I would think it would be that simple but Sr left the school to him and TRBC to Jonathan. I don’t know how much say he would have.

[stokesjokes]

Well, Jr has zero say with the school anymore and Jonathan is in a position of leadership.

Besides, it’s not about ownership of the school, it’s about ownership of the family name. Jonathan has equal claim to it. Maybe they should ask Gene. Or even @ballcoach15’s buddy TF.

[Just John]

Jr. is still a sad individual. In parts of this story he sounds like Jim Bakker after he crashed. He tries to take more credit for the school than his dad. He may have brought it into it's current form (construction is like art, his masterpiece ) but it took a founder to have the vision and give it a spiritual foundation. Afterall, Jr told us he had nothing to do with that. And we believe him.

[JK37]

It’s amazing what can be accomplished when no one cares who gets the credit.

This is a sad individual trying to ensure his life meant something positive, when unfortunately what he will be most remembered for are the voluntary misdeeds which removed him from authority and responsibility.

[Whatisthetruth]

Auburn made Freeze apologize for his boorish behavior and LU didn't. The current LU leadership is about as poor as it can get.

HUGH FREEZE APOLOGIZES FOR SENDING UNSOLICITED MESSAGES TO SEXUAL ASSAULT SURVIVOR

https://www.outkick.com/hugh-freeze-che ... -messages/

[BlueBlood]

Where did you see that Auburn made him do it?

[JK37]

Auburn didn’t per se. But he did offer an apology when asked about it.

[Purple Haize]

Where did you see that Auburn made him do it?

It’s the story floating around. Absolutely some accuracy to it. When he was being vetted this was a HUGE red flag. They hired a PR firm to deal with it. This is a no brainer solution.

[BlueBlood]

Auburn didn’t per se. But he did offer an apology when asked about it.

100% understood, but that is not what is purported above. I probably trigger too easily, but it's always a pet peeve of mine when a headline and an article don't match up.

Why didn't the LU leadership take it serious and do something about it if Auburn saw it as a red flag? Perhaps Prevo is color blind?

[thepostman]

Jr approved the Freeze hire FYI.

[flamehunter]

Jr approved the Freeze hire FYI.

This is concerning Freeze's messages to the LU assault case "survivor" which occurred after he was here. On Prevo's watch I believe. That's where the truth person is coming from.

[thepostman]

ahhh ok

Because it was a nothing burger, showing the DM is an attention seeker by the girl, nothing wrong with the DM, it wasn't threatening in any way. Now would it be better if your high profile employee ignored it and didn't do it? Absolutely, but nothing was threatening or harassment about it. I'd say "she posted something, I responded to it" this apologizing for saying stuff and apologizing for posting stuff is getting ridiculous. Never apologize

Very informative, Thank you! The only correction I see is that Beckles has been out of the CFO role with LCS for a number of years.

[Sly Fox]

Corrected! I am not going to sugarcoat it. This required some digging.
