Hugh Freeze will coach in The Alliance of American Football League. Here’s what the hell that is.

Early on Thursday afternoon, I awoke from a short nap. I was working from home and figured I grab a couple of Zs during lunch because, well, I’m an adult and I can nap during the day if I want.

I rolled over and gabbed my phone, which greeted me with the following notification from ESPN: “Ex-Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze to be OC of Arizona Hotshots of The Alliance of American Football.”

My half-asleep brain made several feeble attempts to organize and analyze the information it had just been fed. Freeze was becoming an offensive coordinator at one of the Arizona schools?
