Well that sh*t is almost over, Mullen is rejuvenated, recruiting is up and we're about to dominate this State for a long time!! Hail freakin' State!!
I think this was the biggest thing that was keeping Mullen looking for greener pastures. He knew he was recruiting with one hand tied behind his back as long as OM was wheeling and dealing like they were. Once the investigation got into swing you could almost sense him getting a second wind and as it has gone on he has seemed more and more rejuvenated.

Mullen is no dummy. He is making top 15 money and as long as he averages 8/9 wins with 2 out of 3 against OM, he'll be satisfying the majority of his fanbase. He could go to a place like Tenn. or Texas A&M and get run out of town in 5 years winning 8/9.
