it's going to be interesting to see how well Strickland weathers this. I guess he figured that he will shove it down our throats and we'll love it regardless.

It's hard to imagine that the people he spoke to with UAA and inside the athletic department didn't let him know how much Mullen is hated.
Law, I don't think Stricklin survives this. He has badly misjudged everything in this process.

Well - I just got home. I heard about this when it happened, but was out of the house.

So - I'm ****ing done.

I hope - really, honestly hope - that I'm wrong and I'll happily eat crow if I am, but I'm pretty pissed at this hire. I hope the bulls are raging at everyone in the UAA that will listen, because this is NOT a hire that the alumni are going to be excited about. Hell, most of us are angry about it.

Mullen is the epitome of mediocre. Sub-500 in the SEC, absolutely **** against ranked teams. What's scary is that he's still an upgrade from Butters - enough that he'll win JUST ENOUGH to make him hard to get rid of. 8-10 wins every year, mixed bag over the rivals.. never a championship. He's like Richt - and we were THRILLED to keep Richt around so long at UGA.

As this year wound on, I stopped caring. If I couldn't watch a game, I didn't even bother recording it. I'd check the scores to see how badly we lost. Not sure I'll even start watching until he somehow surprises me and we look like an actual team again. Then again, it'll just be setting me up for anger and disappointment when he has his bi-annual brainfart game and loses one he shouldn't.

Well, see South Alabama is under rated and you know midline or something and he only had eight years and needed more to get HIS players or something retarded like that. /pump

One of last year's wins is against Samford and yet.. they scored 41 points against Mississippi State's defense.

I put the text not the twitter links bc I wonder how long those will be up there. I wonder if Noah is drunk. I wonder about his supposition that Spurrier may have wanted to coach maybe Spurrier just didn't tell Noah no. I do think that Spurrier should have at least been one of the most important evaluators of potential candidates. Whatever input given by him was obviously disregarded.

Quez doesn't think much of the hire either. Those two are the only older Gators that are very active on Twitter.
And Quez is an OC in HS and Noah does who knows what. Yet numerous Gators have come out in support. Tebow, David Nelson, Troupe, Jarvis Moss. Top two targets said no. One will probably return to his alma mater and the other is a douche.

Guys, Ive had enough.

But I will say this, if you arent calling or sending letters (email ok but follow with a real letter they "count" more) to UAA, you are pissing in the wind.

Get it done tomorrow.

Can Mullen turn Toney into Harvin2.0? Or how about Massey? They both look the part and have great speed, not Harvin speed but close.

God I’m praying on anything to get excited about this panic hire.


I'm wondering if he can turn Toney into a QB, cause I think he's our only option in that offense

No chance Toney can take the pounding. Hell he cant take the pounding of the two carries a game he has been getting.

It takes a 250lb horse to run Shyttersfull offense, a real 1950s throwback veer QB.

Eric Crouch would have been a real fit.

Replying to @Ayers2404
Because we made another bad decision. We keep having these every two-four years and im over it. We continue to let the wrong people make decisions.


Just wondering, is Brindise coaching anywhere? If he is how's he looking? "Fat Dawg" not impressed either. lol
