It only worked because of three reasons. 1.) Tebow 2.) Pouncey Twins 3.) Percy Harvin.No. That's not me talking. That's the 33-39 SEC record talking. Good God, this guy is 1970's retro offense. Gator nation is going to break their jaws yawning at the stuff EVERYONE else can figure out.....
I know this has probably been said a thousand times already in this thread...but why would Mullen take a lateral move???
Seriously this will not end well. No chance at all. His wife says we're so crazy that she has to shop in Orlando. AND Mullen calls us a lateral move to Miss State..We haven't even gotten into the fact that there's no way this will be "fun". Stricklin said he wants Gator football to be fun again. Then he chooses the least "fun" guy he possibly could. The only way this makes sense is if Scott Stricklin really hates gator football and is actively trying to destroy it. Otherwise why does this hire make any sense???
Good points however please see his record as a head coach. Not very good, and that is over 9 years. He will be ok, mediocre. I dont think that is what we want...especially at the bargain basement price of 7 million.Long time lurker here. I wanted to run this up the flagpole.
I'm not a huge fan of the hire, but it's what I've expected from day one, so I've wrapped my head around it. Allow me to make the case.
1. Meyer's pre-UF success involved a partnership with Mullen. Impressive records, offenses, QBs.
2. He was UF's OC for four seasons. Offense improved every year.
2005-Early struggles, Leak is not an option QB, Mullen cobbles together some solutions, Outback Bowl, success.
2006-Mullen recruits/develops the GOAT option QB and weaves him expertly into a hybrid offense of his own design, natty.
2007-Mullen's QB in full control, record setting offense, Heisman.
2008-Offense is a runaway train, should've been another Heisman, natty.
3. The moment Mullen leaves UF the offense, even with TT at the helm, regresses.
4. Mullen has elevated MSU and probably reached that program's ceiling. I haven't researched this assertion, and I'm open to being proven wrong. It feels like he has made them a consistent top 25 team. I don't believe they ever were before. He has found and developed QBs that weren't can't miss 5 stars.
That's my argument. I could name five guys I would be more excited about, but I'm going to jump on the CDM train and hope it goes back to the promised land. Unfortunately, I don't think we're likely to know for two years. Oh well.
I'd trade them right now.Not sure why they're so upset. I thought they'd all been clamoring for an ex-Bucs coach this whole time?
I'd trade them right now.
Good God. Settle down.
This hire would scream nepotism if Strick hired Mullen outright, but he went hard at Kelly and according to rumors he also tested the waters with Frost. No need to fuk around with Taggart, Norvell or whatever sh!t people choose to throw against the wall to see what sticks.
You were svkking butter's cawk three weeks ago. No one is surprised.Good God. Settle down.

Neither.You would take Shiano over Mullen? Definition of “over reaction”
