I think Jackie could?ve managed at least 3 SEC wins a year, plus the 4 cupcakes Mullins played. That?s at leaat 7 wins right there.

This.
Dan's SEC and especially SEC West were as strong as any division has been... ever.
Jackie won while LSU & Bama were WAY down from what they've been the last 10 years, and while Auburn had some dips.
The East was the bear back then and Jackie avoided playing even 1 of UF, UGA, and UT in many years.

Dan won 6 games because he loaded up with 4 La tech’s, trashy UK, and beat Ark/OM, or aTm. Not that hard. JWS played a tougher NC schedule. I’ll give Dan credit, he was a good developer, but if he was half as good as he thought he was, we’d of won 2 Titles.

As opposed to Jackie? First of all we always play UK no matter what. This wasn't a scheduling tactic by Mullen. Also, Jackie lost to UK in the 98 SECW Champ season.
Next here is a list of all non conference opponents from 1992-2000
1992
Texas
Memphis
Ark St
1993
Tulane
Ark St
Mem
1994
Mem
Ark St.
Tulane
1995
Baylor
NE Louisiana
Memphis
1996
La Tech
Memphis
NE Lousiana
1997
Memphis
NE Louisiana
UCF
1998
Memphis
E Tenn St.
Ok St
1999
Ok St
MTSU
Memphis
2000
BYU
Memphis
MTSU
So in his first nine years Jackie played a total 3 power 5 teams:
1992 Texas 6-5
1995 Baylor 7-4
1998 Ok St. 5-6 (Beat State SECW Champs)
1999 Ok St. 5-6

Notice that Jackie only got 3 non-conference to Mullen's 4 gimmie wins.

Yeah and notice all the cupcakes, I'm sure he would have scheduled a 4th if it were allowed

I wish you’d point to anywhere in my posts and show me where I blamed Mullen for playing UK. You won’t find anything. You said JWS wouldn’t win more than 6 games now, and I said JWS would win 7 games at least once. That?s all.

Dan was 2-16 vs Bama and LSU...Jackie had a couple more overall. But it still comes down to games vs the rest of the SEC when judging them. Games vs Bama and LSU have never been the way to judge our program
