananas.

Best? Freeze, due to overall quality.
Most impressive? Malzhan, due to time constraints and changes-in-staff that impacted his ability to recruit.

Dark horse: Mark Stoops
We were in the 60-70 range before he showed up.

Tough call. Freeze has had the benefit of being on the job longer and having his best recruit's brother on campus for a year. Malzahn and staff have been there less than 2 full months. I think Ole Miss ends with the better class (at least at the top), but AU's staff has done better - if that makes sense.

Agreed

Did Auburn fire their boosters too?

Auburn having a national championship is still pretty fresh on everyone's mind. Come to Auburn and get a National Championship. Ole Miss is a bit of a harder sell since it just came off the worst season in its history. I'm going with Freeze, but Malzahn has had a great class as well.

Yes.
But we just reload.

Freeze has done something unprecedented for Ole Miss. They're recruiting like they're USC or Texas.
Malzahn was very impressive on closing the deal. If I was an Auburn fan I'd give him grade A for recruiting.

Freeze. Though Auburn picked up some good ones, they lost the two biggest recruits they had in Foster and Liner. Spin that however you want, but it has to hurt.

It's not quite the same though when you are reloading a BB gun.

Freeze and it's not even close. Not because I'm trying to insult Auburn, but the opposite. Malzahn can sit in somebody's living room and say Auburn won a national title when he was there, and he was a big reason. Freeze is selling an idea that hasn't been proven yet at Ole Miss.
