Wrote an article about which SEC coaches were most likely to leave within next 10 years.

On Dan Mullen:

"He's an ambitious man, and at some point in the next ten years, he's going to finally accept that he can't fulfill all of his ambitions at Mississippi State. The right major job will come along, and pretty much everyone will accept that it's time for him to take it."

On Hugh Freeze:

"Freeze hasn't generated any NFL interest that I've seen, and him (probably) turning down the Florida job shows he's a Mississippi boy through and through. Even if he doesn't win a division title, I can easily see him being around a decade from now because I think he'll recruit well enough to keep the Rebels in bowl games every year between now and then. Even with a rich contract, that plus his ability to connect with fans should be enough given the program's history."

If you check out his profile, you'll see he follows several SEC blogs, including TSUN, but not MSU, of course.

Guess ole Dave missed the part where Dan proved you can get to #1 at MSU. We just need to finish better. But obviously, being Mississippi State did not prevent us from getting there and staying for a long time. Sure, we didn't close it out, but we did prove it's not nearly impossible.

Sounds like he need to shop at Megan's store when he is in Starkville

Mullen's In-laws now live in Sville and his wife has a business there. He ain't leaving anytime soon.

Predicting a coach will leave "sometime in the next ten years" is like predicting that we will wear maroon and white.

I thought that was funny too. Everyone on this board called that for what it was as soon as the Florida "interest" started leaking out.

that's also the first time I've ever seen Freeze and NFL mentioned in the same sentence

Not sure where you got that info Coach, but Megan does not own Deep South Pout. But I do agree the Mullen's aren't going anywhere soon.

If that's wrong, I apologize. Had 2 different people tell me that. I have no idea what or where it is

No apology necessary...I just happen to be close friends with the owner so I thought I would mention it.

That's the most important and the only fact needed. Who cares who owns it

Don't forget the Mullen36 foundation...he's invested in the state overall. He's got a lake house in Georgia he can escape to when need be.

She does a lot of promotion for Deep South pout. Not an owner unless something has changed.

Ga is one of the few jobs he'd leave us for.

Georgia is dan's ultimate job at this point. I can say that fairly confidently.

Him and Freezus both- wtf is up with Georgia???? Mullen because he is buddies with the AD. Freezus has some fixation on the Georgia job also that I dont understand. I'd rather have the LSU job. 1 big school and damn near every kid in the state wants to wear that uniform.

If Freeze got an offer from Florida and turned it down, then it was right after they made the same offer to my cat and got the same response.

Megan owning a business of operation no matter the specifics is a strong statement. Esp one as well known as DSP. Dress shop or not.....don't listen to those "sources" ever again.

It's easier to name the schools that could possibly keep their coach for 10 years.

Saban, Miles, Reicht and Spurrier will be retired by 2025. All will be very attractive coaching positions when they come open, but I believe they will bring in outside talent and not poach coaches from the SEC when the time comes.

Mullen, Freeze, Ark, Mizzo's, Florida, Kentucky, aTm and TN all still have some time left to coach. I could see most of these staying put.
Vandy will change coaches 4 times in the next 10 years.
