Although football is a game that rewards patience, it is also one that devours timidity alive. As we approach the second weekend of November, another former Power Four head coach is out of a job. Hugh Freeze was fired by Auburn early Sunday afternoon, joining the likes of Deshaun Foster, Brent Pry, Mike Gundy, Sam Pittman, James Franklin, Billy Napier, and Brian Kelly in the unemployment line.
Freeze's termination brings us to eight Power Four teams without a full-time head coach, as well as 11 overall with Trent Bray, Trent Dilfer and Jay Norvell being let go at the Group of Six level.
