Great point. Unfortunately this will buy more time for mediocrity. After Grantham is again exposed as a disaster next year, Dan the Man gets to hire a new guy and then "that will fix all the problems." So now its what, three more years of Darth Vader costumes and nikes.
I give credit to Mullen for turning around McElwain's mess...program rebuilding...three NYD 6 bowls....showing signs of maybe getting closer to top 5 classes (but not yet).....but this crap show he gave us after beating UGA has put him back at square one.... and his weird calls and comments...
Maybe Mullen got full of himself, but I can't be the only gator with a positive outlook that went to having serious questions about the guy after what I've seen the last month. Did he think beating UGA was all he needed to do this year?
Even with the turnovers, the defense looks the same. Wide open guys, too many people on the field, just the same old Grantham crap. Maybe they win 70 to 68 in the end, but this guy's defense is still confused too often...way too often.
Can't wait for Mullen to justify keeping Grantham after another debacle. Pathetic second half defensive performance on the way and maybe much worse until they hit 60 and play the subs.
How Mullen handled this game is a game changer to my own outlook. They should have been frothing at the mouth to get at these ashcats in the first place. And I don't think I could have imagined certain coaches making a two loss team in the playoff remark to ESPN before the friggin game. WTH...
I wouldn't have exactly been a sunshine pumper before last Saturday, but how Mullen handled things since the UGA win has definitely flipped the script for this fan. Number one, its obvious that Kirby's apparent stupidity may have cost them that game. Even a mediocre QB hits some of the wide...
When Florida was mediocre at best in Muschamp's first year in 2011, LSU was overjoyed to humiliate Florida and rub their noses in in it.... Ruthless, like Meyer and Spurrier.
Last night is for me when I realized Mullen doesn't have that same fire. I still hold out hope. Maybe he gets a d...
Mullen has publicly flipped a bird to gator fans in the past with his mouth. This hire will really p* people off and goodbye to half of this recruiting class.....but thanks for the advice on taking a deep breath.
