Buyers remorse for Freeze?

[Tidewater]

I think Goodman and Cohen are desperately trying to be the next Finebaum without doing the groundwork.

Most Auburn fans I know fall into one of 2 categories right now… The never Freezers and the “give him 2-3 years” crowd. Nothing about last night really changed anything

I think it is still early days.
Let him get his players in place, coach them they was he likes, and then look at the results on the field.
Since I despise the Barn, and they are suggesting they should fire Freeze now, I say, "Go ahead. Please."

Freeze was 7-6, 8-5, 9-4, 10-3, 5-7 with a 19-21 SEC record at Ole Miss. I’ve asked before, and I will ask again. What did the barners expect? He gets a lot of credit for beating Nick Saban, wins that a comedy of errors by Bama helped both times . He lost at least 3 games every year at a P5 school. Average to slightly above average coach if you ask me.

He was hired because he beat Saban twice and doesn't mind breaking a few rules to win games.

Everyone knows why Freeze was hired. And everyone should have known that the tools he used to gain an edge at Ole Miss have been taken away.

Well….all except the one he was fired for. NIL didn’t fix the, uh, “female companion” issue for recruits.

 

[CullmanTide]

From my recollection he wasn’t thrilled about Auburn hiring him

That's true. He has daughters there IIRC.

Could not believe the AU "highlight" during their game...showed HF playing with his grandchild. Does AU really think we are that stupid as to not realize what they are doing? Come on...

Yep, in full spin mode rehabbing his image. He has to fit that Auburn narrative. Fambly

NIL just gave them their own source of money. But it does that for anyone now, so. No more edge.

AU is Historically an 8-5 team on average so he fits right in on the plains.

I can see CHF turning it around. With that being said I don’t think he makes it there 10 years

It was worse with Tesstitore and Palmer at the mic! Joe and Jesse are the kings of hyperbole.

As I said earlier in this thread, it’s not coaching that will get him . It’s Hugh Freeze that will get Hugh Freeze, just can’t help himself.

Which group is audub in?🤔

his avatar is currently an artistic rendition of a bama helmet

Agreed ,

If there’s remorse it’s for the quarterback from Michigan State.

He will be a thorn using his shtick to rile up in state kids who spurn Alabama, or who aren’t offered.

His only success against Alabama was early hurry up before Saban adapted a little and the officials started watching for substitutions and illegal downfield. He didn’t have much success against any other high profile programs.

He didn’t beat Georgia this year, so TTGP (Turf Toes Groin Pulls), for all of them, even the ball boys.

They don’t ALL share in those big bucks, and not all get one before they sign an LOI.
During their recruitment, when they’re still in HS getting it from all the cheerleaders, they are NOT dropping coin on female playmates- many have no or very little coin to drop.

The girl in the car wreck involving Georgia players, exhibit 1.

10 years? He will be lucky if he makes it 3 much less 5.

Gus was ran off after 8 and he had pretty good success for them overall and vs CNS.

Tubs made it 10 because of that streak while we were crippled by sanctions.

No way Freeze lasts as long as either of them without some kind of Decline on our side.

I'm ok with Auburn doing the rotation merry-go-round every 2 years or so. Honestly, I think Freeze would have them at a good level for Auburn if they gave him 3-4 years. Probably sooner but I would be happy for them to continue their instability.

Mickey mouse football can make the fanbase excited for one or two years but will never make them a sustainable winner.
