Yeah, HometownTiger already explained this away Ole Mrs. style in a another thread.

I'd like to hear his take on Bro Wallace calling an audible and throwing a TD in the Memphis Game late.

In all fairness, I don't think HometownTiger ever really tried to hide it ... no need to "flush out" there, I think.

Freeze wanted to cover against us. That was all he was trying to do.

Yeah, he coaches based on betting lines. Do people not even think before they post?

Yep, I certainly think most everyone watching knew why he dialed up that particular call with under 2:00 to go. There was money at stake.

One piece of advice - NEVER use the word "class" in a sentence with Freeze in it. He has zilch.

That was against a team he should have been coaching, wanted to be coaching, and might still be coaching if our AD had any sort of vision.

Don't be sour now that he's dominating somewhere else. Class or no, covering keeps boosters happy. Happy boosters = happy program.

wrong,

a memphis coached larry porter team only played at jonesboro

We took a knee against Cincy when we could have scored again.

Yet Fuente got a little fire when Ifedi got injured in a blowout game against Austin Peay when the game was soundly in hand.

As a coach, you're damned if you do and damned if you don't.

there is your answer. Coaches take a knee to not subject their team to a needless injury. Very little to do with class.

You take a knee to run the clock and end the game when the score is out of reach. Class.

I learned that from my high school coach, maybe you played for someone different?

Are you being serious with this? Have you ever watched Urban Meyer coach a game in your life? He was the king of this.

Part of your job as a coach, especially an SEC coach, is making the big money boosters happy. You know what middle aged dudes with lots of money like to do? Bet on sports. You know who they like to bet on? The teams that they happen to donate tens of thousands of dollars to support; their alma maters.

Next, do you know makes dude's with lots of money who bet on their own teams happy? Winning more money by betting on their team.

Last, can you guess where some of those gambling winnings may go the next time that their team passes the hat for donations? I'll give you a guess.

I just remembered you also believe Coach Cal threw the game against Missouri. I guess the Illuminati is controlling this all and 9/11 was an inside job.

Sorry, Colorado called and wants their weed back.

Sir, I don't believe I've ever talked with you before today. I definitely don't think Cal threw the Mizzou game.

Wallace was on ESPN radio today. Discussed his past...Arkansas State, then East Mississippi Community College. While I get that Jonesboro is a dump, and Scooba is in the middle of nowhere...was surprised to hear Wallace mocking Jonesboro in a similar manner. He killed it...more class. Scooba...gave him an opportunity to play at a D 1 school...and basically be mediocre for two years then good for one...some of the time.

Shout out to EMCC? Nope...dumped on them too.

A guy got away with some sort of sexual assault.....stole crab from a grocery store.....he and 2 other FSU players caused $4000 worth of damage to windows and other fixtures engaging in a bb & pellet gun fight, goes into a restaurant....gets a free cup of water from an employee....pours out said water....and helps himself to free soda over employee's objections....doesn't show up at a expected code of conduct hearing at FSU. His lawyer says no one asked him to attend (malarky), then jumps up on a table in front of several students and starts screaming a sexually charged expletive at the top of his lungs.

They tried it on UT and failed then ran it in

Of course, coaches with respect for their opponent take a knee; and they certainly don't pass the ball into the end zone inside 2 minutes, as he did against both Memphis and UT. I'm no Ole Miss hater and am happy as a lark for for long suffering OM and State friends, but Freeze has shown his ass at the end of the Memphis and UT games and he'll be on the receiving end at some point.
