No clue if this is true but I was told today by a guy in Jackson that Hugh is very likely going to be let go after signing day. Apparently he got caught in a Bobby Petrino type situation. This is the first I had heard of anything like that and I find it hard to believe but it was interesting fodder none the less. This guy said he was told by a big money guy he is close friends with at Ole Miss and the guy I heard it from is a fan of an ACC school.

IF something like this had happened and UM knew about it- but Bjork waiting until AFTER signing day to fire Freeze... UM would be absolutely railed on by the media. You thought our Jeffrey Simmons situation or their current investigation were bad PR hits- those are child's play compared to what people would say about doing something that blatantly manipulative and deceitful.

Not to mention the fact that the NCAA would be beyond pissed. They'd probably go after Bjork and let all the 2017 signees transfer without having to sit out. I just don't see it. There's no way they'd be that stupid. Of course I've said that many times over the last 12 months, and UM has proven me wrong at every turn.

He got caught stealing Wake Forest's playbook and making terrible assistant trades? Well I guess we already knew about the last part. But seriously, if this turns out to be true, can't wait to see Spirit Ben tell us what a terrible person he is.

Off the cuff, I'm voting not true. Just doesn't seem how something would go down at all. Thanks for the rumor tho....always fun to speculate

HF is supposed to speak at the Men of Memphis conference at Bellevue baptist church February 3-4. If he for some reason backs out between now and then there may be some truth to this rumor.

The best part about this rumor is that it occurs after signing day. That tidbit of info nails Ole miss logic

Something that salacious just could not be kept under wraps .. by any school. This is Mississippi we're talking about here. Freeze, like Mullen and every other college football coach for that matter, has detractors. Even 'if' only one person knew the facts, the entire state would know in a matter of hours.

Hard sell. While I abhor how Bucky mixes religion and recruiting, just don't think this rumor has legs. If it does, we will all know about it before noon.

To me, unless he is breaking the law or NCAA rules

To me, unless he is breaking the law or NCAA rules, any thing like this shouldn't have anything to do with his job...if that was the case, about half the people out there would be unemployed if held to same standard...but if you build yourself up on a base of sand...you better be ready for the fall...

All coaches have a morality clause in their contracts. Even the ones who are Southern Baptist preachers.

I'm with you. Freeze makes himself a target for everyone to take shots at, but I can't imagine a school firing him over something like that.

You think half of the people cheat on their wives with people at work? Where do you live Reunion?

This has been out there for a while and it appears has been successfully

contained. I wouldn't look for much to come of this.

I would think keeping stuff contained is a fulltime job. Orchestrated Cover Up is his middle name.

Hence the cover ups. Nobody still believes Bobby Petrino had a motorcycle accident anymore, right?

Need to hear from Spirit Ben: Which is the greater moral failure? Murray punking the rebellette fatass? Or Beav porking the beauty school dropout?

It is sounding more likely almost by the day that Freezer will not survive this offseason. The ultimate cause will be the NCAA imposing severe sanctions or at some point following their hearing in Indianapolis reality setting in for them about the severity of the sanctions. Probably just a matter of timing and how to spin the message now.

Yes and he got caught days before Egg Bowl which is why he looked like ****. He has been living in Manning Center ever since.

Boy, I don't know what you're hearing, but EVERYONE in Oxford knows about it. It has to be one of the most discussed aspects of OM football over the last few months.

Odd the media hasn't covered it if that's the case, as someone else mentioned he

likely has a morality clause in his contract and he is a Taxpayer employee.

I'm not sure how far outside the walls of the athletic department a morality clause covers. I always thought they were saying "You can't sleep with a student/co-worker" more than "You can't have a side piece".

This is hilarious, but also a great point. The same people hatin on David Murray (or Jeff Simmons, or etc. etc. etc.) the loudest are the same ones turning a blind (third) eye to Freezus' shenanigans.

Maybe that needs to be Rosie's book title: The Blind Eye.

Isaiah 57 verses 3-6
3 “But you—come here, you children of a sorceress, you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes!
4 Who are you mocking? At whom do you sneer and stick out your tongue?
Are you not a brood of rebels, the offspring of liars?
5 You burn with lust among the oaks and under every spreading tree;
you sacrifice your children in the ravines and under the overhanging crags.
6 The idols among the smooth stones of the ravines are your portion;indeed, they are your lot.
Yes, to them you have poured out drink offeringsand offered grain offerings.
In view of all this, should I relent?

Mullen Chapter 1 verse 1:
1 We will strain and give relentless effort.
