'd put Petrino and Art Briles in the same category. The crimes committed by them were worse than Freeze's
Petrino had an affair, Art Briles brought in then sheltered guys who sexually assaulted women. Having an affair is wrong, but I would say coordinating female companionship for 17YO high school recruits is worse

I think Hugh Freeze wins this contest. Nobody outside (possibly) OM admin saw this coming.
There have been a ton of people who have said that Freeze seems disingenuous about his faith / morals
Everyone assumed they were paying players too. That's been talked about since he first got there

If Petrino had simply been caught having an affair he'd still be HC at Arkansas. But that's not what he did. If you're saying Briles' crimes were worse than both, I agree. (Throw in Dave Bliss, too, if we want to look outside football.) But the BU disaster wasn't a shocker to most. Everyone has at least suspected Freeze of cheating since OM started pulling in top 5 recruiting classes, but I think very few expected this scandal. Add his religion-on-his-sleeve shtick, and it's priceless. That's why I think he wins this "contest".
