Auburn fans firing shots at John Cohen, football program now that Hugh Freeze is gone

Auburn fans called for Hugh Freeze's head, and that's what they received. But now, the Tigers' faithful are just as upset with the handling of the firing itself, placing all of their frustrations on Athletic Director John Cohen.

In the statement announcing Freeze's departure from the program, Cohen made a few strange choices in his verbiage, including describing the former head coach as a "man of integrity" but not actually thanking him for his work or time with the program.

Immediately, fans started ripping into Cohen for his handling of the situation, and instead of celebrating Freeze's departure, they simply shifted their anger to another target.
