Bruce Feldman on Mullen

[RougeDawg]

Mullen is 5-4 against the worst team in the sec west. I'm ok whatever he does.

This is why we can?t have nice things.

Feldman updated it to quote salary increase to $6 million plus raises for staff

If we pay Mullen 6 mil, he may be here 20 years.

How many schools will pay more than that?

If and when Mullen leaves it won't be for $$$

Waste of time saying this. Nobody believes it. You are right but nobody is listening.

[Todd4State]

I believe we would match the 7 million of we had to and I would be fine with it. That's just how coaching salaries are trending nowadays.

Here A new take on this We have never leaked anything out regarding extensions or raises usually we just announce it. Feldman has never had great intel on us he loves him some bearsharks. Could this Be is getting out ahead of the news and our fan base saying hey we tried. Also this sends a message to potential HC we arnt afraid to spend $$

I’m going to wait until this over to say “told you so” but I’m going to enjoy it when it happens.

That's good news. I'm assuming that you think Dan is staying?

Posted in one of the 100 threads last night that he will be between 5.5-6 million and Grantham will be comfortably over $1M next year. And that I was told fairly bluntly that he’s not going to UT.

Sounds good......... I like the comment about the "in one of the 100 threads". Typical for ED this time of year.

[msstate7]

We have the top JUCO prospect and an UA All-American committed at the WR position right now.

Yep. Still would like to upgrade gonzo

Thanks again for putting some perspective on this. We aren?t poor ol mstate anymore. We have the right admin, AD and money to do whatever it takes to keep Dan and staff here.

I don't know how I feel about but this yet but as the morning progressed I'm starting to lean on the angry side.
Angry that he is even letting this perceived bidding war tke place. Who else is going to send a plane down in the coming days to scuttle him away ? Naw if he wanted to be here he wouldn't even let recruits think for one second he might not be here. Who's next to swing by next , A&M ? He wants to leave or it wouldn't be all out there like it is.
His shit needs to waiting on him when he gets back. Take that money we are trying to throw at him staying and buy somebody that is as capable as he is along with a little loyalty. Nobody good is going to stay until somebody good decides to stay.

[fader2103]

The only turn over I see is TBuck. Who would u want to replace him with.

[DudyDawg]

His strategy is god awful. Over passing goes without saying. No idea how to manage a clock. No idea what 4 down territory means, constantly going for it on 4th and long after throwing on 2nd and 3rd and medium. He's worse at strategy than CROOM. Seriously. Thank god he's a great OC.

ETA: and no idea what it means to get a play off before a questionable previous one can be reviewed. A few games ago he actually called in a new play while players were ready to snap, which led to a review on a turnover. Croom-tastic.

First half of the first paragraph spent bashing his offensive coordinating ability- then call him a great OC..... I?ll never get some of you people.

No. The OC calls plays. The HC determines strategy. Mullen is great at play calling, but terrible at strategy.

[Activated Alpha]

I'm sorry, but that shitastic 3-2 Auburn game will forever cement Croom as worse than Mullen. Yes Mullen has his weaknesses, but no where close to Croom.

I dont want to argue which is worse, I'll settle for people accepting Mullen is terrible at strategy.
