I'm personally happy about Tunsil's decision... I may be the only one... lol.

Tunsil isn't going to UGA, FSU or Bama. So why should we care??

Ole Miss, besides this sudden recruitment splurt, is like what?? The 5th best SEC West team???

If all these recruits were going to Bama, then I'd be worried, because ultimately we'd have to play them in the SEC Championship.

Ole Miss getting more recruits means more competition for teams in the West. I, for one, would like to see Bama and LSU worry about another team in the West besides each other.

I don't think anyone is slandering any recruits, just questioning how a bottom-dwelling SEC team is attracting more 5-star recruits than have ever even attended there. Eli Manning may be the only one they ever had. I'm sure there are others that had grade issues. Nothing against Freeze, but they have had bigger name coaches than him that failed.

Y'all sound like a bunch of Kansas Jayhawk and NC Tar Heel fans when some unknown small time basketball coach from Marshall came to no name nobody basketball program in Gainesville and brought in super recruits.

Hugh can cheat but I think he's making it too blatant....

An "I got your back" statement maybe?

Good point. Would like to see Bama beat up a little after a few of their wins, instead of cruising through their division.

I won't make accusations, but I will say that any time a historically mediocre program, who has little to sell, who's never had a history of bringing in 5-star recruits, suddenly starts to turn guys who were barely even on the radar, with no clear reason, something is almost always up.

Memphis in basketball, Oregon in football now, UNC in football under Davis and yes, even UF in the early 80s.

Ole Miss was the #40 overall class last year on Rivals with an average 2.95 star rating. Suddenly, they're the #11 class with a 3.39 average star rating. An almost half-star average rating increase is unheard of, especially for a team that went 6-6 with a somewhat unproven head coach.

Either Freeze is by far the best recruiter in college football or something is up.

SCREW HIM! I guarantee you he wont put his pay-check where his mouth is on this. Coaches that violate (not saying he has violated anything) should all be fined their entire last year's pay-check along with the other violations any other coach in question might commit.

I'm not saying that he (HF) has done anything wrong, but coaches, all coaches that have dirty programs and get caught should pay fines with their own money.

I am not saying they arent cheating because most programs are doing something illegal. But when you actually step back and look at their class who did they cheat to get? Almost every big name recruit they have got has a big connection to the program

A lot of coaches and fans swear Donovan is cheating.

I guess you are completely discounting the intangibles or psyche that has an effect on organizations or teams. It can have a hugh impact...just ask the Dawgs with UF and Spurrier's run. Sometimes history can be a huge factor on future teams even if the players are completely new. Until UF won in Starkeville last in 2009 it had been over 20 years since we beat them in Starkeville and I think it would be fair to say that we probably had the better team each time we played. Do you think when the Cubs fell apart against the Marlins so close to the World Series that their fragile psyche due to an organizations struggling for so many years did not play apart in their demise? Look how long it took the Red Sox to overcome the Yankees....the sports psyche can be fragile and difficult to put back together.

Cheating to get who? Who with any credibility is saying this? Don't you dare point a finger at Donovan to make your point about some unfounded opinion by some random people on a message board. This would be a reprimand worthy post if I was a moderator.

I didn't say he was cheating. People have said it in the past. People have also said he is great at bending the rules. Who with credibility is saying Freeze is cheating? The whole point is people are making baseless claims.

I think those stats are total BS. Both Florida and Ole miss are run by different people now and none of the players are the same.
