    I am fine with it. Especially with rumors of Hughy. Wish they would have waited till Hugh resigned to announce it.

    Good and bad. No coach should be getting an extension after a losing season (unless you're the Shitbird's coach for the next few years). But on the other side, it should lead to more stability through the next few crucial years of being the only relevant school in the state.

    I am really neither in support of it nor opposed to it, if that makes any sense. But I am surprised he got the raise with the extension. If it had just been the extension but no raise I would have understood it.

    We've wanted to be proactive and take advantage of OM's impending doom....from an appearance standpoint, it shows commitment and stability. I'll trust Cohen until he proves otherwise.

    It's about time. It should have happened last year.

    I think he needs a raise after signing the classes he did competing against Ole Miss who was cheating their ass off. All the rumors of what they did now sounds real. Like paying recruits not to visit State.

    Maybe he isn't truly getting a raise. Based on the last contract, I think coach Mullen was already going to receive around 4.5 million next season. It's hard to know for sure since our last AD liked to purposely obfuscate things when it comes to salaries. Gives Dan 4 year contracts that average "X" amount of dollars over the life of the contract. So, maybe the intense bastard just decided to pay Dan the highest level reached under the old salary agreement for 4 straight years. I'm okay with that I suppose. Not sure any real raise was warranted based on this last season's CF, but an extension of at least 2 years was needed for the perception of stability.

    I think it's an appropriate extension. Most of the woes last year were on the defense, and it looks to have been rectified.

    Mullen was told of the cheating in February 2016..... and he held everything on an even playing field.

    It would have been awfully stupid if we didn't.

    We needed to show commitment and stability in our football program at this time more so than any time in our history. This extension, the hiring of grantham and English and some other moves shows we are stable and committed. Time to bury the bears and continue the growth and progression we have shown.

    I'm OK with it, we need coaching stability for recruiting purposes, I just hope we got a serious buyout to our advantage. In Cohen I trust, I think he's smarter than Sexton!

    And like clockwork, Paul Finebaum going on-and-on showing his obvious irritation at us for giving this contract to "a coach who had a losing record last year". Says it's all about poking UNM, and seems to be insinuating we are rewarding Mullen for his role in bringing his BF Hugh down.

    Lmao. You and Yancy think Rosebowl got them in trouble? They got themselves in trouble. Rosie just helped leak it when they were denying it. Same as this place, although Rosebowl's "deepthroat" was impressive down the stretch. The only two semi-accurate reporting outlets on the NCAA investigation has been here and on scout.

    Somebody should go buy Leo Lewis a car for having the guts to endure the onslaught of hate despite being a teenager. Kids got guts.
