I think you have to let everyone get it all out/vent. Its still very fresh and raw right now.
-
Support the team and not feel the need to defend, justify, or "yeah but" freeze's past and reputation.

Thats a false dichotomy but Didn't want kiffin precisely because we would over pay.

there is a price/cost at which all the baggage is worth the fuss or at least taking a chance on the baggage, imo. 6 years/6.5MM is much to high imo. since 1) Auburn was making this move and 2) no one else was going after him (at least from what i understand) it would have been nice to see Auburn try and break the current paradigm of really high guranteed contracts and hire freeze at a low base and use a building incentive structure in his contract. if the guy is chomping at the bit to get back to prominence Auburn should have used that leverage more.

those are text, but i found it interesting he cant answer simple questions about what he did and said and keeps interjecting being a Christian into the convo to get reprieve.

Well the jury is put as to whether PR not he is worth the headache. Time will tell.

Coach putting some accountability in place

A "no" would have been fine. -

Can you name any ? -
this is my attitude. i have three pretty big problems with him 1) a pattern of lack of judgement starting as a high school coach and up to DMing this woman. its not any individual thing, its everything in context together showing that lack of judgement repeatedly. 2) using his religion to avoid responsibility or criticism. this whole "you aren't a good person or christian if you don't forgive him" is bunk. he didnt wrong me. he doesn't need my forgiveness. read this text exchange and tell me if this sounds like someone who is an honest forthright person. https://acrobat.adobe.com/link/track?uri=urn%3Aaaid%3Ascds%3AUS%3A74383d86-3fb6-4fbf-88cb-99b059c860ab&viewer%21megaVerb=group-discover i have been wary of people like this my entire life. it would be near impossible for me to trust someone like this. this more so than any moral shortcomings puts me off of him completely. 3) i don't think he is as good a coach as others do. all of this might be worth it for someone proven quantity, but he isn't. these are all my hang ups. no one else here as to share them.

Honest Question: 19-21 Record in SEC Play
fasttimes replied to Tampa Tiger's topic in AU Football Forum
not kidding myself. i said "everyone is doing it". whats the difference between everyone else and freeze? and is that difference significant/important? -
Honest Question: 19-21 Record in SEC Play
fasttimes replied to Tampa Tiger's topic in AU Football Forum
thems the rules at the time chief. and money to players at that time was much more influential than it is now. i honestly don't care about playing players, but to deny the impact it had at that time is naive. to attribute it to someone being a great recruiter is careless. my opinon of course. -
Honest Question: 19-21 Record in SEC Play
fasttimes replied to Tampa Tiger's topic in AU Football Forum
that context is fine and context is needed. don't leave out the fact that he cheated to get the players that won those games. we don't care because "everyone is doing it" but he did it and got caught. the reason i bring that up is i have no idea if he is the great recruiter folks say he is because he cheated so badly at ole miss he got caught. maybe he is maybe he isn't. we will find out. -
idk. probably smart as much as i hate to say it. obv thats not an option. for this particular search i literally would have been content with just about anyone but freeze. he was the one guy i absolutely didn't want. id rather have gus back with a BA oline coach/recruiter tbh. but freeze is the guy now. ill likely piss and moan about this another couple days then ill turn the page and be ready to get back to cheering for Auburn football again.
-
no one said anything about him committing any crimes. and no, none of this has be debunked. look, i don't care about the ncaa stuff tbh. the really bad part is lying to all the recruits and parents. i mean out right blatantly lying about things you are part of and know. thats a character credibility issue and it extends further to the escorts which he admitted to calling and using and cheating on his wife with. yes its between them but along with the lying to all the players and families we have a pattern of slimey behavior. its a pattern.
-
of course ill support the team. i couldn't give you an example of when i would stop supporting the team. but i think the hire sucks. i hope im wrong. no idea who for DC but it needs to be a knockout. also need someone for oline that can bring in guys who can play immediately.

no kidding. Auburn just hired a guy who they felt couldn't be trusted to handle his own social media account(s). amazing. i hope it works out. -
it may not be. but its there. then there is the cheating at ole miss, then there is the lying about the cheating at ole miss, then there is the calling "escorts" on the school phones, then there is the cheating on his wife, then most recently there are the DMs. again, a historic pattern of bad judgment. but hey bama was going to hire him if sankey would have let them.
-
i have no idea. im more concerned about his entire body of work going all the way back to making a high school girl take off her shirt in his office. not sure if that story was around when he was at ole miss or not.
-
its not the only thing. he has a long historic pattern of, how should i put this.....lapses in judgement. going all the way back to his high school stint. but this particular thing is not a big deal in a vacuum.

How do you have any idea?
-
How bad harsin was, yes. BUT what caddy was able to do on the fly in 4 games is really something.
