His wife probably regrets that.

Life is full of irony. This is yet another example.
Everyone regrets their actions or words when they come back to bite them. What she said was what she meant. If she has regret, it doesn't change how she feels about our fans (that's us by the way). If she's smart (I don't think she is) she will keep a very low profile and I probably wouldn't recommend her reading this forum:wink2:.

She's obviously thin-skinned and has learned very little about football or football fans over the years. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Yeah, I don't really care what she thinks or has to say, or where she shops. But her husband better figure out how to recruit top 5 classes or she'll be bad-mouthing us in no time.

She is right. We don't tolerate people who can't score 30 points a game with our talent. We are not a team that is happy with tossing a coin and winning 17-14. We don't say, "Oh gosh, they tried and at least we kept it close when we lose 17-14." And we surely don't tolerate the occasional loss to Southern Alabama or Ga South.

Who doesn't know that?

That's probably coming irrespective of recruiting. Dan Mullen has never struck me as a championship coach. I see us regularly achieving 10 wins and the fan base being just as frustrated, maybe more because it feels like a big tease.

Edit: That's twice this morning I had another post pulled up ready to reply to and the reply instead went to a post that came in right after it, in this case Law's. Weird. And, no, I'm not that senile -- yet.

Exactly, I remember the scuttlebutt being how “standoffish” he could be.

Here’s a conundrum, what if his standoff nature relates simply to Jeremy Foley and Foley’s thoughts on football? could some of the complaints about Mullen’s negative attitude be sour grapes from Foley who people don’t trust with the sport? Does that mean people have to choose between Mullen and Foley?

:eek3:

Perhaps it was Urban wanting to be the single voice of his team.

And recruiting will only get better when our play and results improve, except if we are going to accept players who can't meet our academic and behavior standards. I hope those don't change.

It would amount to an upgrade but fall short of our goals.
I'm not sure that our goals and the Athletic Depts goals are NOT the same things.

I'm pretty sure they'd be comfortable with a 4 loss guy and probably wanted to keep Chump.

Something in all that about fire, and your face, and bridges, and your nose, and words for dinner, and who's paying the bills.

I might be in the same camp. Still struggling to get a good read on Stricklin.

Sad but true. And even more than being an upgrade for us, it would be a huge upgrade for Mullenz himself. Richt 83-37 in conference games, Mullen 33-39.
