  1. you might not know since you joined in 21 but marshmellow came on the aufam raising hell about posting his stuff when half of what he posted or some to be fair he stole from this board.
  2. lol ok now it detoured slighting and is headed to richmond. gotta love reddit as they are always on it right or wrong!
  3. here is another nice rumor from reddit....... Sorry - Flight Tracking Post - Looks like AU plane is heading towards Lynchburg, VA. Location of, you guessed it, Liberty University.
  4. i read where he is a top ten all time wins coach but now i cannot find the article. we can and might still do worse......
  5. just dunna call the popo as i am holding with my pot vape..........lol
  6. now here is a rumor i tend to believe with no factual evidence. if it is fake it was well thought out. and here it is............ RUMOR - The latest rumor I have heard is that Auburn has hired a PR firm for "damage control". This is unsubstantiated but from someone connected. NOT confirmed, NOT from someone actually within the program. Unsubstantiated Rumor If true, this tells me they are prepping for a freeze hire. bad news. hopefully this isnt true.
  7. i was just picking hank. that was my mean streak talking.
  8. too late. i jumped off the bridge to end it all and i caught my pants leg on the railing and now i am just dangling here twisting in the wind and it is YOUR fault because of your timing..................lol
  9. for a person that likes facts you are just stating an opinion hank. i would love to see a link.
  10. i agree with you but fans are changing and i think most of them think all coaches have baggage and they just want to win period and could care less how it looks to bad behavior. i personally want them to pay what it takes to get the beamer kid or just give it to caddy and give him the best assistants money can buy.
  11. some will laugh. some will cry. some will cringe. did we do freeze any favors when it comes to head coaches stepping out on their wives? i mean we had a coach that did and got away with it even tho their were hotel receipts. i certainly hope freeze is thinking......hey just maybe.................grins
  12. i was hoping we would talk to fritz but it appears he will be jawja techs new head coach.
  13. they say he took jalen and made him a way much better qb.
  14. i read where auburn fans are panicking and they are looking at him reluctantly because so many want him. this you can take with a grain of salt as well. but this has been one crazy search.
  15. i think this is true because freeze informed liberty he was talking to auburn. i think i posted the article which was short.
  16. Brandon Marcelo reporting Hugh Freeze is still likely to be hired. Marcelo posted that Hugh is still the favorite and Auburn is just slowly doing more background checks about an hour ago on 247. i have no clue if this is pay stuff or not since it was posted openly on reddit i feel it is fair game. mods if i am wrong please let me know..................
  17. you still have not told the board how awesome and sexy i am hank. i bet you have not even got my christmas present yet....................grins
  18. i can counter that by saying bear told dye if he would wait he would be bears pick when he stepped down. he loved bear and still went to auburn so i think the seeds were already there to love auburn.
  19. Can the SEC stop Auburn from hiring Hugh Freeze as football coach? Here's what league bylaws say Tommy Deas, Nashville Tennessean 5–6 minutes Auburn football is looking for a new coach in the wake of Bryan Harsin's firing Monday. A candidate whose name has come up in discussion, at least among fans, is that of former Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze. With a background that includes major NCAA sanctions under his watch at Ole Miss, would the SEC welcome him back? And if not, could the league do anything to stop it? Freeze, now at Liberty, left Ole Miss under an NCAA investigation. Additionally, an internal school investigation uncovered a pattern of calls from his university phones to numbers found in ads for escort services. Ole Miss was accused of 15 Level I violations, and the NCAA infractions committee said the school lacked institutional control and fostered "an unconstrained culture of booster involvement in football recruiting." The NCAA penalties resulted in the school vacating 33 wins over six seasons. Some of the infractions – which included alleged academic, booster and recruiting rules violations – dated to the tenure of previous coach Houston Nutt, but most occurred under Freeze. Ole Miss ended up with a two-year bowl ban as well as a three-year probation, scholarship reductions and recruiting restrictions. The NCAA issued a two-conference-game suspension of Freeze if he had been hired as a head coach for the following season. OPINION: If Hugh Freeze becomes Auburn football coach, his first task is obvious STAY UP-TO-DATE: Subscribe to our Sports newsletter now! Freeze spent five seasons at Ole Miss, going 39-25 during that time (before vacated wins) and reached a bowl game in each of his first four seasons. He also beat Alabama twice, raising his profile and that of the program. He coached Ole Miss to nine-win regular seasons in back-to-back years for the first time since 1962 and took the Rebels to four consecutive bowl games for the first time since 1971. He was hired at Liberty prior to the 2019 season and has gone 33-12, including a 10-win season in 2020 and a 7-1 record so far this season, landing the Flames at No. 23 in the latest USA TODAY Coaches Poll. He has won bowl games after each of his previous three seasons. Given his background and unceremonious exit from Ole Miss, however, the SEC might have reservations about allowing him back into its coaching ranks. Alabama coach Nick Saban was reportedly interested in hiring Freeze on his staff in 2018, but indicated the league office convinced him to back off when asked about it. Liberty head coach Hugh Freeze has some words over a call with an official during the first half of an NCAA college football game against Mississippi in Oxford, Miss., Saturday, Nov. 6, 2021. Mississippi won 27-14. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis) So if Auburn decided to pursue Freeze, could the SEC do anything about it? The short answer is no, but there would be a discussion. SEC bylaw 19.8.1.2 requires member schools to "exercise best efforts to hire individuals committed to rules compliance." It does not, however, explicitly forbid league schools from hiring coaches with NCAA compliance baggage. "While each member institution makes its own hiring decisions," the bylaw states, "member institutions shall, at a minimum, request specific information from each candidate concerning his/her rules compliance record and communicate with NCAA enforcement and the Conference office regarding the same prior to offering employment to any candidate." But there's more. "In addition," the bylaw reads, "where a member institution considers hiring an individual who has engaged in unethical conduct as defined under NCAA Bylaws or who has participated in activity that resulted, or may result, in a Level I, Level II or major infraction, the President or Chancellor of that member institution is expected to consult directly with the Commissioner prior to offering employment to the individual." That means Auburn President Christopher B. Roberts would have to have a conversation with SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey before hiring Freeze. Freeze, if he were hired, would not be the first coach Auburn has hired with previous NCAA compliance issues. Bruce Pearl ran afoul of NCAA rules at Tennessee and was fired after admitting that he lied to investigators. Pearl coached at Tennessee from 2005-11 and was hired by Auburn in 2014. Penalties from the Tennessee infractions case included a three-year show-cause order on Pearl. Auburn hired Pearl in the final months of his show-cause order and he was not allowed to contact recruits until the order expired.

  20. dye had mad love for auburn. terry bowden loved auburn. and if we had listened to dye we would have had kirby as a coach and be in a better place even if he did leave for ga. i freely admit to wanting a role model for a coach. this will probably never happen unless we hired caddy.
  21. auburn is too embedded in my families history to ever quit pulling for auburn. it would be like a slap in the face to my dad who played football for auburn on the freshman team. that being said i would not be happy if we hired someone that might be scummy. on a different thread on this board it was stated some serious red flags popped up at liberty and we lost interest. it is somewhere in the football section. then there is the thing where a lot of folks out there think auburn is a joke and who would want to put up with the mess? i would prefer someone who loves auburn and wants to be here for more reasons than a hefty payday.
  22. jj they said no politics on the football board and they will be clamping down. titan spoke. just a word of caution is all......
  23. if you just want to argue let me know and i will load up. the first time she ever said anything about freeze was when he was hired by ol miss. she said he would end up hurting the uni and it did. and quit saying it should not be part of a background check. i am not on that committee. i have nothing to do with it but i thought i would mention what i was told. i made my statement in good faith and shared it.
  24. the problem is it shows nothing to YOU. i have known this lady over forty years and i value her opinion. just because you do not allow her opinion does not mean she is wrong either. i understand the i got a friend of a friend who sells pot to a kid who once attended a movie with hugh. this is not one of those. she is legit. and if you were paying attention i did not say this is a rumor. and i will say at times if something is a rumor and take it with a grain of salt.
  25. no hank there is no "we". she is a friend that went to school with freeze and knows him or did at the time very well. this lady walks the walk and she was just reaching out to me on a facebook post when i said it looked like freeze. there was no animosity she just said he would end up breaking our heart. i do not trust many people but i value her opinion and trust her explicitly. and why do you think it is even a part of a background check? you make no sense other than to take a shot at someone you said you were not taking a shoot at. have a good one hank.
