Hugh Freeze’s role in the movie “Blind Side” has made him definitely recognizable around college football. This is not the reason why will know his name for years to come. Freeze can flat out coach football as he has Arkansas State on track to be in their first bowl game since entering the bowl subdivision in 2000. He won two state championships and had almost 100 wins as a high school coach. He then spearheaded Ole Miss’ recruiting efforts for two seasons that led to Houston Nutt’s early success at Ole Miss. He then took Lambuth University in Tennessee to the program’s best two season finishes in school history. At Arkansas State, his offense in 2010 set multiple team records before taking over as head coach in 2011. In 2011, Arkansas State is undefeated in the Sun Belt with only one test left on the season when they take on Louisiana-Lafayette on November 12. Arkansas State won 4 games in the previous two seasons before this year. Freeze is an energetic and innovative football coach that has a bright future. Arkansas State will not be Freeze’s last stop.
