Bo Bounds Say, "Freeze Has Been Given An Ultimatum" Akers Or Else

[ShotgunDawg]

It looks like Ole Miss has officially made Akers their Alamo to save face. This entire episode reminds me of when the Texas Rangers signed Alex Rodriguez to a 10 year $252 Million dollar when the Rangers had little chance of winning.

Bo says Akers wants to go to FSU, but Ole Miss is making it where he may not be able to.

Just not sure how much of a difference a RB makes. A raw running back at that.

I'd much rather take the JUCO guys we signed yesterday over 1 Cam Akers.

What they have to do to save face I guess

[MetEdDawg]

They had to give him the ultimatum. They have no one else on staff left to give it to.

[starkvegasdawg]

I guess that's why Freeze just bought this book at Barnes and Noble.

If they sign Akers, the NCAA will come down on them with some old school vengeance. OM beating out FSU/LSU/ et al for a kid like Akers - even an in-state kid - will smack of major violations. And you know they are watching them like a hawk right now.

Ole Danny Hugh is between a rock and a hard place on this one.

Gonna be Makin' it Rain in Clinton!

[Commercecomet24]

My question on this though, is "Akers or else" what? I mean what are they gonna do to him. He knows where the skeletons are buried and buried deep. It seems they both have each other over a barrel. I think its hilarious watching bucky burn and the plantation with him!

[defiantdog]

I like Bo, but he's wrong here. Freeze is only out if the NCAA forces it. And getting Akers has nothing to do with Freeze and everything to do with boosters.

[Cooterpoot]

Hugh's more into catfishing these days.

How can OM keep Cam from going to FSU?

Explain to me this, "but OM is making it where he may not be able to". Yea I figure money and mama but what else?

[ShotgunDawg]

How can OM keep Cam from going to FSU?

Money & they'll have Judd Boswell & half the Clinton athletic department hired before giving up on him.

They'll create a situation where Cam would be letting down many people around him by not going to OM.

Look at it like an arranged marriage. The woman doesn't want to marry the man, but, if by marrying the man, her father the King of Crootland, acquires & becomes the ruler of Cheatsylvania

[HSVDawg]

Agreed. They aren't going to fire him at this stage of the game no matter what. He would have been out after the Egg if it was even being considered.

[PassInterference]

Akers or else is a convenient narrative for when 1) Akers goes to FSU, and 2) the NCAA is telling them Freeze will have to go.

Attention future Ole Miss coaches, sign the next generational player out of MS or be fired!

If Freeze starts to lose games they will fire him and turn on him. Ask Houston Nutt. But they aren't going to want to use the NCAA investigation as a reason because they are trying to talk about it as little as possible so something cockamamie like not getting Akers is a reason in their minds to justify firing him.

[ShotgunDawg]

I gotta say, I knew their program would be ravaged by sanctions, but I had no clue they'd destroy themselves before the sanctions even came down. This program may be a post-apocalypse wasteland in about 3 years

[Saltydog]

those prize fish he's always showing and edit it with a guppy or a minnow. That would be indicative of their signing class yesterday.

Start to lose? That 55-20 chap some Bear's asses. I also think he has already started to lose some of his Armour with the fans. Once the NCAA come down on them he will lose all his armour. They are going to turn on him like Judas did Jesus.

I was trying to figure out the "why" of this ultimatum. This makes sense to me and explains it I'm guessing.

[KB21]

What's sad is that I heard Judd Boswell on Head to Head yesterday, and one comment he made was that his task to help Cam in the recruiting process is to keep "the wolves" away from him...........yet he doesn't let Mississippi State talk to the kid while he is getting buddy buddy with the Ole Miss people.

[Martianlander]

Freeze has to have enough on Bjork to get him canned too. Don't understand that situation, and how Bjork keeps surviving.

I think people are making more out that than is really there. Not trying to argue with you or anything, but I know Boswell isn't keeping MSU from recruiting his players. Those players just didn't return interest in us.

I think that's a pretty good hypothesis with that bunch. I am so loving watching that whole bunch squirm and shake!

I personally think Freeze has coached his last SEC game.

This is interesting because virtually every Clinton player in the history of the program has showed MSU interest till now

[bulldog2488]

I agree with you, but the only player we really wanted from CHS was Cam Akers. He just didn't return the interest. I'm telling you there is no conspiracy theory here with Boswell.

[Brahmabull]

That's bull. Our coaches can't get in the door at Clinton now. Kam White was once going to State and is now going to Iowa St. We didn't pull his offer. Now Akers never had any interest in us so I will give you that, but the rumors of us and Clinton coaching staff are true.

[Bothrops]

What a joke that program is. It's all about buying a 5 star, just so they can say they have a 5*. That place deserves to be completely exposed for what they are.

[TUSK]

I guess that's why Freeze just bought this book at Barnes and Noble.

I'm going to disagree with you here. The MSU staff cooled on Kam White and I think he decided to go somewhere with a solid offer. I'm not saying Akers isn't being pushed to Ole Miss by people in Clinton, but its not by the coaching staff.

[starkvegasdawg]

My apologies. I thought if this were in AL there would have been a bottle of Jack Daniels in the boat and an A on the hat and since I didn't see that in the illustration I thought I was safe.

[RougeDawg]

What a joke that program is. It's all about buying a 5 star, just so they can say they have a 5*. That place deserves to be completely exposed for what they are.

Buying those 5*'s sure has provided that university a hell of a lot of free publicity and press these last 3-4 years. The national perception of that program has been altered in the last few years. Don't kid yourselves. They are much more of a national brand after that 13 class than they ever were. ESPN has linked and promoted them almost as much as the Bamas of the world. Yes it ridiculous, false and unwarranted, but most times perception is reality. One can only hope the NCAA hammer is covered as much as that signing class so people get the entire truth.

[TUSK]

5 "My Dark Lords" and 10 "Rammer Jammers"... go, and sin no more...

[smootness]

Shouldn't it be 'Akers and/or else'?

I mean, it's happening no matter what Akers does.

[Tbonewannabe]

Freeze checks too many boxes for what they need in a head coach. He is a "preacher", he is a decent coach and motivator, and he is "All In" with the boosters running recruiting. Not many head coaches would have a recruit in a hotel room and bring in a booster to make the close while he leaves the room. Not many good head coaches are going to risk their career like that.

After the NCAA gets done, signing dak may not save his job.

[Bully13]

After the NCAA gets done , Akers won't be enough. Not even getting Fitz to transfer

[TUSK]

Guys, if this case with the NCAA goes the way it's leaning, it'd take MDL 5-7 years to get it competitive, again...

Yall need to be thinking in terms of "decades", not "players" or "years"...

You hearing rumors of what the sanctions may end up being in the end?

[TUSK]

You hearing rumors of what the sanctions may end up being in the end?

NO. But if they are only 75% of the estimates I've read, it'll be enough to destroy an OM type program for a very, very long time...

A 2 year death penalty would be more humane than a 4/30 type situation...

[TrapGame]

So, as RP put out yesterday that Akers didn't like Longo for OC, if now hiring him has put the nail in the coffin on more than one level?

[bulldog2488]

So, as RP put out yesterday that Akers didn't like Longo for OC, if now hiring him has put the nail in the coffin on more than one level?

Why doesn't he like that hire? I'm asking because I honestly know nothing about Longo. What type of offense does he run?

[TrapGame]

Why doesn't he like that hire? I'm asking because I honestly know nothing about Longo. What type of offense does he run?

I'm not sure. RP will have to fill that part in. I think Akers was told they were getting someone else as OC and then it became a slight bait and switch situation. Akers got wise to it.

[bulldog2488]

Got cha. Well I hope he goes anywhere but Ole Miss. I'd like to see him go to FSU that way I can root for him.

[maroonmania]

I gotta say, I knew their program would be ravaged by sanctions, but I had no clue they'd destroy themselves before the sanctions even came down. This program may be a post-apocalypse wasteland in about 3 years

I'm starting to think these Ole Miss morons are going to just see what they can do to force the NCAA into giving them the death penalty. Why else would you be throwing bank at one recruit when you are on the verge on receiving one of the harshest NCAA probations ever?

[Spiderman]

I like Bo, but he's wrong here. Freeze is only out if the NCAA forces it. And getting Akers has nothing to do with Freeze and everything to do with boosters.

Yep

You are right in that's how I think it ultimately ends up. But from Ole Miss's point of view they want to make this look like MSU is to one behind all of this and bringing them down if at all possible and they are going to try to deflect things from Freeze because if/when the truth comes out it's going to be their fault. But they will have a lot of alumni upset if it gets out like that. Which it could.

[Todd4State]

I personally think Freeze has coached his last SEC game.

You're probably right. But was he named on the original NOA? If he wasn't that and the fact that Freeze is the ringleader of their Network are the only reasons why I think he might come back. Even if he does come back somehow it's inevitable that the NCAA is going to have him fired by the time the second NOA comes out. I might be mistaken about Freeze and the first NOA though. If I am then the part about their network applies.

Freeze was named in 1st NOA with a level 1 infraction

[Schultzy]

The Head Coach in home visit with a booster present is the level 1 that they admitted to in their official response. If he doesn't get a Show then you can't get one.

[coastdoglover]

I respectfully disagree Todd, They save a ton of money if he is implicated by the NCAA because they will not have to buy him out under most contracts for coaches. Other words, Freeze is toast

[archdog]

Might as well ask for an extension and a 8 million salary.

Due, not do. Not a bad diddy and I like old Billy Joel. Agree on the harshness and recovery time, he's getting a show cause but strangely I don't think they'll fire him.

Yes we are delusional and obsessed with them. There is no need to come to this site to get any info on recruiting . Gay will sign with Umiss. Mcgriff is the best hire made since Bama hired Saban. It's all about them. We are the little brother. We are rednecks . Cow college .

Here's some good State material on this recruiting class:

Man, we are cleaning up now that it's a level playing field and the NCAA has the Rebel hands tied. When the NCAA is done with them, we are going to get our pick of the state for the next decade.
