I have no idea why more of our fans don't understand this. Mullen is being paid like a Top 15 HC. No one is going to pay him more until he starts being competitive against Bama and winning big games against LSU, Auburn, etc. He hasn't done enough for the blue bloods to splash the cash for him and he's making too much for anyone else to poach him. If he leaves, it'll be for one of two reasons: 1) He finally gets over the hump and gets several big wins, including over Bama or 2) He wants a new challenge. That's it. He either makes us better or he moves on by choice.
