Um no. They were close at Ole Miss and remained close after. See this Ross Dellenger article from 2 years ago.

FTA: “I always thought Hugh was a tremendous coach,” Orgeron said Monday. “I almost hired him as my offensive coordinator — probably should have.”

Freeze attributed the quick ascent in his career partly to Orgeron. He hired Freeze, then a high school coach, when he took over at Ole Miss in 2005. Orgeron described the Rebels leader as a master of the spread offense, a coach he should have promoted to offensive coordinator in 2006, Orgeron admitted.

The two are close enough to exchange text messages and calls. Heck, Freeze even called into question Ole Miss' firing of Orgeron.

“People are not patient,” Freeze said. “I really think that we had recruited well under Ed here, and it was close to turning a corner."
