Description

When asked if he’d consider giving up playcalling and becoming more of a CEO-style head coach, Hugh Freeze’s answer didn’t sound like someone ready to hand over the reins — but he did say that “everything is on the table to be evaluated.”

We break down what that really means. Would Freeze’s job actually be more enjoyable and sustainable if he focused on leadership instead of the week-to-week grind of calling plays? Could that shift extend his longevity at Auburn?

Plus, we dive into Neal McCready’s viral comments that Auburn “has an Auburn problem” when it comes to coaches not finding consistent success. Is there truth to that? What are the underlying dynamics inside the program — and does something deeper need to change?
