Pat Forde slams Mullen

[GatorJ]

Dan Mullen’s perspective—again (13). If you want compelling evidence that the pandemic is making some smart people lose their minds, Mullen seems like a good place to start. He’s coached well (as usual) in 2020, but he sure hasn’t comported himself well. There was the time he helped escalate a bench-clearing altercation with Missouri, then walked to the locker room throwing his arms in the air like a wrestling heel. There was postgame petulance after the loss at Texas A&M, which led to a call to “pack the Swamp” for Florida’s next home game. And there was more postgame excuse-making Saturday night, when Mullen opined that "the best thing to do would have been to play less games because you seem to get rewarded for not playing this year.” Actually, Dan, the best thing to do is to beat bad teams when you play them.

But Mullen wasn’t done there. On Sunday, he tried to rationalize Wilson’s chucking of Kole Taylor’s cleat. “He made the tackle,” Mullen said. “I mean, part of the football move, the kid’s shoe was in his hand. He kind of threw it, jumped and celebrated with his teammates. I don’t think there was any intent to taunt. … It was a huge play, possibly a game-winning play. Threw a shoe, went to celebrate with his teammates. Unfortunately, it was a penalty.”

Yes, it certainly was a penalty. And no, it certainly was not a football move. It was a live-in-infamy move.

"I guess that's a penalty" “It’s a shame,” Mullen said

Ain't that the truth. Ogre out coached Mullen and motivated the heck out of his team.

My favorite Mullen line: “He kind of threw it.” Kind of? As if he needed another camera angle to convince himself it didn’t somehow happen by accident.

Forde’s right. Mullen has done a whole helluva lot to embarrass himself this season.

Dan is a nutless coward. That’s the root of his problem. Everything else is just a symptom

. Ogre out coached Mullen

That says it all.

Of course, Burp Bielema outcoached him, too.

Didn't read, and no matter how far he took his criticism of our numnuts of a coach and his staff, he didn't go far enough.

I just find it interesting that so many of us have been saying similar shyt about Cousin Eddie since he was an asst. coach here and as a head coach at Cowbell. Now that the quote/unquote "media gurus" are talking about him, all of sudden it springs into action and causes people to finally open their eyes? Oh well.

I am done with this *******. Maybe he leaves and takes the auburn job. Losing is ne thing. The absolute sewage that has come out of his mouth since sat night deserves an absolute ass chain from the AD. If I am the AD, I would cuss that MFer out up one side of the stadium and down the other. He needs to get his GD team in line or I would start cutting these MFers myself, starting with fat todd and marco.

That sounds unpleasant. And deserved.

Coach likes being the contrarian on the board.

There is absolutely nothing Forde said that was incorrect.
