The Auburn American football team coach, Hugh Freeze, has been relieved of his duties due to an excessive passion for golf. Despite his past successes, the team only achieved 15 victories against 19 losses under his leadership over three seasons. The resignation followed a defeat to the University of Kentucky team with a score of 10-3, marking the fifth loss in six games after a successful start to the season. Sources from CBS Sports report that failures on the field were not the only reasons for his dismissal. Freeze was often spotted on golf courses even in the midst of the NCAA season. Rumors suggest he spent more time on golf than working on improving the team's performance. One Auburn benefactor noted him on a golf course before an important game, where he was simply watching other players. Upon the conclusion of his duties, Freeze will receive a compensation of 15.8 million dollars. D.J. Durkin has been appointed as the interim head coach. The full report is available on the CBS Sports website.
