BOL Round Table

I have no opinion on whether Ole Miss is cheating or not. Not in my wheel house. However you guys that are defending Ole Miss by equating Hugh Freeze with Nick Saban circa Jan 2008 are plum loco.

The reasons have been listed in other posts but the silliness of that assertion needs to be pointed out frequently. As far as I can tell, the biggest similarities are that they were both entering their second year at an SEC west program that had been moribund for years. That makes Freeze (and Saban) equivalent to Gerry DiNardo (LSU) in 96, Ed Orgeron (Ole Miss) in 2006, Mike Shula (Alabama) in 2004, or maybe Bear Bryant (Alabama) in 1959. I can see the equivalency among all of those coaches.

As for coaching history between Freeze and Saban let's play the matching game. I guess we'll match Ole Miss and Alabama. So perhaps experience at Arkansas St equals the Miami Dolphins? Let's pair Lambuth and LSU (they both do start with L). I guess working for Ed Orgeron was similar to learning with Bill Billichik. Think I'll stop here. Even an Auburn fan could see Saban in 2008 is just a wee bit more accomplished than Freeze.

How about big wins? What do you think is Freeze's best win? Miss St or Pittsburgh. Nick Saban had a better December than Freeze has had career.

Again I've got no problem if you want to challenge the posters questioning Ole Miss. But don't use Nick Saban and Alabama to somehow raise the Freeze/Ole Miss profile. That is a slap at Saban and a board full of Alabama fans.

Do some research before posting, pal. Robinson played defensive end at Georgia in 2009.

Montez was dismissed from Georgia in April 2010 after his second arrest in a three-month span, both on battery charges. He was a freshman.

I find it just as strange that people are defending Ole Miss as I do that people are accusing them of cheating with no proof. Does it seem weird that OM is getting this much love from out of state 5* players? Absolutely. Does anyone have proof they are cheating? Nope.

Ole Miss has Nkemdiche's brother and their mom is basically forcing them to play together.

Ole Miss signed Treadwell's teammate last year.

Tunsil has no actual interest in Ole Miss, 0, zilch, just having a fun weekend.

Conner has been an Ole Miss Lock since he was 14.

Chris Jones was an under-the-radar player that seems to be sticking to the only schools that gave him interest early in the process (the state schools Ole Miss and MSU). We didn't give him the time of day early in the process.
