Our sources tell us Coach Freeze addressed his recruits this morning in
an emotional fashion. The last slide of a power point presentation
showed the all-time Egg Bowl record. Freeze lowered his head for a
moment as the room fell silent. He then looked up, pounded the podium
and said, "We will never lose to that team again! Not on my watch!" The
room exploded. There is excitement in Oxford once again.

Dan said that and they all raised the roof claiming how stupid he was for making a statement like that.
Now Freeze says it and he "gets it"!

We put up billboards to promote MSU and we were stupid for wasting money like that!
Now they are putting up billboards and it is the smart thing to do!

They, then turn right around and say that the billboards and such are a circus and Feeze is turning around the right way. Recruits will see through the circus.
How has he turned it around? He has not even set foot on the practice field yet? Thats about as delusional as you could possibly get!

Let's just hope that Freeze isn't as good of a coach as Mullen. Also, I think the state of their program right now is MUCH more similar to ours in 2003, rather than ours in 2008. Personnel and discipline wise. They just fired their coach a year earlier than we did. And proof again that keeping a lame duck results in epic beatdowns.<div>
</div><div>I wonder if they'll tolerate one, but probably two, seasons of 4-8 before getting rid of him. Realistically he'll probably get the program in pretty good shape. At least he's got the good sense to come down and recruit and bring in JUCO OL, unlike Croom. Croom would rather ***** about it.</div>

One was a long-time college assistant and coordinator who won a lot of titles and coached a couple of Heisman winners. The reaction to the hire nationally was positive. The other has a total of 3 years as a college assistant but has been a head coach at the HS and Div. III level and has had success at those levels. The reaction nationally to the hire was lets just say not positive. Really the only similarity is that neither had been a Div. I head coach before. Of course none of thatmeans thatFreeze can or can't win at Mississippi. We'll see. Either way, I'm not too concerned who their head coach is. As long as we're hiring good coaches and taking care of our business, we'll be OK. And if we're not, we won't be OK no matter how bad of a train wreck they may have in Oxford.

The Freeze hire is closer to the Dooley hire at UT than our Mullen hire. Most State fans were ecstatic when Mullen was announced and he quickly said and did things to unite the fanbase. Most Bear fans were underwhelmed by the Freeze hire and I don't think he's done a lot to warm over the already fractured fanbase. The Bear fans I know expected a Tressell/Meyer/Rich Rod hire and Huge Freeze simply failed to meet their delusions of gridiron grandeur.

Not suggesting they shouldn't bring it up or be proud of it. I would if the scenario were reversed, but if history would repeat itself over the next decade and Freeze managed to keep his job, he will have beaten us 5 to 6 times. Knowing our history only has a handful of seasons worth bragging about and they have the 50s/60s plus a handful of other seasons, color me unimpressed with that "dominating" record over us...

but since the games have been back on campus - 1991 - we lead 12-9 (57.14%). It's about the same winning percentage as 60-42 (58.8%).

is that Arkansas State UPGRADED themselves with his replacement. The bears don't want to hear that but that is how it's looked at everywhere but in Oxford. Cue up the bear posters.......

Dan said it AFTER thumping them the second time, in their house no less. He was NOT walking around saying that when first hired...or even after the 2009 beat down.

Big boy words only work if you wear big boy pants. Freeze should wait until he's actually matched up with us before making such ridiculous proclamations.

I'm curious as to how players not from Mississippi really get so excited about a lesser know rivalry game? That smells of desperation.

now is that where nafoomers have blasted State for doing something, and OM turns around and does the exact same thing? It's funny how nafoomers will correct us on recruiting, but disappear on this issue. How long before Freeze mentions winning championships, to add to the list?

one nafoomer comes forward and admits the hipocrasy of nafoomers. It only took about 15
instances before one of you owned up to it. Too bad the other pussies (ombd, lion, bruiser) can't own it.

known for offense and have been around winning before. Come on, you're seriously going to act like they aren't similar? Use your brain.<div>
</div><div>And who cares about expectations of the hire. That's nothing but **** that's contrived up by people like you and I, who aren't actually playing or coaching the game.</div>

it will likely be impossible that Arkansas State actually upgraded. Do you think Malzahn will win 10 games there next year? I sure don't. <div>
</div><div>And don't act like you know the state of the ASU program because you'd be lying. None of us know anything about them except what they did in the Godaddy.com Bowl.</div><div>
</div><div>You people are seriously so out of it that you're making me defend an Ole Miss coach. Guy deserves the benefit of the doubt. He HAS in fact won on the D1 level before.</div>
