My report from attending the press conference, and apology
Moderator: Rebel Security
Guys and gals of rebelfaithful, I have come to eat my crow. I admit I wasn't happy about this hire and I voiced that opinion on here many times..............but I was wrong. I was very impressed by what I saw and heard at the presser. First of all, Freeze's love for our university was apparent from the start. Second of all, he said that he will demand that our players have accountability and that if one person from one position group (such as rbs) messes up, they all get punished. Third of all, he said our offense will be a no huddle wide open offense that is going to try to get over 90 snaps a game. He said our defense is going to be a monster that is dying to hit somebody. Here is another good point that Mike Glen from Fedex brought up at the presser: he said that the search firm they used talked to Freeze and then called him and said (and I quote) " Archie and Mike, I have to tell you something. I have placed over 60 coaches in division one jobs over the years so I have a good idea of who the have and have nots are. This guy, Hugh Freeze, is a have. Ya'll have hired yourself a gem of a coach! Rebfaithful....................as bad as it pains me to say it..........I could hear success in this guys voice and I could see it in his eyes. We made the right choice. Now let the bad mouthing begin..............

Thanks! I will have to check again later. They haven't posted the video or the transcript yet. I couldn't see it live, but everyone I have talked with that did seems impressed or at the least, feeling better than they did prior to it. Hopefully we will all be impressed again this time next year! Hotty Toddy!

I too, was at the press conference. Check out Rebels247.com to read the latest on the hire. Also, you can watch the p.c. on Rebelvision. It's still there.

In my experience the real good ones don't even much like to talk.
