"Bra the most trolling coach," another fan tweeted.

According to reports, Freeze went golfing 11 times in June. Many believe that he has ignored his recruitment duties at Auburn while pursuing his hobby.

According to On3 on Sunday, the Tigers’ 2026 recruiting class is ranked No. 80.

Lane Kiffin shared a tweet on Sunday with a picture of a 187.5-pound yellowfin tuna and tagged Freeze. It was in reference to Auburn's recent struggles with recruiting big fish or talent from high school.

The tweet about the tuna was regarding four-star offensive lineman JC Anderson as part of the Class of 2026, who committed to Ole Miss over Auburn.

Freeze, who has an 11-14 record across two years at Auburn, has come under scrutiny this offseason. The Tigers failed to qualify for a bowl game last season after posting just five wins.

If Auburn doesn't get off to a good start in the 2025 campaign, Freeze might be on the hot seat.
