Mullen 2. Urbs 0. Keep it up Dan.
Urban had the option to restrict his transfer to certain schools, right? Usually done for same conference and future opponents, but some coaches take it to an extreme. Maybe Urban steered him towards his friend Dan and away from the hated rivals in the state of Florida.

Once he saw that Emory was lost to Bama, he might even have helped there. Certainly doesn't like Bama.

Nice to have another connection to STA as well. I don’t like that they compete with public schools for championships but they do attract elite players consistently.

There’s obviously the Jake Allen connection at play here, but Emory mentioned that Grimes was one of the guys he would try to convince to come here. He mentioned Grimes and a few other names on Zach Abolverdi’s podcast from a few days ago, so I wouldn’t be surprised if EJ was also In Trevon’s ear as well.

A great talent at a position of great need - check. Didn't go to Miami as one know-it-all on another site insisted - check. Urban aside, TOSU is a greasy, bug infested skank with multiple STDs and depriving them of anything is a huge plus - check. Looks like all positives and no negatives to me.

Doc Holliday used to say that we recruit the coaches and the schools more than the kids. Hopefully his protege Jujuan is passing that to this staff. We need to get back in the position of having first pick at the powerhouse programs instead of getting leftovers that we have to fight Kentucky and Indiana for.

That QB Penix from Tampa just picked Indiana over FSU last week. We got EJ. Mullen>Taggart so far. How long before FSU turns into a Chump/Butters cesspool?

I won't be surprised to see us add Penix or someone like him still.

Rivals did a top 10 of coaches who made immediate impacts during the early signing period. Mullen was 1 and Bill T was all the way at 8. Kelly was at 7
