Pro scout that knows Mullen claims Dan put proposal together for Oregon
-
Mullen wants a raise or the same money with an easier path to winning. What coach doesn't want either of those things?
-
Well, if true, Oregon's AD is an absolute idiot for hiring Willie Taggart over Dan Mullen.
Their resumes aren't close to similar
NOW, it could've been a situation where Mullen wasn't leaving MSU for less that what he's making now, & Oregon made a financial decision.
If that's the case, it's tough to blame Mullen. At least he loves his job at MSU enough to not take a pay cut to coach somewhere else.

I'm sure Mullen had plans for a move. You don't just become a top 2 finalist for a job on accident. Now whether or not he was offered the job or not who knows. But people are blind if they don't believe that he was definitely interested in the opportunity

Oregon could have paid the money and then some with absolutely no problem whatsoever. And they are one of only about 10 - 12 schools who could do so. There is also not a better fit in all of college football for how Oregon wants to run their program than Dan Mullen (except Meyer, but he ain't going anywhere). It's all BS. You don't fire a guy after one bad year and then start nickel and diming on the replacement anyway.

Agree.
It doesn't add up. If Mullen wanted to be the head coach at Oregon, Dan Mullen would've been the head coach at Oregon. You don't turn down Dan Mullen to hire Willie Taggart. That's asinine.

Based on what?
Taggart has turned 2 programs around and won 10 games this season. Mullen went 5-7 and lost to South Alabama this year. Western Kentucky went 0-12 the year before Taggart took over. South Florida was awful before he got there- now won 10 games. Taggart is every bit the coach Mullen has been
The scout mentioned Mullen's lack of recruiting- which is a widely known knock on him.

How about 40-45 and 0-2. Geez...

This. I've spoken with Mullen personally in the last few days. This is BS.

Maybe if we all say RP was right he will shut his pie hole. That seems to work when my wife argues with me.
I'll start. RP you were right.

So recruiting (or lack thereof) bites Mullen in the end at Orgeon...Kind of like it did here last year...

As I said, I hope that gets back to Dan and is a wake up call for him. Because that will help us out tremendously.

I wonder how long this "putting together a good plan took". Hope it didn't take him away from recruiting

Lol... U are aware that Landry as known as a joke right?

Sorry RP, but this claim is completely false. This pro scout is reaching. He's trying to create another Miami situation in hopes people will listen.

Not only did Mississippi State embarrass LSU on this night. Davis Wade Stadium wrecked Tiger Stadium in music choice, atmosphere and, most of all, volume.
