Freese was a great hire for Ole Miss. When you spend twenty years at high schools or smaller schools in the southeast, you develop great relationships with prep coaches and administrators and they are indispensable resources for identifying young talent, getting you a foot in the door, and swaying those kids your direction.

I said from the beginning his family would not let him go that far from home. Same reason Caleb Brantley never leaves Florida

It's insane and I know the family part takes a heavy toll, but it's like when will you let your kid grow up?

4 Location does matter some kids want to stay home (Conners schools is Ole Miss pipe line)
5 playing time is available and the program is on the rise
6 Freeze is a very good recruiter
7. Mississippi has very good JUCO programs that Ole Miss has connections with
8 Freeze is a very good recruiter
9 academics- Hooks couldnt get into Auburn because of one class but he could get into Ole Miss (think his girlfriend might go to Ole miss as well) Daniel could not get into Florida but Ole miss is willing to take the shot he qualifies
10 Freeze is a very good recruiter

Oh please, Ole Miss will never win the SEC again and I wouldn't be surprised if A&M takes a step backward this year....

They have good looking girls on every campus, but if you've never been to Oxford you should go. It looks like a party at the playboy mansion in the grove on Saturdays.

I made apoint last time there to actually search for an unatractive girl in the grove. Coukdnt do it. Its like they hide them up in an underground bunker on gameday weekends. Amazing.

The first time I heard Freeze talk, he sounded exactly like a southern preacher. I bet that really helps him sell the program to recruits' parents. He sounds like he would recruit well.

These kid's and their families don't seem to mind leaving home when it comes times to declare for the NFL when they know some riches await or so they think in some cases
