With the sh!t show going on what are the odds freezus coaches this year. After yesterday's news I got it at 50/50
I think he coaches this year but this will be it . Sanctions will drop in the fall or towards the end of the yearQuote:

This year 90% because I don't think the poop hits the fan until after the season starts and they won't fire him until they have to. They are all in this up to their ears and have decided to drive off the cliff together. The better poll would be if he will be coaching next year, I say 30 %.
Before about 10 days ago I would have said 99% to this upcoming season, but now I'm at about 60%. His facade is unraveling, and the media smells blood in the water. The more press the story gets, the more pressure will be put on the NCAA to make an announcement about sanctions. I highly doubt he will be the coach in 2017. I feel confident that they are on the fast track to once again winning the party, and that's all.
Here is the thing with me. He basically stated by asking for his depo.not to be used in the NCAA investigations that he is guilty. At some point it's gonna come to a head and the admin is going to step in to save face. They are toxic as long as he is the head man. Think about it, he basically admitted he cheated or knows whats been going on by the news yesterday. Now put that with the tweets, the statementa he has made about his program. Should another BIG story drop I don't see how he survives. That crew will turn on him in a second
I put Freeze coaching this year at about 40%. I put Bjork making it to the fall at about 10%.
I kind of get the feeling that ULL was a small tremor right before the big earthquake. NCAA is going to jump all over Ole Miss
99.9999999999999999999999999999%
100%. Why stop now?
On May 22nd the NOA has to be released. When that happens national media including TMZ will descend upon OM in a feeding frenzy because there is little other interesting sports news going on (because the NBA playoffs suck). The scrutiny Willie so intense that Bjork only has a 10% chance of surviving the summer and I only give Freeze a 30% chance. The problem will be finding a relatively "clean" coach to name as interim in that cess pool of a staff.
My thoughts as well. I would have to think that some staff have already been givin the walking paper'sQuote:

100% he coaches this year, the NCAA doesn't move that fast. After that all bets are off.
He's got about 3 days after the chancellor gives him a vote of confidence.
Anybody be me think its odd, that their has been zero comment from that office?
Be watching to see if he makes a trip to Haiti in a few weeks. If he does, he may mysteriously come down with a fever that he most certainly picked up in Haiti and will then step down for health reasons. The Haitian Fever could then spread throughout the department. People in Oxford will be tricked into wearing surgical masks around town like there is an avian flu pandemic or something.
In all seriousness, this year I think it depends on the war between how all-in he is and his conscience so I'm going to say 95% because I think he's already proven that he doesn't have much of a conscience. Next year it depends solely on NCAA findings because he would have proven that he is all-in and doesn't have a conscience by lasting until next year. I think there is about a 30% chance he's still there at the end of next season.
He coaches until the end of October. He will then either step aside for personal/family reasons to save face or he will be fired and an interim coach will be placed to finish out the season. I'm of the particular opinion that the chancellor may be negotiating with the NCAA behind Freeze's and Bdork's backs to throw them to the wolves to save the athletic department from an LOIC and severe, program crippling sanctions against football.
I think it all depends on what all is in the first NOA. Do yall think if there is not much damning evidence in the first NOA the national media will back off the story?
I think there is significant more info in the second letter or addendum but academic fraud as well as the earlier tunsil issues will be enough to get freezus out with the first letter. I think the admin will clean house to show the NCAA that they mean business so that in hopes the second NOA and COI will be more lenient to themQuote:

He coaches this Fall 100% UNLESS the NCAA somehow makes it clear that penalties would be SIGNIFICANTLY reduced by offering up Freeze as a sacrificial lamb. Given the UNM attitude during this whole thing though I'm not sure the NCAA is willing to give UNM ANY options at this point that would lessen their punishment.
I don't know whats going to happen, but he will 100% coach this year.....and probably 5 more years....I (unfortunately) know more UM info than MSU info due to my job.....I had dinner a few nights ago with a physician from NE MS that knows full well what is going on......I told him, IMO, that its going to be worse than what UM people think, and a whole lot less than what MSU fans (et al) want it to be....he never gives his side in too much detail, but replied to me "i can respect that".....then we went back to talking baseball....Quote:

I have personally even said that if UNM gets off with a slap on the wrist its time to throw out the NCAA rule book and just make it every man for himself. That would actually be more fair than the situation now where you have a group of schools at least attempting to follow the rules and another group of schools with institutionally embedded practices of cheating.Quote:

I don't think so. I think the draft night embarrassment has their attention. If they've reported at all on them, or investigated, they know there is more there than meets the original NOA.Quote:

I don't see how they could get away with it as much as they pissed off several big time programs that have a lot of influence. If they stuck to just buying off players from MSU then nothing is ever said. They would just claim it is MSU bitching about their rival but when Michigan and Georgia complain then it gets more attention.Quote:

Freeze will be the coach this Fall. There will be no discernible affects of the investigation this season.
He will definitely be the coach this year. They know what's in the NOA and would've already removed him if they thought that's what they had to do. You've already seen Texas fire a coach over this. Ole Miss hasn't fired a coach yet - so I don't expect them to. If/when an addendum/second NOA comes out, all bets are off.
100%. Now in 2017, that's a different question.
Then they would be admitting guilt, personally I don't think the initial investigation covers anything that would include Freeze. Its the ongoing one that will hang himQuote:

He is going to make the Japanese military on Iwo Jima look like mass surrender.
