Sickening. But, we finally see details of "the tape".
"Finally, at the end of ? recruitment, Coach Freeze was told by Farrar that family had
been offered cash payments by other schools. At the time, Coach Freeze did not know that the
conversation had been recorded. However, Coach Freeze believes he informed Compliance of
mother?s statement at that time; however, he is not certain, explaining that they often hear
?crazy things like that but very seldom have any kind of proof.? (FI No. 288, at 102).
Shortly after Signing Day, Coach Freeze learned of a Snapchat video of holding large
amounts of cash, apparently shopping for a new vehicle. He immediately forwarded the video to
Compliance and told them (either for the first or second time) about mother?s statement
because the video lent some validity to the story. Around the same time, Coach Freeze also learned
that Farrar had recorded his conversation with mother. Coach Freeze reported that fact to
Compliance as well. He followed up a couple of times with Compliance on these issues but was told
that the SEC office may not give them an update unless the issue involved the University.
Aside from his repeated communication with Compliance, this incident is noteworthy for Coach
Freeze?s monitoring of Farrar. When Farrar first told him of the conversation, Coach Freeze?s
immediate reaction was to ask what he had said in response. Coach Freeze was assured that Farrar
did not offer any money and warned ? mother that she should be careful about jeopardizing
? eligibility. When Coach Freeze learned that the conversation was recorded, he listened to
hear what Farrar had said. The recording matched Farrar?s representation. These actions only
served to reinforce Coach Freeze?s trust in Farrar and demonstrate his monitoring of Farrar and
recruitment.
It's actually pretty slick. In just a couple of paragraphs, they tattle that MSU and Alabama both offered Leo cash, then say he took it from MSU. He says he didn't believe it until Leo outed himself on snapchat, then he covers Ole Miss on the "recording recruits" accusation by stating that Barney did it and he didn't know about it. (Now Barney's gone so he can tell recruits they no longer have to worry about that). So - we are supposed to believe that the one and only tape that Barney ever made fully exonerates Freeze, Barney, and OM? LOL - yeeeeaaaaah. That wasn't orchestrated as a CYA after the fact, was it? That was a sting by the NCAA, if anything, Freeze. You're busted.
Also among the building himself up and tearing everyone around him down is this gem on, I suspect, Kobe:
In a February 2016 interview, signee alleged that during the
course of his recruitment he, and anyone with him, received free apparel from during
trips there on at least four occasions. According to , he was instructed to ask for an employee
named ?Emily? who would authorize him to receive roughly $500 worth of free apparel each visit.
s claimed that Barney Farrar provided that instruction. Specifically s described going to
s following his official visit along with all or a number of prospects on their official visit
that weekend and receiving free apparel at the same time.
s was a ?three star? prospect in the 2016 signing class; his official visit weekend was
January 29, 2016. Simply put, was not as highly regarded as many other players visiting that
weekend. For example, ?five star? prospect took his official visit that weekend.
was interviewed and asked whether he received free apparel from s.
who also signed with , denied ever receiving free apparel from . Indeed,
not one of the prospects on their official visit that weekend corroborates story.
Additionally, was very specific about asking for ?Emily.? Neither nor told a
similar method for receiving free apparel. In response to requests by the enforcement staff and the
University, the owner of reviewed years of employee information and confirmed that
the store has never employed anyone named Emily. On top of that, despite claim that he
received thousands of dollars in free apparel, not one witness?family or friend?said they saw
s get large amounts of University apparel, wear it, or knew what happened to any of the
merchandise he allegedly received.
So Kobe is just a 3-star not even worth Freeze's time and efforts (at cheating). But Freeze wanted to "help" him become a better person, because that's just the kind of guy he is (see final excerpt below). PUKE
And finally - Not sure if this is Leo or Kobe, but he had to just get in one more jab at whichever one it is:
First, the enforcement staff points to Coach Freeze?s statement that he had a suspicion or
?feeling? that was seeking impermissible inducements. What Coach Freeze said specifically
was that mentioned how he hoped his mom would be able to move to a new house and that
said he did not have a car to travel from to Oxford. Coach Freeze explained that
he had trouble connecting with because he believed acted like an entitled person. He
also explained that those ?feelings? were not a reason to stop recruiting s. Instead, Coach
Freeze?s hope was that bringing to the University would help him mature beyond that
73
attitude of entitlement. Officials from the Compliance Department have confirmed that ?feelings? or
?suspicions? like this one are not a reason to discontinue recruiting a prospect.
Stay classy Hugh. Oh, and enjoy your time off when you get that 8 year show cause that's surely coming!
