No one has. I doubt they hire him, TBH. Just don't see them being able to justify him as the new face of Penn St.

I had forgotten all about that picture. I honestly don't think they'll hire him either NIH. I think the bullies will have him for a couple more years.

Good hire. Seems kind of like James Franklin. Ole Miss should be excited.

I still believe Pete Boone had something to do with this (behind closed doors) This was probably a hire that happened right after the firing of Nutt and we were just waiting on Freeze to finish to make the announcement. But once again, that is just my opinion.


Delusion at its finest. Pete Boone had nothing to do with this hire. It was all Archie.

I think your sentiment, deep down, is a result of the thought that the most connected and famous individual in your entire base could do no better than hire Hugh Freeze. It is embarrassing and indicative of exactly what the Ole Miss football program is...it is what Washington State is to the Pac12 and what Indiana is to the Big10.

With that being said, Freeze may prove to be a winner. However, a winner for Ole Miss would get you fired at Bama, LSU, UF and AU. If Freeze can win 7 games a year on average, I think he should be viewed as a brilliant hire.

One thing I know is Freeze has done at Ark State what nobody else has been able to do over 30 yrs. The fan base is pathetic with little support for athletics. If he can win here he can win anywhere. I'm not a prophet but I look for OM to be much improved.


Funny how you replace with Hud, and ULL,and this sentence would be accurate.

I'm not happy with this.

All Freeze will have to do, though, to change my mind, is win. Just win, baby.

understandable.




Rumor is he's done exactly what I've wanted him to do in offering Frank Wilson the OC job.

Does this mean Ole Miss thinks this coach can win the SEC?

If the fans think this, then they are way beyond delusional.

I still say that this hiring being the 4th head coach in 8 years at Ole Miss plus the fact that they don't have an AD seriously limited the search to only a few people who would consider it.

This is true. I don't think Sumlin and a few others were interested at all.


Leach was very much interested in the job though.

Which I'd much rather have him over Freeze. Jeez. And I hated the Mike Leach rumors.
