I had a buddy that played at Lambeth under hugh freeze and said he paid all of the top players on the team after every game. Paid for good performances too. Also paid players not to leave for bigger schools. Dude is a cheater and will always be a cheater.
I don't know about that regarding Lambuth. Maybe at first when he got there he could do that but toward the end Lambuth couldn't even afford to pay the coaching staff let alone a player. although what you describe goes on a lot of places. So it wouldn't suprise me. I know for a fact it happened at Ole Miss back in the Cut days so I am sure Freeze has it at an even higher level.
Too many shady recruitments on his watch for nothing to be going on there at a serious level.
Freeze actually left before Lambuth's financial restraints became some prevalent.
In fact, many still say that the football program and its expenses under Vic Wallace and then Freese was a major contributor to the downfall of Lambuth.
I was involved in a discussion a while back about Freeze at Lambuth. Someone said that they knew that Freeze's salary there was paid by private donors and that Freeze made decent money (as in, more than one would think at a small school). He even mentioned some financial guy in or around Jackson that helped pay. Not that it really matters, but do you know anything about that?
