I'm not trying to open up the whole Pro-Free/Anti-Free debate. For me, he wasn't my first choice. Really like him as a coach, but wasn't a fan of the baggage. Having said that, I have to relay a conversation I had a few days back at a family Christmas gathering. My nephew and his friend, both Auburn grads, were there and we got on the football talk.
First thing out of their mouths about U Free was, "The guy was convicted of sexual assault."
Sexual assault? No he wasn't.
Well, he struck a plea deal.
No he didn't. FYI, to strike a plea deal, you have to be charged with something. Where did you see this?
Well, all the girls I know hate him.
I guess they saw it on the internet, so it must be true. Who am I to question?
