***BREAKING*** SOURCE: Top target is Hugh Freeze Part II

[oxrageous]

Continuation of this thread:

http://gatorchatter.com/forum/main-...ing-source-hugh-freeze-is-top-coaching-target

I got info recently from a source that I actually find more trustworthy than any of the others. I'm told Hugh Freeze is the top target of the coaching search and UF is preparing an offer that he hopefully cannot refuse. Trust me when I tell you this info is solid.

I do not know who any fallback candidates are at this time. However, I have also been told that Bob Stoops would be willing to make the jump if the money is right. It's all about the money.

Discuss.

I still think either Freeze or Stoops will do great here. One game doesn't determine anything

I've come to the conclusion that we often reject candidates just because we don't like the poster that suggests them.

There is a common thread for Freeze between both losses and the games that have had issues with. The same type of decissions that Muschamp was making the last two years. It apparently easier to coach at Florida and the expectations are not the same according to some people.

I like you Ox, I just don't like Freeze for UF.

No, the expectations are not the same, but it is easier to coach at Florida than Ole Miss. Better recruiting pool and an easier schedule.

I just think today illustrates how much QB play can effect ones opinion of the HC. Many like to bang on Muschamp for his run first persona. But the truth is a wide variety of offenses are effective with an efficient QB that takes care of the ball and can convert 3rd downs. We haven't had that since Tebow. That is the reason we have coaching threads.

Easier schedule? Sure, the last couple of years the East has been down...but historically it's not an easy schedule.

I think we have a couple of young talented qbs one of em is going to make the next coach look good imo

You can't use the easier schedule argument when most seasons we are considered to having one of the hardest schedules in the Nation every year. Which division is more dominate is cyclical. Alabama is consistantly great, LSU is consistantly good, Auburn is hit or miss the last decade, TAM has been good for the 3 years they have been in, Arkansas is just getting back off its ass, and two Mississippi Schools. Vanderbilt, Kentucky and Tennesse our are divisions Mississippi Schools and Arkansas. Georgia, Missouri, and USCe have been our consistently above average to good. We are supposed to be Alabama of our division. That is the only real difference the last 5 years, the East is missing their jaugernaut due to poor coaching and roster management.

Gundy? Call it T.

I like Freeze, if we fail on a ton of other fronts. So we'd have to fail with: Kelly, Harbaugh, Patterson, Briles, McElwain, Stoops, Carroll, Petrino, and Franklin.

Yes, I know that there are 3 NFL coaches in that list. But from anybody with any type of sales background, you're never going to sell anybody if you don't call on them.

Carrol coming to UF? Man I wish

 

[oxrageous]

Keep this thread about Freeze. You can fantasize about other coaches in the other thread. Pete Carroll?

If you're a telemarketer I'm done with you

He is a 1-900 type of guy

He is a 1-900 type of guy

I can totally see that

 

[JohnCoctostan]

I'm not that high on Freeze. It seems like he has been pretty good for Ole Miss but doesn't have a sustained record of winning.

In short, we could do worse but we could also do better.
