Dafuq has he accomplished?

He has gone once in three years to Atlanta to get gangraped by Trailerbammer, which McElstain did twice in his first two years.
I said QB accomplishments not team accomplishments. He's also been coaching more than 3 years. He's coached 1 Heisman winner and should have another this year.

If you would rather have Butters and his Treon led powerhouse offense good luck.

A few weeks ago, I saw a gator beat writer say Mullen is more like Chip Kelly. He enjoys coaching and the Xs and Os, but dislikes recruiting. If that is true, Mullen will never have an elite class.

I think it’s pretty evident that he does not love recruiting. His relentless effort mantra is more do what I say not what I do

Im not sure what he is relentless about either. it isn't recruiting, no doubt.

it sure isn't game prep. we always look like we haven't practiced football at all in the first half of every game. we certainly haven't watched film because teams do what they always do on film and we act like we've never seen it before.

relentlessly cashing checks?

relentlessly taking vacations? now that part we achieve.

it's pretty easy to say all that winner stuff; it's a lot harder to do it.

there's a reason Dan Dullen has been a coach for 12 seasons and never won a trophy.

Until last week, against Uk and uga, I feel like we’ve scored on every first possession all season. And if nothing else, outside of maybe 3-4 games, we’ve completely owned the first half. So I’m not sure what you’re even talking about with your “game prep” ramble.

And for your 12 years comment, you think that has anything to do with being at Msu for 9 of those years? For that matter, including 2001, Spurrier went 12 years without a trophy to finish his career, and only only had 1 in his final 16 seasons as head coach. Do you think that would’ve happened if all those years were spent at UF?

Look, no one here told you to drink a gallon of rum on Thursday in between depos, so don’t bring that negativity around.

Sounds like a really good offensive coordinator to me. Hmmmm

Seems Swonkey's job is to make Mullen's dream-job Dan's nightmare.

We got Bowman. He’s not the bruiser you describe but a great get. As for DT - are you saying another plug like the Armwood kid? I wouldn’t argue if so, but I do like the one we got.

Brother,

I don't care what it takes. I am saying it is sad from the hash mark we can't punch it in. And our Defenses can't stop a simple run play...especially on 3rd and Grantham.

It will be obvious what we need Saturday
Prime Time...Tune in...you won't need notes...it will be seared into your psyche

SOS never really like recruiting. Our issue is what someone said earlier...maybe Donk...We don't have enough support like OSU or Bamma. You can let your coaches recruit more but you need to take all the other minutiae off their plate.

Mullen is a better OC...If you like his system...I don't...Trask was fun to watch...Those days are gone, unless we get another Tebow or Dak...AND those are few and far between.

I think the Spurrier recruiting thing has always been a little bit overblown. It may not have been his favorite thing but he liked identifying talent and wanted to win with that as well. He just wasn’t what you see today with his message. Very much more get on board or I’ll move on. Just a different era.

But to your point about the support staff were lacking, That’s one of the things that some of us here have been harping on. You can blame Mullen to an extent, but the university is not giving him the same support that those other programs are getting. Not Osu, not Ala, not Lsu, not uga, and probably not even Oregon. What do all those teams have in common? They’re the teams in front of us in this year‘s recruiting class. It’s just not as simple as “he isn’t good”. Some things may be self inflicted, but a lot of it is not. Like him or not, he isn’t playing with the same advantages. Makes you wonder if that played a role in our two best coaches growing tired of being here.

@AlligatorArmy: Another late addition who's going to get a lot of sleeper buzz. Might be worthwhile hype in this instance, given size and athleticism.

6-foot-7, 295-pounder... Savage can get him to 320-340.. Can keep our QB Safe in the pocket and get a 2yard push

We could use some addition by subtraction, Marco and Stiner, for example.

Can one of y'all explain it to me?

I am clueless on how the figure Total # and each season...and COVID makes it worse.

I wish they would say 90 Total with 10 walk-ons...Period. Allow 1 Free Transfer...Any Reason. If 1 leaves...you can add 1.
