    Chris' dad wanted him at OM. OM was paying his dad a bunch of money. Thankfully, his mom wanted him at State because we were the first school to offer him and stayed on him, and we paid her a lot of money. You know for Freeze being such a great recruiter, he missed on a lot of kids because he never would try to win over the mother. And this was before the prostitutes thing, which again, WAS NOT FOR HIM. He was cheating on his wife, but it was with a hairdresser from Hernando. Not callgirls from Tampa.

    Didn't we have a recruit years ago visit Ole Miss with his mother and they sent the girl to the wrong room, instead of to the recruit's room?

    Yeah, had he not said they were for him, that would've been interstate trafficking of prostitution for minors...he would have been in the (non-white collar) popo...smart move on his part. I'm still not sure why the authorities didn't investigate that any further.

    The fact that two and two were never put together on that is still shocking. I still can't believe he fell on the sword for OM either. Hugh has always and will always be about Hugh. After they threw him under the bus, I fully expected him to come out swinging and throw EVERYONE under the bus.

    Not hard to figure out that Hugh gets a big recruit in Tampa and the escorts were hired at the same time. Also, didn't flight records show Hugh was in Oxford at the time also?

    He knew Ole Miss would swing back. See Houston Nutt.

    Everyone with half a brain knows that Freeze got fired by OM because of hookers for recruits and the liability on the school that situation set up. If the hookers were for Hugh himself he would still be there. Also, I'm sure CJ him loved him mostly because of all the booze, parties and tail Freeze was providing him during his frequent trips to Oxford.

    Houston Nutt is the reason Hugh was fired. Had OM not drug his name through the mud he would have never hired Tom Mars. His hiring of Tom Mars led to Mars and Steve Robertson striking up a friendship and him giving Steve some of the docs that led to the escort service phone number. I would've been deathly afraid of another coaching swinging back at me if I was OM. Freeze may could've landed the KO punch.

    Also, knowing some of the people that know Hugh very well, he also thought there was a chance all that would blow over in a couple of years and they would pivot back to Freeze.
