He's not making coaching replacements because he's not going to be on the coaching staff.
Did you see how like us, Nebraska fired some assistant coaches this week? Then their AD came out and said that Frost would be back next year. Remember when Stricklin did the same and came out and assured everyone MuLLLLLen will be back next year? Me either, because he didn't say it because he knows he's not going to be back.
I'll remind everyone that he did just that a while back for Mike White when that dude was taking serious heat to close out the season in typical mehhhh fashion. Strick came out and said MW will be our HC for a long time, gave him an actual, real vote of confidence.
So why not this time if Mullen will be here next year as well. There's a lot more pressure on him, and a lot more folks who are a lot more passionate about wanting him out, so if he's not going to be terminated, why doesn't Scott come out and say so and get some of that pressure off him? He did it before under much less serious circumstances so why not now?
I think Strick is on the fence right now, and the next 3 games will help him determine which way to go. For that reason I am very confident mullen is gone, bc hes going to suck in all 3 of those games. And granthem isnt around anymore to be the fall guy (even though he sucks just as much). We will probably win this weekend, but it will be an ugly unsatisfying win, but we drop at least 1 of the final 2 and my money says we drop both. FSU is much improved from earlier and while usually losing, they are playing teams close. They were in it against NC state in the 4th - NC state would dispatch this gators team without much difficulty. Mullen is done.
And if by chance Scott is an even bigger moron than we believe and actually retains this dope despite the body of evidence screaming for termination, we can all take solace knowing that about 5 games into next year Mullen AND Scott will be in the unemployment line and we at least have a chance at getting someone competent to make the next hire.
Frankly I'm almost inclined to hope for the latter of the 2 scenarios b/c if stricklin is the guy hiring the next ball coach there's a significantly greater than 50% chance we find ourselves back in this same spot 2-3 yrs from now.
