    Auburn students aren?t happy, either.

    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.

    Exactly, Freeze will win big at Auburn. He already has a Qb that fits his offense as well.

    With Tim Cook's money, this is the best Auburn can do?

    Not Kyle Shanahan? Matt Lefleur? Or at Least fly-In Sean McVay

    In my spectrum of coaches Freeze is about like hiring Les Miles or Houston Nutt.

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

    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.

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

    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!

    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.

    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.
