Tennessee's return to the top of the SEC East will be known in later years as the Ice Age.

The Second Ice Age

The first:

I don't mind Freeze being our next OC and we all know that its Freeze that has to build trust back to his family, the next team he coaches at and the football world. You got to know that there will be an accountability built in his contract to protect UT. At least I hope so.

 

[jakez4ut]

If it does end up being Freeze, how long do you think he'd be here for? I'm thinking two years max.

Circumstances will dictate... But yeah if we have the type of success we hope we can get... Yeah it'll be tough to keep the staff together long term.

I want that problem.

 

[Blake25p]

I'm totally fine with Freeze being here for 2 years.

What I was thinking earlier. Coach here for 2 years and improve his reputation then leave for a HC gig.

 

[JacketVol]

They may try for Houston, but I was told on Tuesday night that Butch was the leading candidate for ECU.

I heard today that Louisville is considering Butch

 

[SweetasSoda]

Never!

Your posts remind me of all the Eeyores in my life lol.

I’m not borrowing trouble. Let’s score the lights out till he’s gone then worry about the next guy instead of worrying if the non-Freeze candidate will work out.

There is just no way this is a bad football move

Then come back whenever Pruitt leaves for Alabama lol

Hadn't heard or seen that... ECU is the only one I've seen/heard about

 

[HankHill]

I wouldn’t say that. Even if he really well as OC, teams are still gonna have serious reservations about giving him the keys to an entire program, especially one at the level of Ole Miss or better.

It’s not like he’s Helton and just wanting his first shot as a HC, i don’t think he would leave unless a P5 job offered him a head coach job.

Get out! Are you serious? Saban has got to be helping him get a job.

 

[tomq_123]

I'm totally fine with Freeze being here for 3 years.

This.

I’d be cool with it lol

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Heck, let Osovet work under Freeze. Freeze moves on in 2 years, pass the keys to osovet and let’s go

 

[revjayp]

It’s going to be year 3 before we get to see our team with an opportunity to shine. Probably year 4 to even sniff the CFPs. I’d like to see Freeze here for at least 3 years.

 

[Nashvegas31]

Not demanding perfection. I'm just saying it's kinda gross to knowingly have and act on those imperfections while tweeting out bible verses between text messages from Shondra and Minnie.

Ha yeah I get it. If this were a HC job I would not be for it right now. Yrs down road probably but not now. As an assistant it's different. Your in background. Rarely talk to media especially in our program.

 

[BruinVol]

year 3 is the year and that's why we don't want a darn grad transfer QB this year

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Then come back whenever Pruitt leaves for Alabama lol

I’ve accepted that Pruitt will either be good enough to return to Bama one day, or not good enough and eventually be gone from here... and I’m not giving one second of worry towards it

Let’s win

 

[JacketVol]

Here’s a question. Does Pruitt allow Freeze to hire his own support staff? Say he wanted to bring in a WR coach or QB coach that he trusts and is vital to his success. Does Pruitt do it? I’ll hang up and listen...

We have the best WR coach. Would go with Lindsey instead and keep Johnson instead of that. QB coach to replace one other on staff even if fair then I am ok with that.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

I think within two years he will have rehabilitated his image with a lot of folks. He's Bill Clinton slick. Listen to him give a speech or an interview for five minutes and he has people liking him.

 

[volatil]

Hugh Freeze had top 5 recruiting classes at Ole Miss.

Who cares if he leaves in a couple years? He will just bring in more stars. Then wait for it...

Develop that talent.

Yes mothereffing please
