True, but I haven't heard of the KKK rallying on any other campus in the SEC. Mississippi isn't the only state where the KKK is prominent and Oxford isn't the only city where they reside. I would be willing to bet that any other school would find a way to get that shite shut down in a heart beat.

If they decided to go through the process of setting up a rally at Alabama or Auburn or LSU then they would have a rally at those places. They would be given a spot to stand in, be roped off and would do whatever they wanted to do.

They came from Alabama anyway arse hole.

Which further goes to my point They knew they couldn't pull that shite off on Auburn or Bama's campus. BTW, isn't University property considered private?

I think he has done a great job of recruiting talent. His philosophey works. The only downside I see is that if he continues to have highly rated players throw their lives and careers away once they are on campus , the mommas will revolt against him. You don't want the mommas/parents worried that you will not keep any eye on their boys and care enough about them to nip problems early.

dude the Klan will hold a rally whenever and wherever something happens they want to protest. At Ole Miss it was over Dixie and Colonel Reb. They had a rally in downtown Memphis when they were attempting to rename Confederate Park and move Nathan Bedford Forrest's grave. The had a rally at the South Carolina state capitol last year when the state chose to remove the confederate flag from state grounds following the Charleston shooting. As much as I like to bag on Ole Miss and thought it was funny there was a Klan rally, the Klan rally was in response to something Ole Miss was doing in favor of race relations.

a state school nor the local government has no constitutional power to do so.

Freeze is a good recruiter. What else can you say? I think any other advantage Ole Miss has can be found at many other SEC programs. Freeze is the difference.

Freeze is an excellent recruiter but some of his game management skills aren't particularly good. No, I'm not poking fun at him or anything. If you read some of the game threads you'll find a ton of Ole Miss fans bringing up exactly that point.

Every coach makes bone head calls from time to time, its the nature of the game after all. Its bound to happen. Freeze seems to make more of them then most high level coaches.

That having been said, if he gets better at in game management and can cut down on some of discipline problems that Ole Miss has (before the NCAA steps in) then Ole Miss has a shot at competing for a national title with his recruiting.

Not a lot of teams can say they have a legit shot at a Natty. He's really accomplished a lot at Ole Miss to put them in that position.

Freeze has done a great job in recruiting, regardless of the method & his offensive philosophy works as well. However, to think that the family like atmosphere is his creation, that his program is the only one like that is silly. Coach Miles has been having the coaches' families, kids and all, come to the practice field on Halloween for well over 9 yrs now. He springs for the candy used in the trick or treating out of his own pocket. An the spring, he's allowed coaches to allow their kids the run of the practice facility 2-3 times a spring. But with regards to Patterson's reason for going to O.Miss? Really? Go talk to anyone up at Ariz. State...or UA, forget which....where he came from & ask their opinions of his father, brother, his own actions. Same "problems" at LSU. His brother was actually kicked out of an LSU facility. And yet, he's having no "problems" at O.Miss? One does wonder.

Freeze is a great talent evaluator and talent developer and that is what gets overlooked more than any stars that he has signed. That first class might've been in the 40s but there were several lonely righted players that ended up making all conference or even All-American. That first class might've been in the 40s but there were several lonely righted players that ended up making all conference or even all American Players like Trae Elston Cody core Isaac Gross Mike Hilton Bo Wallace John Youngblood Jalen Walton and Channing ward all contributed a lot to the success although some of them are rated two and three stars. Cody core is actually from Auburn Alabama and did not get any interest from Auburn he had a solid career and did get invited to the NFL combine

Not this KKK crap again. Old and worn out. It's like people are trying to convince themselves if they say it enough that recruits will pay attention.


It's not happening... let it go.
