RE: Freeze to UAB ?
the UAT BOT won't let UAB hire anyone they think will be a winner. so, Freeze is definitly not headed to Birmingham.

RE: Freeze to UAB ?
Every fanbase out there assumes they can get Freeze because they don't have a clue what ASU or the rest of the Belt have to offer. UAB, Tulane, Memphis, etc. don't have the support or infrastructure to lure him away without making an AQ type of financial offer and they aren't going to be that foolish.
Freeze and Hudspeth are going to be mentioned a lot because of their seasons. I can't speak for Hudspeth but it is highly unlikely Freeze is leaving for any non-AQ job and he will get a hefty raise if he stays at ASU.
Funny thing is that both won with someone else's recruits and if not for one game in JB a few weeks ago it would be more Huspeth talk than Freeze right now.

The days of Sun Belt HC's making 125K a year are long gone (I think). The better coaches make enough that they won't go to a dead end program.

Freeze would be better off waiting for a good job to open up. Not that Astate isn't a good job. But Tennecheat or Kentucky should be coming open in the next few season.

U-cheaT will go after a big name hire the next time out. They'll throw millions to the next HC. They are currently paying coaches who no longer work there more than MT's entire budget.

Hud isn't going to Tulane, that is a pipe dream by their delusional fans. If Hud is stupid enough to take the job, he will be writing his own obituary as a coach because that job is a disaster with no potential of success. Now, interestingly, with Huds ties to Mississippi, if even USM comes available, I would be concerned about him leaving for that position. This would all be if Fedora would be offered a job that he couldn't refuse. It would be an upgrade over what we probably would be able to pay, at a job in the state he is from, at one of the traditional Non-AQ powers, so it would be enticing. Still, I think with how the cajuns fanbase has ponied up money after this season, I think he will be one of the better paid coaches not only in the SB, but non-AQ soon.

One poster mentions him favorably in that regard ('favorably' in terms of copy-pasting his ASU bio page). And while nobody curses the suggestion outright, the majority of the responses aren't that enthusiastic.
Reading comprehension. You lack it.

Middle Tennessee has one, and it still has trouble keeping up with the diploma mill headquartered in Pike County, AL.
We should probably still aim for one, though.

I could see him leave for USM if offered. It's his alma mater. The only AQ school I could see actually offering him the job is Ole Miss & that's because of his ties to that program. The rest of this hysteria is being created by his agent, Jimmy Sexton IMHO.

"We"? I can't remember the last time UAB played MT in football, and the next time you out number us in the 'ham will be the first. Keep saying it, though. It's good for a cheap (if patently delusional) laugh.
