The Flames coach is the favorite to land the vacant Tigers coaching position.
“Is the job everyone is talking about one that I would have an interest in talking with? Sure. That doesn’t mean they have offered me a job. Who knows where that’s headed but I’ve always said I love being here on the mountain. I’m happy here, but I’m not going to sit here and say to our kids it’s just absolutely false that there’s no interest in it. The part that is false is that there has been no offer made to me, nor have I accepted anything.
Freeze was also asked whether or not he believes that the coaching rumors surrounded him affected his team’s play in Saturday’s blowout loss. “I haven’t been offered a job but it certainly was hard to refute that report and it definitely was bothering some people. Just hate it,” Freeze said. Following his unceremonious exit from Ole Miss in 2016, Freeze returned to the coaching profession in 2019 as Liberty’s head whistle. He’s compiled a 48–34 record at the school, with three seasons of eight wins or more. His best year came in 2020, when Liberty went 10–1 and won the Cure Bowl for the second consecutive season.
Liberty also won the LendingTree Bowl in 2021, leaving Freeze with a 3–0 mark in bowl games as Liberty will prepare for a fourth in his tenure next month.
