The hiring of a coach at a minor D1 college football program is not newsworthy in itself. What is of interest is the question on why would a university that supposedly promotes Christian values hire a coach who has moral baggage?

Saul had “moral baggage” and the Lord turned him into the Apostle Paul.

You might want to hear from Freeze himself, start at 11 mins in:

He steered Ole Miss to a 39-25 mark with four bowl appearances during his five seasons there.

Freeze has some baggage. Hope he's learned from his mistakes. As far as Xs and Os though, he is a great coach.

Hugh Freeze is his real name?
It sounds like a Lego character.
Well anyway, good luck to team Liberty!

As to your question on why hire someone with Moral Baggage.
Perhaps his was the least flawed resume of them all.
Most of us have done something we’re not proud of during the process of growing up and making your way through life.
Perhaps some Sins are less egregious than others, when all options are considered.

I’m a big fan of Freeze for finally turning Ole Miss around (and beating Alabama!), I just wish he wasn’t a slime ball.

[MuttTheHoople]

Freeze was hiring hookers to service recruits.

This is hugh and free.

Why did Turner Gill retire? Hope it’s not health issues.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Yeah, that was my thought

Freeze @ Liberty? Whoda believed that?

Hopefully Hugh has mended his ways.
