If freeze misses media days

[starkvegasdawg]

It'll be due to something other than not going. He'll blame it on a mechanical failure or sudden illness in the family. There will be some excuse other than he's a bald beaver.

[Pollodawg]

Freeze won't Miss Media days.

[Liverpooldawg]

He will be there.

Freeze won't Miss Media days.

He'll show up with laryngitis**

I know you guys don't like the CL. But Kellenburger lays it to ole missy today on the lawsuit. I won't bother trying to post the article, cause last time I did, it got deleted by one of the proctors.

[lamont]

Freeze won't miss. Baghdad Chuck will be hip-checking people out of the way to ask questions. When the lawsuit or the NCAA comes up, Freeze will just say he can't comment about on going cases

Kellenberger: Ole Miss has only itself to blame for the Houston Nutt lawsuit

How much will the NCAA process affect Ole Miss' season?



The Rebels already know they are going to have a bowl ban this season, but there's the threat of the NCAA verdict coming down mid-season and even coach Hugh Freeze being suspended. Hugh Kellenberger and Antonio Morales talk about what all of that is going to do to the Rebels. Wochit


Be scared of the man who has nothing to lose, because sometimes he’ll tell the world you’re a liar who gets mad when people criticize you … a day before you have to talk to more than a thousand media members.

It’s easy to laugh at Houston Nutt filing a lawsuit against Ole Miss Wednesday — the guy who got fired for winning only two games with half of his team on the verge of academic probation is upset he didn’t get another job? That's a rolling eye emoji + money sign text response if I've ever seen one.

But remember that Nutt was only 55 when he left Oxford in 2011. He had won a lot of games for a lot of years. He knew it didn’t work out at Ole Miss, but he said repeatedly on his way out the door that he still felt like he had a lot to give.

It’s been six years though, and Nutt has never worked in college football again. Pretty much any job he has ever been connected to has started with him publicly saying he wants the gig, and even that has happened less and less the last couple of years.

I can tell you that it seems to me the game just left Houston Nutt behind at some point. He wasn’t getting the right recruits, both in talent and discipline, and his schemes were old-fashioned, even just as the hurry-up, no huddle era of college football was really getting started. And college football as a whole, even on the lower levels, has decided it’s more worthwhile to take a chance on the 34-year-old offensive coordinator than the 55-year-old failed SEC head coach. Take the upside, sacrifice “winning the press conference.”

But is that the whole reason Nutt works as an analyst for CBS Sports Network? Is it maybe at least a little bit about Ole Miss making a key part of its defense against the NCAA investigation that it was all Nutt’s fault?

That’s what the lawsuit filed Wednesday in federal court in Oxford alleges, and there’s absolutely a case for defamation of character. Nutt’s name does not appear in the Notice of Allegations — either one. Hugh Freeze’s does. The vast majority of violations occurred after Freeze took control of the program, counter to Ole Miss’ claim for more than two years.

If this case ever went to court, that part is easy. Proving damages is harder, but is that even the game here?

Nutt clearly felt disrespected — he told as much to several outlets over the years — and reached a point where he had enough. Ole Miss thought it could place all the blame on him? Well, when you do that to a guy he sometimes has his lawyer file a lawsuit that says, “It is common knowledge among sports journalists that Coach Freeze does not take kindly to criticism” and claims you knowingly lied to sports journalists and prospects in order to have a good recruiting class. And he’ll do it a day before your head coach goes to SEC Media Days.


On Thursday, Freeze will have to take the podium in Hoover, Alabama amid another round of public ridicule for Ole Miss during this NCAA investigation. If it weren’t enough that Ole Miss missed a bowl game by getting blown out at home to its rival … if there wasn’t a coming NCAA judgment that threatens to level the program and cost Freeze his job … if an Ole Miss booster wasn’t also suing a pair of Mississippi State players … now you also have Nutt's lawyer putting some of Ole Miss’ business out on front street.

Be scared of the man who has nothing to lose, because sometimes he’ll find a way to get even.

What if Freeze gets deposed at media days?

[Spiderman]

Freeze won't miss. Baghdad Chuck will be hip-checking people out of the way to ask questions. When the lawsuit or the NCAA comes up, Freeze will just say he can't comment about on going cases

Yep, he might be a little sleepy looking because he will be in PR class until they leave for the show tomorrow

No way the ***** misses this. He will go in and either
1. Act like a righteous dick that is above the entire situation or
B. Go in like he has to work hard everyday to walk the path others has defined for him.

Note reference to big bro Buzz.

Yea shannon

[Dolphus Raymond]

This has the makings of a PR disaster that would rival Draft Night. I doubt Freeze shows up.

Big bible quote in the early morning tomorrow then an "aw shucks" routine at B'Ham in the afternoon.

I knew something would happen today with a negative slant to OM or Freeze, because he was quoting scripture this morning.

When he quotes anything biblical about adversity, bad news is coming, bet the house on it

[fader2103]

Isn't their repercussions from the league if a coach fails to show?

[Really Clark?]

Isn't their repercussions from the league if a coach fails to show?

They will be fined unless it is for a just cause, sickness, death in the family, etc. Fulmer did no show once because of attorneys hanging out to serve him for deposition and was fined. There is rumbling from radio row (Jacksonville radio station in Birmingham I believe) that he may be a no show tomorrow. I don't buy it yet though.

[Behrdawg]

He will Show and he will be passive of anything related to this lawsuit. He will do his best to dodge NCAA questions. It'll be boring. With that said- its highly likely this will be his last major public appearance as OM head coach.

[Bucky Dog]

Maybe he "resigns" in the morning to not be a distraction any long to this university that he loves!!

Remember Deontay Anderson's quote? Something like "The NCAA stuff doesn't bother me. I talked to coach freeze and he said it was all stuff that happened before he got there. I knew he wouldn't lie to me."

Just more proof Freeze is a snake.

Color me shocked that the CL actually published this. People have been High Freeze deniers since the beginning and finally the CL goes all truther.

In my opinion the fact that OM and Freeze defamed and slandered Houston Nutt is obvious. The only issue is whether and how much money it cost him. I suspect that OM will likely just settle and make this go away. If I'm HN (which I never would be) I demand a public apology from HF and the OM administration. That is the only thing that can truly make the situation right along with a boat load of cash.
