I like...sounds feasible!I live in Memphis and I married into a big Ole Miss family, so I stay up to date on all the news from Oxford.
Something I heard from a decently connected Ole Miss guy was that Freeze has already been hired by TN. He said they offered him the job when he met with Pruitt in Memphis and he accepted behind closed doors, but they are waiting to make it official. The reason they are waiting is because they expect the SEC/NCAA to put recruiting restrictions on Freeze once he’s officially hired. They are letting him quietly reach out to some recruits he knows personally before the announcement to try and lock up some elite committments.
The evidence he offered was the commitment from Harrison Bailey. He said Bailey and Freeze are very close and have been for a while. Most people were surprised to hear that an elite QB prospect would commit to a school with an OC vacancy, but if you assume he already knew who the OC would be, it doesn’t seem as weird.
** This could very well be BS but it’s an interesting theory if nothing else! I don’t know the guy who told me very well, but I do know he’s at least somewhat connected in Oxford. **

I hope you do not mind that I wait until UT announces it before I believe this story.I live in Memphis and I married into a big Ole Miss family, so I stay up to date on all the news from Oxford.
