The Coaching Search Thread

I don't want Mullen at any price. He publicly indicated he was not interested so he should not be interested. And 7M is way too much for any coach.

That said I root for the Gators, I can't always stand to watch them though.

Again, I'd rather poach a coordinator like Georgia did and roll the dice. We could have Smart, we could have Chimp, who knows? But of the established names who are willing to take the job, Mullen is on the top of that list. Ask Tennessee if they want Mullen or Schiano.

He did say that publicly while he was HC at Mississippi State. Do you think he would have said ohhhhh HELL YEAH I WANT THAT JOB!!! Don’t beat me up he’s not my choice either. But just because he said that doesn’t mean he wasn’t always interested

ChiefGator said:

I believe he said that quite recently, and no I don't expect him to say anything. when you say no that should mean NO. Perhaps my sense of ethics is different than his, if I say I am not interested in a job that I understand I mean exactly that. Now perhaps some time later I might change my mind but not days.

I think no matter who it is, that’s a tough spot to be put in. Reporters asking if you’re interested in a job opening in the same conference you’re already coaching in is not a question any coach wants to be asked I’m sure

I agree so no comment is my official stand, or I don't talk about hypotheticals.

I know people on here are saying Mullen can’t recruit. But Mullen’s name being associated with the job has gotten Copeland to re-commit. Just saying....

I get that none of us really like this. But if you idiots start harassing everyone before this new regime even starts, we’ll never get another good coach again. Just shut the **** up and see what happens then if the first year or two are bad then we can run em out of town.

Agreed we could have hired schiano. I’d rather have Mullen over someone like him
