The pursuit of Hugh Freeze has been “quashed” by Tennessee powers, according to John Brice. That confirms what we kind of figured to be true this morning and last night, with Hugh Freeze seeming to begin to pursue other opportunities.
Brice dropped plenty more information in this tweet, however. He included three more names to watch, saying that Tennessee has interest Mike Yurcich, Neal Brown and Kendal Briles.
Brown and Briles are the interesting mentions here. Brown is considered by most to be a top head coaching candidate after building Troy into a consistent ten game winner.
