Administration & Mullen

[RougeDawg]

If other programs contacted him and wanted to talk is one thing, I couldn't blame him for listening. But it seems that he or his agent were actively seeking employment else where, and that is unacceptable.

I had one source tell me that Keenum was really pissed about his lack of loyalty and that is the reason he did not extend his contract this year. He has two years left and I would think that we have enough money to buy him out, if it comes to it.

But one game in is not the time to make a decision, but he will be under the microscope this year I would think, if what I heard about Keenum is true.

What you heard is true. We lessened the buyout by not extending as result of the off field antics after last season. Not getting a raise and extension only widened the gap and further angered the Yankee. Which fully explains why we saw what we saw Saturday. A coach that looked like he just got done with 18 and wanted to hit the 19th hole instead of try to bury an inferior opponent.

So, "The Yankee" got angry and decided he didn't want to beat South Alabama out of spite?

He actually lost a game we never expected to lose. Maybe it's true that we were up where we should have been at the half, then lost control out of complacency, and that's on Mullen. But that "Yankee" crap is the same damn thing that made Templeton keep hiring Bryant prot?g?s.

There's a coach over at Millsaps who is available if you're interested.

Mullen still wants to make it happen here. The man is driven, even if he wears shorts and runs a marathon. Prospective hires might wonder if there's a reason Jackie couldn't make us a power year after year,..and Mullen couldn't do it either. Both the #2 guys on National Championship Programs.

I'm with just about everyone on the offensive line. But the " I heard from a guy" garbage really stinks.
