Hugh Freeze Resigns (Escorts Involved?)
- Thread starter GamecockJL
- Start date
Why the NCAA didn't poke around Clempson after the 2011 recruiting season ended is a mystery. They were going nowhere before hauling in (4) 5-star players, and multiple 4-stars from out-of-state following a head coaching change, multiple assistant coaching changes over 2 seasons, and a losing season in 2010. How does that happen?
Our run was fueled by getting the best players from SC. There were a few like Shaw and Cooper, but Shaw was a 3-star from GA, and Cooper was a 4-star from NC. We didn't have a losing season followed by a top 10-15 recruiting class with multiple out-of-state 4-5 star players.
Technically, if he was the one visiting the escort, he didn't break any recruiting rules. Maybe marriage vows, but not recruiting rules.
True but not a huge stretch to believe if he was doing that sort of thing that he would have an issue breaking the rules in recruiting. Either you have character or you don't

Lol, this is not what I expected Freeze to be fired over. The irony of "it's okay to cheat and pay players but DO NOT call a hooker on a university phone" makes me laugh.

You are assuming the escorts were for him. They were for potential recruits, IMHO.
what the heck is the world coming to, when a HBC can't call his ho's without getting fired...
Don't be so sure it was for Hugh, remember what happened with the basketball team at Louisville. Could have easily been setting up his players.
give Clemons credit for knowing how to get away with it...Heck they caught Auburn and did nothing about it...UNC will get off as well...Ole Mi$$ should go to court and claim selective prosecution
They apparently run the ncaa. They've been out of jail for years. Climpson is the same.
Archie Manning played a big part in hiring Freeze. I bet Archie won't be on the next hiring committee.
“I know the integrity of Hugh Freeze,” he (Archie Manning) added. “That’s my only answer. That’s what I know.”

Gotta tip your hat to the programs that know how to cheat regularly without hardly ever getting caught.
please...they'll hire a new coach and be back on their feet after a year of sanctions..the only sanction that lasts is losing...
I don't think so. Before they started cheating the only time Ole Miss was any good in the last 40 years was during Eli Manning's time there. And even in Freeze's peak season, the Rebels only won 10 games. Hell, even we won 11 games 3 years in a row. It's going to be rocky for them in the foreseeable future. It will be interesting to see who wants that job.
As long as you keep it out of the headlines, the NCAA doesn't care what you do. And the only reports that make it out of clemson are the ones they approve.
Moral of the story: call hookers with your personal cell phone-not your employer issued one.
I wonder what the Moms of the recruits and players think of this Escort services????
How much more money they could have gotten without the Escort services...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but so far the NCAA technically had nothing to do with Freeze leaving. The escort discovery came from the Nutt lawsuit. Ole Miss administration may have been upset about the NCAA snooping around and wanted an excuse to get rid of Freeze.
I believe they would have had to pay him if they fired him over the NCAA investigation. Or, at the very least, he would have had grounds for a lawsuit. However, there's no way he's going to fight these escort allegations. In fact didn't he technically resign?
Depends on how is contract is written. I can totally believe that a university would insist on a clause making major NCAA rules infractions that could be directly tied to the coach a for-cause termination that nullifies the contract.
I'm sure you're right. But in this particular case, Ole Miss is fighting the allegations. It would have been difficult to fire Freeze with cause on one hand and fight the NCAA with the other. The escort scandal allowed Ole Miss to get rid of Freeze without admitting guilt on the NCAA violations.
They're not fighting all the allegations, because they've already self-imposed sanctions. That is an admission that violations occurred.
From the Ole Miss site, he had a "moral turpitude" clause in his contract and the AD announced they weren't paying him. The veracity of that statement would be pretty easy to check out down the road since it is a public institution.
No whores at Clemson forced players to fondle opposing players when they were on the ground.
Dabo's been at Clemson for 10 years now. There isn't even the smallest breath of potential scandal with the program. I mean, seriously, engage your brain.
"Why the NCAA didn't poke around Clemson after the 2011 recruiting season ended is a mystery." The only mystery is why the NCAA hasn't investigated Steve Spurrier for raping your football program for basically his last 3 years there. It's just moronic to wonder why one of the best 3 recruiting staffs in the country managed to get high-quality players to come play for an obviously up-and-coming program. Ole Miss picked up 3 of the top 20 players in the nation the first years Frieze was there. That would be suspicious.
Heard a rumor that another SEC school turned Ole Miss in (I'm not owning the rumor, just saying I heard it ).
In any event if that is indeed true, it wouldn't be a school that lost two them twice and almost 3 times in a row. I mean no way Saban would stoop to that level. (inset massive sarcasm)
