I honestly am shocked. I didn't think he'd be back in the SEC. They'll be a Top 5 program within 3 years. Probably the absolute best hire they could possibly make. Scum of the earth, shitty person, but probably one of the best coaches when he can cheat and lord knows Auburn can cheat with the best of them.

Going to be interesting to see how the fan base reacts to Freeze being hired. I had posted in another thread, if Freeze is hired then we will know Auburn doesn't care about a split fan base. This could really turn into a circus, or maybe all will be well. But........I vote get the popcorn. Some said if he hadn't beaten Bama when he was at OM, he wouldn't have been on the list. If this doesn't work out Cohen will get the blame for it.

Guess I'm one of the few that doesn't think this is going to work out well for them.

On the field, it's going to work well for them, at least until their boosters decide to booster. Freeze is a good coach. But he still has his wtf losses. If Auburn boosters accept that, they're about to have a good run. That good run may end up being derailed by Freeze doing something so illegal that Auburn can't risk covering for him, but they'll have some good season until then. The question is if he goes 9-3 a couple of years losing to two good teams and a headscratcher along with winning a game they shouldn't, are the boosters going to try to undermine him? Cause I don't think he's going 11-1 consistently.

Both schools may have gotten what they deserve, OM having to pay way above market value to keep Kiffin, and a split fan base on an Auburn Freeze hire. It's pretty certain that the SEC Office will be watching Auburn more closely now too.

This is not a good hire. But it is all they could do. They made it a two-man horse race thinking they'd get their prize stallion in Kiffin. When that bombed, there's no way they could save face if they did not hire Freeze.

Auburn is the best on the planet for 17n up the coaching hire process, the resultant hires and the contracts.

But in the end they lost out on the self-absorbed grown child with clown shoes and hired Pee Wee Herman. As someone said, they both got what they deserved.

Yep. And that AU split fan base is bad. I've got two Auburn cousins, one was a player under Bowden, and they are livid. People will be out for blood against Freeze and they know it. All it will do is continue to distract the program and they think they will be back hiring again in 2 years.

What I had heard was that after all the fan base resentment that the athletic department had received through emails. etc. to a Freeze hire, and on social media too, they were probably going to back off on Freeze, and moving on to other candidates. I guess the "Big Booster" decided otherwise. I can't guarantee this to be 100% accurate but I think it's pretty close.

I?m a little confused on why any of you guys think that hiring Freeze is bad for Auburn. The guy can coach, yes he did some unethical shit at OM. He can coach and he will recruit well with AU brand and their NIL.

Cohen didn?t make this hire, but if he did, it?s bc he knows that Freeze can be successful plus there?s been plenty of time for things to settle down. Shit, AU hired Pearl and he?s dirty as hell too. I would hire Freeze if Leach didn?t pan out. It?s a good hire, plus it will be interesting when AU plays OM & aTm (Bjork).

Hell, we?ve hired worse, bc we?re too cheap or scared to take a chance with someone who has baggage, thus Felker, Croom, & Moorehead, and as far as I?m concerned Leach.

He's not bad for Auburn for his coaching ability, but at some point morality for most people trumps winning football games, or at least I'd hope so. Now the more you win, the more grace you get from the public, case and point Hugh Freeze. But when it comes to Hugh there's been countless sex scandals everywhere he's been. He can't handle criticism based on his consistent searching and replies to folks on social media. The man sure has a lot of negative news headlines for a guy that parades his faith.

I hope we never hire him here. There's no way I could be proud to have a man of his character be the leader of the MSU football team. How can you support a man like that? How can you say I want a man like that to help 18-22 year old boys mature to men? Because he wins football games? Give me a break. There's plenty of other coaches who can win football games without his issues. He's one news headline away from creating a firestorm for Auburn.

Exactly. I'd be done with our program.
It's not just the years of hookers and affairs, but do you know what kind of evil you have to be to do that to your wife and daughters (and the escorts) while TWEETING BIBLE VERSUS DAILY?

Then you have all the briarcrest stuff. If I were that 14 year old girls dad I would have ended him.

We also have the multiple DMs to a sexual assault survivor at Liberty telling her she is wrong about the AD because he is "Jesus like." You know, the same AD who was found culpable by the DOJ and an independent investigation for his role in the cover up of gang rapes at Baylor!

It's hard for men to see it because we're men. But every female auburn fan knows Cohen just hired a guy who has belittled, manipulated, and disrespected women for 25 years.

The biggest thing that would worry me if I was an Auburn fan is the fact that once he beats Alabama they'll go nuclear and unleash a scandal that would be similar to Penn State and Baylor. Heck- they already did when Freeze was at Ole Miss and beat them.

This isn't like when we hired Jackie. Freeze has a lot of things that have been kept quiet for years that could sink him at basically any time. He's a ticking time bomb.

So, basically Auburn has in my mind hung themselves out to dry. Because he's either going to be successful and nuke the program or he isn't going to pan out because the playing field is a lot more level with NIL and the portal. Very risky hire to try to have a good season or two.

Now the more you win, the more grace you get from the public, case and point Hugh Freeze. But when it comes to Hugh there's been countless sex scandals everywhere he's been. He can't handle criticism based on his consistent searching and replies to folks on social media. The man sure has a lot of negative news headlines for a guy that parades his faith.

I hope we never hire him here. There's no way I could be proud to have a man of his character be the leader of the MSU football team. How can you support a man like that? How can you say I want a man like that to help 18-22 year old boys mature to men? Because he wins football games? Give me a break. There's plenty of other coaches who can win football games without his issues. He's one news headline away from creating a firestorm for Auburn.

Probably don't have to worry about Hugh Freeze ever being a Bulldog. Especially with Steve Robertson around. Talk about awkward.

The biggest thing that would worry me if I was an Auburn fan is the fact that once he beats Alabama they'll go nuclear and unleash a scandal that would be similar to Penn State and Baylor. Heck- they already did when Freeze was at Ole Miss and beat them.

This isn't like when we hired Jackie. Freeze has a lot of things that have been kept quiet for years that could sink him at basically any time. He's a ticking time bomb.

So, basically Auburn has in my mind hung themselves out to dry. Because he's either going to be successful and nuke the program or he isn't going to pan out because the playing field is a lot more level with NIL and the portal. Very risky hire to try to have a good season or two.

I?m a little confused on why any of you guys think that hiring Freeze is bad for Auburn. The guy can coach, yes he did some unethical shit at OM. He can coach and he will recruit well with AU brand and their NIL.

Cohen didn?t make this hire, but if he did, it?s bc he knows that Freeze can be successful plus there?s been plenty of time for things to settle down. Shit, AU hired Pearl and he?s dirty as hell too. I would hire Freeze if Leach didn?t pan out. It?s a good hire, plus it will be interesting when AU plays OM & aTm (Bjork).

Hell, we?ve hired worse, bc we?re too cheap or scared to take a chance with someone who has baggage, thus Felker, Croom, & Moorehead, and as far as I?m concerned Leach.


If the things he did at OM were all he'd done then MAYBE. But there's a whole new batch of stuff that shows he didn't learn his lesson.

Reading some of the Auburn mental/theological gymnastics is kind of shocking.

Heard this morning that Freeze has to get permission to post on social media at Auburn. Sounds like Cohen is more of a prison warden than an AD.

Sounds like a great idea. Put safeguards in place to protect the university and the athletic dept as well from any legal repercussions.

I think they going further than that. Sounds like he has to give total control of his social media.

Are you speaking of the inappropriate text messages to a graduate of Liberty? It?s definitely a concern if it?s true to say the least. If so, you better hope the inappropriate text messages to female students from certain student athletes don?t go public.

The world we live in is a shit show, and there?s a LOT of things that happen?..lots get swept under the rug or overlooked especially in sports all for the sake of winning. It happens EVERYWHERE?.including MSU. Welcome to the freak show!

There is something called Reputation Risk. It can stain a University. AU didn't have to go this route.

Exactly, Freeze will be Freeze and will lie like there is no tomorrow in coming days, it's who he is. But too each their own.

I'm going to file this one under things that will eventually end poorly.

Cadillac will get more experience, ( probably some things he would rather not see!). He is in place to be named next HC to clean up the program when Freeze gets fired in disgrace. As for AU, having Pearl and now Freeze says it all.

If we have coaches in the DMs of sexual assault victims like Freeze had I hope it comes out and is made public

Are you saying what students say to each other, and what administrators in a position of authority do or say is comparable ?
