    Serious question

    Since most of you are probably a little more honest after a few drinks.

    Would you trade CML for Hugh Freeze today. Not wanting a freeze bashing, just a simple raise of the hands. ETA - I asked this in Q1 of the game thread as well.
    Disclaimer- I am not of the high status that C34 is - Cohen has not asked me to float this for him.

    I'm in.

    So would I rather win over the next 4 years with my program left in ruins with a known lying sociopath or stink for 2 years and then win at a pretty high level with no NCAA issues?

    NO. Just in principle. I can't condone his views as a Christian.

    How can you assume we're going to win at a high level?

    That's the opposite of what you said 3 hours ago...

    Me. And I do not condone our football coach standing up and saying that we won because God loves us more than the other team. Or that we got a recruit because God found favor with us. That's blasphemous and absurd. Unless you can show me scripture where Jesus mentioned football once in the Bible.

    I have a different take on him based on some things I know - but he made some big mistakes. But I 100% appreciate that you are a Christian and so am I. Thank God that it matters more than football.

    It's not even the hookers and cheating that I have as much a problem with. I don't like that about him either. But his views of Christianity are off or he's using it as a crutch in hopes that people will not suspect that he's doing half the other stuff that is un-Christian that he does.

    Yeah I get that. I have a competitor that uses it in his marketing and I don't like it because I know first hand that the guy is a sleaze ball. But from what I know of Hugh - he really is a Christian that got caught up in a lot of stuff he shouldn't have and was living a lie. He's asked for forgiveness and as a Christian I will give that to him for now.

    Absolutely NOT. Hugh Freeze is a sleaze ball and if we hired him, and I'm a second generation grad and my son is third generation, I'll find some other college and college athletic program to support.

    Hell no. There's a sleaziness line that we should never cross. I'd rehire Moorhead or Croom before I hired Freeze.
