Would you rather see....

Hugh Freeze show caused, along with several assistants, 24 schollies over 3 and 2 year bowl ban

Or

Hugh Freeze suspended 6 games, assistants suspended 6 games, 40 over 4, and 3 year ban.


Essentially, would you rather see them keep Freeze with harsher penalties or lose Freeze and lessen the penalties? I think I'd rather see Hugh have to coach a team that was recruited a little more honestly.

It doesn't matter what we want. The NCAA wants scum like him gone.

 

[Drebin]

In your scenario, I would much rather see the second one.....40/4 and a 3 year ban...their program may never return from that.

But to be clear, Ole Miss could fire Freeze today and throw themselves at the mercy of the NCAA - and they're still getting more than 24 schollies docked. I think 30/3 is the absolute floor, even if things go as well as possible for them at the hearing.

Option"B".
Because they fire freeze after 3 years of losing to Vanderbilt and Memphis.

Option B cause Freeze knows no other way to recruit and when the NCAA catches him again, it will be the death penalty. And you know the NCAA will be watching him and OM like a hawk.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

definitely B. Freeze cracks me up.

 

[missouridawg]

I think you're missing the point by of this, but carry on.

 

[Shamoan]

option b. hugh simply isnt that great of a difference maker. see last year....5-7 with their bought talent should earn him a reprimand not an extension. take away players and they will be calling for his head in a couple of seasons...which is going to happen anyway. option b leads eventually to option a.

Easily Option B. Freeze is a pretty good coach, but his strength is basically running an offense that gets the ball to playmakers. How many of those do you think he's going to have going forward? And Freeze has some significant weaknesses as a coach also. And how much of his success has been driven by having a good defensive coordinator (or at least good enough when Allen was helping him), and how good of a coordinator is he going to be able to have going forward?

Freeze just won't be a difference maker when dealing with any NCAA sanctions.
