Video: Hugh Freeze walks out mid-interview when asked about NCAA investigation
Words simply can’t describe how eager Hugh Freeze is to move on from the NCAA’s current investigation into his Ole Miss football program.
That being the case, Freeze felt the need to express that when asked about the case during the Region’s Tradition pro-am taking place Wednesday in Birmingham, Alabama. Freeze isn’t the only coach in attendance as Nick Saban, Dan Mullen, Kirby Smart, and Gus Malzahn are all there in addition to SEC legend Bo Jackson and league commissioner Greg Sankey.
Check out Freeze’s reaction to a simple question regarding the investigation. The Ole Miss coach leaves immediately without saying anything other than no.

It remains to be seen how, or if, the NCAA will punish Ole Miss following the school’s latest notice of allegations, however, there is likely to be some resolution by the time the upcoming season arrives. Ole Miss has yet to release its response to the NCAA’s latest notice of allegations, that’s the next step in the process. The school has 90 days to formally respond to the notice given in late February.
