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:

This from the school that hired Urban Meyer. Think about this, Rebals, and fricking spin away

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.

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

Why do you have to create a new account to stir up Ole Miss people? Do it under your regular posting name!

Why did you choose a name associated with Alabama?

If I'm not mistaken, this Bianchi guy is the one who said FAU and Central Florida belonged in the SEC over Ole Miss and MSU

So the school that hired URBAN MEYER said "This guy is too amoral for our blood".

Holy shite

Although Foley never mentioned Freeze by name, it's quite clear now why the Ole Miss coach was never a candidate to coach the Gators.

LMAO... Florida and character issues. You also reference an article by Bianchi. He hates us along with the rest of the SEC.
