With more than a decade of experience as an FBS head coach, Hugh Freeze remained firm on a long-held stance Monday: spring games can, in some ways, be a waste.
“ Not a wasted day for the fans or for recruiting or any of that, but for the practice itself, you want to make all 15 of our practices count,” Freeze said. “And that's a very difficult setting for us to really do what we want to do.”
Freeze is a proponent of playing another program for the spring game, he said, charging fans a minimal amount to attend, and giving the money back to charity. It’s not the first time Freeze has made that stance public. When Ole Miss didn’t host a spring game in 2016, Freeze also said he wished his program would take on the format.
On Monday, Freeze said the concept is one he has tried to get traction on multiple times before, but to no avail. “I think Jarquez is special, I do,” Freeze said. “I think he's probably the best running back I've ever coached, truthfully. I haven't had a lot of great ones, but I think he's a really, really good running back.”
