Exactly. People can throw the Xanax and "calm down" crap all they want. But Pruitt wants to hire Freeze. If he gets blocked, he isn't hiring the guy he wants. Period. Lindsey is gone. We don't want to fall down the board with the most important hire Pruitt will make. Really simple folks.

I don't even know what to say...You are right.

Maybe the PR machine is to put in a show as if this was a tough decison that we didn't take lightly. History says we screw it up but I could see people wanting it to seem like we aren't just jumping at hiring him without serious convos
 
OrangeBlood. Is Ashlee a fan of UT basketball????
Additionally at some point next football season I would like your entire fam to be my guest at a game so lets get something in the works to make that happen. I want to meet her and your entire family too. I will make it an experience she won’t forget.

We are bringing my 10 year old daughter to her first basketball game Dec 19th and would love for you to meet her and the hubs as well. We created another VFL when we took her to her first football game this season! You seem like good people and i personally appreciate all you do for folks.
 
That would be a game breaker if true.

Doubt it is, all things considered

I have a good friend who had Freeze as a teacher. He is a huge MSU fan. He would probably tell me if he ever heard/saw anything out of the ordinary.

It is usually just a "pile on" type of situation once the news broke of him being fired at OM.

God Bless you and yours! May more people show kindness and compassion like this.

There are things bigger than sports. But sports is most impactful when it brings people together.

But new allegations made to USA Today Sports put a damper on that success. In a search to find out just what kind of person Freeze is, USA Today's Josh Peter spoke with some of Freeze's former female players at Briarcrest. That's when three women informed him about Freeze's inappropriate behavior.

Via USA Today:

Katie Dalmasso, 27, said she was an eighth grader at Briarcrest in 1999 when Freeze made her change shirts inside his office after he said her Grateful Dead T-shirt violated school dress code.
"Coach Freeze pulled me in his office and told me that my shirt represented drugs," Dalmasso said. “I said, ‘I’ll go change in the bathroom,’ and when I said that he said, ‘No, you’re going to change in here so I get the (Grateful Dead) shirt and you can’t have it back.’
"He didn’t do anything sexual. But I stood in the corner and faced the wall when I did it and I changed out of my shirt. No privacy."
Another former Briarcrest student said Freeze was “hyper attentive’’ to the length of her skirts and that he loomed in the parking lot after she would go to her car to change clothes.​
Per the report, another woman even created a closed Facebook group "to offer a safe place to discuss Freeze after some former Briarcrest students received threats for criticizing the coach and making allegations about him online."
A second woman, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told the newspaper Freeze was "hyper attentive'' to the length of her skirts. She said he stayed in the parking lot while she went to her car to change.

She went on to say when she and football players were disciplined the football players had the option of being paddled as opposed to detention.

She decided to take that option as well, but was "shocked" when he administered the paddling and not a female teacher.

"(Freeze) did some bizarre warm-up taunt before actually making contact,'' the woman told USA TODAY. "I was humiliated that he didn't have a female in the room.

"I don't know if the acts were intentionally sexual or if he was really that oblivious to the inherently sexual nature of his approach to discipline.''
Hugh Freeze stories emerge from former female students at Briarcrest Christian
 
“Seminal moment” lol

He’s a damn offensive coordinator who has been in serious trouble with the NCAA and crosses major ethical lines.

Let’s stop acting like this is shocking or the end of the world.

What’s so shocking is that a fan base that hated Hugh Freeze with a red hot passion would now sell its soul to have him and throw a rage fit if he isn’t hired.

Kingston, you've been around football long enough to know that this is normal. Just like in the pro ranks when a player you love to hate is traded to your favorite team. Now all of a sudden he's the greatest thing going. That's just sports.
