    Butters may be headed to Oregon State; will double as mascot

    1. I am not "2222" or any other poster with associated with any 4 digit string of 2's. :facepalm: 2. WTF / who the F is "2222". I did a forum search and could not find a 2222 to verify who I am not. 3. Dude, you are really obsessive. :lol: I guess if this 2222 fixation gets you past the...

    Butters may be headed to Oregon State; will double as mascot

    Is he capable of bringing a bunch of 2 and 3 start recruits at OSU to 4-5 loss season? Perhaps. That's probably good enough for Beaver-Land.

    Butters may be headed to Oregon State; will double as mascot

    Good for him. He may actually do OK there. I think he is probably a decent coach, in the right situation (which clearly wasn't UF, and probably not any big time program) Seems like Oregon St is often the destination for coaches looking to "rehabilitate".

    Coaching Record comparison

    Dan Mullen record 69-46 (.600) 5-2 bowl games 33-39 SEC Steve Spurrier Record at South Carolina 86-49 (.637) 5-4 bowl games 44-40 SEC NO, NO, NO, the point is NOT Mullen is as or will ever be as good as Spurrier at UF. However, some here characterize Mullen has having a mediocre record at...

    UF Announces Dan Mullen as HC $36 Million over 6 Years

    My recollection was Stoops seriously considered the deal, at least the first time. Shanahan really didn't. Foley's problem is he thought he could hire Billy Donovan every time, an up and coming energetic diamond in the rough. Looks like he may have done it twice in basketball but whiffed 3...

    PD's Postulations on Chip Kelly debacle and Mullen hire

    I think UF and TN have comparable expectations, I just think UF has a greater chance of occasionally achieving those inflated expectations. TN hasn't been sh1t in 20 years after one national championship. Take out their NC and 4 years of Peyton you really have mostly an average SEC team. I...

    PD's Postulations on Chip Kelly debacle and Mullen hire

    My how things have changed in here over a couple of days. I agree with most of the article, but I'm surprised it is getting so much props in here. Seems like cooler heads are prevailing. Surprised this these quotes didn't cause some in here to go apoplectic:

    Dan Mullen, the 6 million dollar man

    Was that a Foley press conference? :lol:

    Dan Mullen, the 6 million dollar man

    To reiterate, yeah, I f'd up my OP.

    Mullen's Minimum Number of Wins His First Season is 10

    I would hope his ability to get talent and succeed is greater at UF than MSU. MSU is second fiddle even in the state of Mississippi.

    Dan Mullen, the 6 million dollar man

    If that is true (and it is consistent with other things I heard of about 6 million / year) that is kind of odd - seems like Kelly would have been a back the truck up full of money offer. But at the end of the day I don't think he wanted to be here, and I'm not sure 7-9 million/ per year would...

    I thought it was cool how he could run 60 mph and his hair not get messed up.

    UF Announces Dan Mullen as HC $36 Million over 6 Years

    I think AD's get gunshy after being left at the alter once or twice. I am sure Foley was after going on the worldwind tour and then slam dunked by Stoops and Shanahan. Now SS got dumped by the top two picks. I am not sure how many swing and misses one should go through before landing on a...

    Dan Mullen, the 6 million dollar man

    OK, I stand corrected. The $500k was fake news. That was his MSU buyout. As to MSU paying $6 large: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2745865-dan-mullen-reportedly-could-get-6-million-salary-to-remain-with-mississippi-st

    Dan Mullen, the 6 million dollar man

    For all those huffing and puffing about the 6 million per year: 1. He was making over 4 at MSU, and apparently they were contemplating upping it to close to 6 2. Like him or not, at least we know that UF is now willing to pony up and pay the big bucks. 3. Mostly importantly, his buyout is...

    Urban buzz

    Why would he leave? He was paid as well as most SEC coaches. Unless someone was going to step up and pay him a tier one salary he had no reason to go. Is he a tier one coach? I don't know, that remains to be seen. Like I said, I'm 50/50 on him, but willing to give the dude a chance.

    The Dumbest Comment I've Seen All Day

    So there are only 5 coaches that UF could take (Kelly, Frost, Norvell, Campbell, Strong) that are not "gutless"? I am sure if we hired Charley Strong the meltdown would have been just as epic.
