Bo Wallace, the head coach of the Auburn football team, has criticized Hugh Freeze.
In Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Alabama, on Saturday, Auburn fell short against Arkansas 24–14.
Payton Thorne, Freeze’s current quarterback, was thrown under the bus after the game. Reporters were given hints by the seasoned coach that Thorne wasn’t the best candidate.
Freeze remarked, “I know there are people open, and I know we’re running the football.” “We need to find a running back who can hold onto the ball and a guy who won’t throw it to the other team.”
Wallace, an Ole Miss player under Freeze from 2012 to 2014, was not amused by the latter’s remarks. Wallace criticized his former coach on X.
“It’s getting to the point where he’s benched so many quarterbacks that maybe nobody wants to play for him,” Wallace wrote. “When I injured my shoulder, his offensive really helped me score points. However, why is it always the fault of someone else when there is a loss? However, I like to watch the news conferences after a victory simply to see how often the word “I” is uttered. thank you for everything he did for me; nonetheless, my son wouldn’t be playing for him.
Wallace said that he will “keep in his back pocket” for the time being an unpleasant narrative he has regarding Freeze. However, the Ole Miss alum also disclosed that in order to “get that man his money,” Freeze would sometimes have him play through discomfort.
Wallace was Ole Miss’s quarterback during a season when the team finished 24-15 and qualified for a bowl game every year. However, it’s evident that Wallace has carried some resentment for Freeze ever since.
