Not sure why that last thread got locked but I'm pretty sure it wasn't this conversation.
Theo theo theo. You're falling for the old math game again aren't you? The how can they fire a 9 or 10 win coach game right? it's because the nine or ten win coach today is not a nine or ten win coach when 10 wins was a good coach. A 10 win coach today is yesterday's 8-4 coach. 8 win coach today is yesterday's 7- 5 coach.
Jackie Sherrilll at Mississippi State was a competitor in the west pretty much every year. He was not one step above a doormat like Mullen is. Yes, Sherrill got old and had a few bad years in the end. However he won pieces of the SEC West and went to the championship game. I dont know why you dont have those listed. Mullen never will.
Go back thru Sherrill's .500 record, add the four directional school wins that Mullen has per year and tell me what his record is.
Every year Mullen plays four directional schools and Kentucky and starts the year 5-0. This isn't the way it used to be in SEC football. Before all the television money made games against baby seals fashionable and profitable, most teams only had one or two. And they only had 10 game seasons not 12.
Since you left it out I presume on purpose what is Sherill's SEC record versus Mullens? Going to make me look it up?
We know no one wants to talk about Mullins record versus ranked teams.
I will clean this up some later.
And you start with 5 wins so long as you can manage to beat directional schools and kintucky.It is if you’re getting $4mm a year & no pressure from the admin or fans as long as you win an average of 7-8 games each season. He’s got it made.
All of this. The Mullen talk is completely lazy. And welcome to the world of blogging, real journalism is dead.Again, those saying it's going to be Mullen, and there are a lot of writers suggesting that, know less about this subject than the guy who changes my oil. It's amazing how utterly lazy these guys are. Even just a little investigating before they write an article would have debunked the whole Mullen thing.
And while on the subject of lazy writers, I've seen at least a dozen articles on the firing that look like they were all written by the same guy. It's rare anymore when I read an article that doesn't just list the obvious with nothing new or insightful. No behind the scenes looks or information you couldn't get from Yahoo. And on top of that, most of the time words are misspelled and improper English is used. It's pitiful.
Sadly, a lot of the poor editing comes from major sites like Sports Illustrated, ESPN and major newspapers. Hell, Jimmy Olsen could win a Pulitzer in today's journalistic environment.All of this. The Mullen talk is completely lazy. And welcome to the world of blogging, real journalism is dead.
Good point.Sadly, a lot of the poor editing comes from major sites like Sports Illustrated, ESPN and major newspapers. Hell, Jimmy Olsen could win a Pulitzer in today's journalistic environment.
Our recruiting, would take a huge hit. Which it hasn't exactly been that great the past 3 yearsA Mullen hire would be catastrophic.
Serious question...would you know who the hell the wife of a coach is in public...on her own?
I find it hard to believe that people were berating her because 'they didn't score 40 points' so bad that she couldn't go to Publix.
And she's the wife of a coordinator. Not the HC's wife. Who does she think she is? Of course she is the wife of a HC now, but she wasn't back then. I can only imagine what her ego is like now.
