Hugh Freeze, Auburn Discussing Their Coaching Career

Hugh Freeze

Hugh Freeze, the current football coach at Liberty, has been involved in talks with Auburn for several weeks, according to sources who spoke to ESPN’s Thamel.

Although the parties have been informally discussing a deal for further than one week, according to insiders, the Tigers really aren’t likely to submit a firm offer till after weekend’s Iron Bowl game versus Alabama.

After Ole Miss boss Lane Kiffin stated earlier in the week that he wanted to remain with Rebels regardless of whether the Tigers handed him the boss post, Auburn’s chase of Freeze suddenly come to the forefront. Later, Kiffin informed ESPN’s Low on Weekend that Kiffin had reached an agreement with Miss to extend his contract.

John Cohen, the recently hired td at Auburn, had limited the field to Freeze as well as Kiffin and thoroughly scrutinized both instructors, sources have told Low.

Hugh Freeze And The Auburn Discussing Their Coaching Career:

After spending 5 campaign at Ole Miss since twenty-twelve, Freeze will rejoin towards the SEC. Freeze led the Rebels to an inspiring 39-25 record until resigning in July 2017 when it was discovered that he had called a number connected to an escort agency using a cell phone given by the institution.

For breaches that partly took place during Hugh Freeze, Ole Miss also was put on NCAA suspension in 2017; the penalties would include a 2-year bowl ban.

Hugh Freeze was given a warning by NCAA’s panel on violations for failing to keep an eye on his coaching staff and the institution’s supporters, but the NCAA report states that Freeze “created a culture of conformity” and won’t receive a display punishment.

With Flames, the fifty-three-year-old Freeze regained notoriety. With records of 8-5, 10-1, as well as 8-5 in his initial 3 years, Freeze increased the standard after Gill’s 6-6 performance in Liberty’s inaugural comprehensive FBS season in 2018. During that stretch, they defeated No. 9 Coastal Carolina in the Cure Bowl in 2020.
