A few thoughts..
1) Stricklin should never be welcomed on campus again. He rode Byrne's coat tails on both Mullen and Cohen hires. He failed big time on one hire.
2) Mullen, man. You screwed us. Why go to a school who was wanting you fired when you were there.
3) I was sent a text saying Steve said our plane was headed to Atlanta to pick up our coach if this got done. Well who is in Atlanta playing the Falcons today? The Tampa Bay Bucs who's Co-OC is Todd Monken, formerly the HC of USM. Offensive guy, QB guy. Which is what we need here. Interesting.

That is an interesting name. I like him too
-
What happened at USM to cause him to leave?

Interesting catch on the Monken thing.

USM has no money for coaches. It's why Fedora left too.

1) agree.
2) I don't really blame Mullen but it does make all that "family" stuff look as shallow as Freeze's religion.
3) My guess is we are doing the interviews in Atlanta. It's a very easy place to get to from anywhere in the country and flights to there do not attract attention. Heck you can fly commercial to there and back in a day from pretty much the entire country.

You beat me to it. Monken is starting to leak if Dan follows through, which everyone expects him to.

I would be ok with Monken. He could do a good job
-
Monkens a hard a** intense son of a gun who knows how to develop qbs, wrs and an offense.
-
Very iffy on Monken but we could do worse. We need to get somebody with some recruiting chops though or someone who can bring some guys with them quickly.
We do have Key for 3 more years but somehow keeping Jones would help solidify us for a while. Hopefully we hire somebody that can convince him that MSU is still the place for him and easier to get to from TX than FL

Sounds like a Cohen guy
-
Good. Let's get this squared if this is what we are doing.
-
Monken with a good DC and we'll be fine.
-
Also, if we hired Monken, bet we throw the ball a bunch.
-
ID be jacked about Monken. He’d hit the ground running. Knows MS and LA.
-
You give Monken our weapons next year and lookout.

I know Monken a little bit from when he was in hburg. His son played baseball on a travel team down here that I coached against a few times. Todd is extremely sharp guy and he will be able to do some things offensively. We don?t even know if it?s him but he would be good.

Monken knows qbs, wrs and offense. We won?t have to worry about qb or wr play for sure.
