Man I know Mullen was kind of a *****, but good lord.....

“There were so many rumors every year,” Fitzgerald says of Mullen. “He told our team, ‘I’m not going anywhere.’” The Sunday after the loss to Ole Miss, Mullen met briefly with players. “He came in and said, ‘I’m leaving,’ and he walked out of the room.”
Dick move Mullen! Arrogant prick!
We are going to whip that ass Sept 29th.

Kind of shows what an asshole Mullen is.
BTW, how awesome is it to have an alum writing for SI now?
At last MSU can get a positive reflection in national media or at least someone that has been to Starkville writing about it

Yeah apparently all that we are family, i love you guys stuff was just bs. How hard would it have been for lateral move to say, "Guys, I feel like this is the best decision for me and my family, this was a really tough decision and I love y'all but I just couldn't turn it down". Instead of being a total prick. SMH, appreciate what he did,but glad he's gone.

It's not even going to be close. Our guys may hang 60 on them. They are going to beat everything Florida has in them out of them.

I know that's what Nick is quoted as saying in the article, but even with Dan at his most douchiness, I really can't imagine all he said was "I'm leaving" then turned around and walked out....no way.

I don't know man, the dude could be a total jerk at times, I could see it happening. I would like to hope it wasn't true but I could see him doing it.

This is almost certainly closer to what he actually said. I'm pretty confident Fitzgerald didn't literally mean that he said 'I'm leaving' and that's it.

It's what most guys say when they're leaving somewhere in this type situation. Who knows though. Of course if the rumors that he and Cohen had a knock down drag out before that, I could see it happening.

Who cares? He's gone. Let's whip his ass in September and move on

Wow, I never heard that, but I would pay to see it.

As arrogant as Mullen is I'm sure it's far closer to the truth. He might have added a Go Gators at the end with a hand chomp.

Tommy Tubberville left OM in the middle of the night and didn't even say goodbye to his team. He also left a recruit at a dinner table and just didn't come back a few years ago.

This is a great article about Fitz, his recovery, and how the staff wants to use him. And all you guys are focusing on is one out of context quote about Mullen.
-
It doesnt matter what he said. Actions speak louder than words and DMing UT's AD the night before the egg bowl was all that matters to me.
Dont think these kids dont want to beat the shit out of danny two gloves in september. Bc they do
-
Mullen was so ready to get out of Starkville, I'm surprised he didn't send Hev in to make the announcement.
On a more serious note - those are the type of preseason profiles HEISMAN CONTENDERS get.
Also - holy shit he duck taped and bubble wrapped a broken arm to keep playing in Junior High??? That's damn warrior mentality at young age.
"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""
