SOURCE: Hugh Freeze is top coaching target Part III

[Swamp Donkey]

This might be the worst argument I've ever seen. Congrats

Blockhead's shtick was old weeks ago.

Guys, I get it. You don't like Freeze. We can argue all week long and no one's opinion is going to change. Like many of us have said, he's certainly not our top choice but we'd support the hire as we would with anyone else. How fuggin hard is that to understand?

It's the arguments like proping up what he did at Ole Miss like no one has done it before there. It's the hypocriscy of some people who used to say you can't blame Meyer for parts of Muschamps record then continuing to point out the season before Freeze took over. It's the double standards we are seeing in these posts where everyone is looking at him as a young offensive mind, but people are forgetting how do to his philosophy or his recruiting he has a one dimensional offense, which honestly we have seen the last 4 years. Arkansas's players said in pregame interviews last week, they didn't have to worry about the run. Just like our opponents didn't have to worry about the pass. I don't follow recruiting other than the final standings, but those so far outside of one year haven't been that out of sync with Ole Miss for the last 15. His game management in close games is as questionable the coach we just got rid of. Some of us are just pointing out red flags, that other seem to want to gloss over and then when facts are point out the responses are generalities instead actual statements to defend.

What makes it so much worse is that the playoffs and tv contracts kicked off right when we were plunging. What to speak of the fact that the money advantage that we used to have to lure coaches has completely gone away.Al it takes now is one billionaire booster to get a $4MM coach at a tiny school that nobody has heard of. Luckily we are still in the SEC so we still have that going for us.

My view of this is that I really hope Freeze can make this work. Two bad hires in a row, then we will be Tennessee, who used to be big back in the day, but nobody ever talks about them now.

Freeze will be an upgrade regardless. My fear is we have seen the best of his ingame management. If that is the case, we will be in the Zook years again, or the 80's where we are continuing to say next year. Money is still a factor as the fact that as an Athletic Association we are one of only 8-10 university who annually make a profit. But the money is becoming more normalized.

Yeah, but he's 2-13 in the SEC. Cross him off the list.

Whose team would you rather take into next season, Freeze's or Bielema's?

Freeze. And it's not close.

I'm not sure how many teams could survive period in the SEC West. Ole Miss is on a bit of a tailspin, but that all changes if it beats Miss State tomorrow, in which case the Freeze bandwagon is back in full sail.

Jumping on the Pinkel bandwagon before it gets too crowded :)

Maybe the Arkansas coach over Freeze talk will slow down now. Its great Georgia is left out also.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Oops. Bielema bandwagon gets a flat. He sucks and should be fired if we hired him already.

Yep. Same with Mora. Can't lose a game near hiring time.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Yup cant lose in week 14. Its in the rules.

That is the best part, UGA is denied :)

Of course,now I get to hear it again from my Big 10/Big 12 coworkers about how one of "theirs" comes into the vaunted SEC and wins the East 2 yrs in a row....

While Mizzou has done well since joining, they've benefited greatly by our suckage, UT being a dumpster fire and the Dwags being the Dwags.

 

[DeltaGlamma]

Totally agree MJM, but it is hard to tell those who are jealous of the SEC - they can't see reality, just their hattred of the SEC dominance.

 

[lagator]

Freeze. And it's not close.

Really? ARK doesn't have many seniors on either side and already look a helluva lot tougher. I think I'd take Arkansas's.

There should have been none of the talk to begin with, Beliema fits Arkansas mentality much better than he fits ours. And it's always a good day when Georgia gets screwed.

UT is been a cluster**** for a while, taking the place of what USCe used to be. Dawgs are alwasys going be the dawns a 9-3 to 10-2 team that will find a way to just not do enough. The shift in power is just the loss of us in our natural position. One day Tennesse will be decent again and Spurrier will retire and return to being a middling club.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Marrying a stripper or banging a volleyball players usually results in one getting elected governor in Arky, but I dont think Bielema will take the pay cut.

 

[Gator Fever]

Yep. Same with Mora. Can't lose a game near hiring time.

Same with Graham and Holliday also.

Brett beliema lost today, he ain't nothing but white trash - concrete helmet
