CBS says Freeze leads

[Cocky 45]

There have been reports that Oklahoma associate head coach Shane Beamer is interested in the job, which may be nothing more than leverage for the Virginia Tech job to open up. Beamer is the son of legendary Hokies coach Frank Beamer and has been in his position with the Sooners since 2018.

Still, Hugh Freeze remains the leader for South Carolina until he isn't. There is still a feeling that Tennessee could open if the Volunteers decide to pull the plug on coach Jeremy Pruitt (15-17, 9-14 SEC) after his third season. Tennessee is a better job if Freeze is holding out for a place that puts an emphasis on winning champions.

Who is this guy? It's like he skimmed through a wikipedia page and then wrote an article that was published by CBS.

"Tanner, the Gamecocks' longtime baseball coach, has been AD for nearly nine years. This is his first major hire. He would like to have a Muschamp replacement by next Wednesday (a week before early signing day). He'd better hurry. High school prospects are already withdrawing their commitments."

How could UT fire Pruitt after only 3 years its ridiculous. 3 years get a new coach ,3 years get a new coach, 3 years get a new coach. That's the vols way of doing things. They think it's still the 90s or something. 7 head coaches since 2008 yes a couple were interim head coach. But still you get what I'm saying . "Winning championship ".....lol

Seriously. That would be like 15 new coaches since Fulmer.

Please, please, please let this be true. We are idiots if we don't make him say no.

Please, please, please let this be true. We are idiots if we don't make him say no.

It is not. Freeze has never been interested in or a contender for this job.

That's the reason they have BS after C

You throw enough money at him he will come. Its obvious we are going cheap when Napier and Beamer are your top 2. Even Ray Charles could see it.

CBS, like in a lot of areas, is lost. It seems a lot of their article regurgitated rumors from weeks ago as to what might happen if Muschamp was fired. Topped off by saying this was Tanner's first big hire. They don't have a clue

I think that describes the vast majority of online sports reporting nowadays. Heck, it describes most reporting period. When was the last time you read a news story online that really told you a lot of information you didn't already know? Typically, there's maybe one or two sentences in the article that actually advances the story and the rest is filler to meet the publisher's minimum word-count.

Throw in nothing phrases like "Many say . . .," "Some believe, . . ," "Is considered . . .," etc and any one of us could have written that article.

Heck, we know probably more than they do.

There are reports that this writer woke up from a seven day plastic bottle vodka and glue bender, and filed a story based on what he remembered from last week.

Many people are reporting it.

Per Paul Finebaum, and he's wrong more than he's right, says Pruitt will get another year UT.

I'm legitimately confused. Doesn't the article you linked say Freeze isn't expected to be a candidate and is contradicting the article in rg OP?
