Literally nobody in the SEC wants us to get Freeze. The Auburn and Tenn boards are lit up with calls for coaching changes so that they have a shot at him.
Unfortunately, I don't think he will be the next HBC at Carolina, because some are afraid of his "baggage". He'll probably end up at tenn and kick our asses for the next 10 years.
I believe you may be correct that the push back about the baggage may be insurmountable for a Freeze hire at USC.
If our fans reaction to kids wanting to move on after their coaches/mentors/father figures were just fired and the people who they thought supported them started talking shit about them personally has proven anything it is that 'fans' don't seem to know shit about much to do with building a winning program...so I wouldn't worry about a bunch of UT fans freaking out on twitter. There is a good chance they don't have any idea what they are talking about.
I think these people are in the minority and not indicative of the fan base as a whole and I also think that if this were any other program and players quit you would have some fans saying the same thing. Fan is short for fanatic and let's be honest fanatics are not normally logical in how they think. I read some of the replies on twitter to Horn yesterday and I often wonder if some of those people are actual fans of Carolina or if some of them are not fans of other teams and want to throw a little gas on the fire. It is not a good look either way, but social media as a whole has given a voice to many idiots these days.
Something I read yesterday said he would be cleared to come back if he wanted that he was not welcome in the past
Yet...he is unmeasurably more qualified than you are...HE...was a multi-sport high school athlete...basketball, baseball, football and track...walked on at Uga and became the defensive captain his senior year...earned a degree from Georgia and Masters in Education at Auburn...coached at Valdosta State, Auburn, LSU, Texas, Florida and South Carolina...for the Miami Dolphins in the NFL...has recruited, coached and sent dozens of athletes into the NFL...been a part of championship teams and programs for over twenty plus years...etc.
Yeah that was pretty much the gist of what I saw too.
I agree to an extent. I think that baggage will prevent us from going after him as hard as we should and also think Freeze feels that when he comes back to the SEC it will be with a bigger name like UT. Hope I'm wrong because he'd be my #1 choice far above any of the lower tier HCs or clemson assistants mentioned.
There's quite a bit if people start digging....this is not an easy decision if we could get this guy.
