The best thing that Jenkins ever did was to launch Tyrone. It was the first thing he did when he took over as president.
It took stones because Ty just finished the third year of a five year deal, and all the previous coaches were given at least five years. Douche bag AD Kevin White made rumblings of racism, but Jenkins stuck to his guns.
But times have changed, and now Jenkins and the boys are as woke as they come, so it would kill them to fire Freeman. They will hold out as long as possible.
