Fingers crossed its Mullen so we can get Richt.
And Richt gets the chance to avenge the all the big game losses every single season!Quote:

Not being an ass but why would you want a coach that couldn't win with Georgia's talent?Quote:

We could see their Jesus and raise them one.Quote:

Because that would mean we get all of our worthless assistants out and get a head coach that wants to be here and prove to everyone GA messed up.Quote:

Richt would be a grand slam with every momma in Mississippi. He'd have ties to MS, AL, LA, TX through State and bring his contacts in GA and FL. He'd have a very strong geographic footprint to recruit from.
If Miami has actually made their hire, and it is not out yet who it is, then i would put my money on it being Mullen. They keep it quiet so he can go back and officially address the team before it "goes public". Regardless, this has been an absolute mess of a turd storm for our program whether Mullen leaves or stays. There is some serious damage and baggage if he does the latter - especially with the alums and fans.
"Schiano impressed" I just heard those exact words. I'm still saying Davis but won't be suprised if it's ShianoQuote:

Richt is a guy that would be an upgrade at a place that needs help recruiting just based on his name (like MSU/Virginia/South Carolina).
I think Schiano and Mullen are pretty even. He did a really good job building at Rutgers but took a while. Harder recruiting area than we have. One losing season in his last 7 years their and bounced right back to 9 wins.Quote:

Mullen's big obstacle is the buyout clause. It's not huge, but when you're as broke as Miami, and the other three coaches are unemployed, that's a big deal. Salary requirement is also a negative.
True, he's been out of the game a little while though so you never know. I just feel like Mullen's system can be really tough to deal with at a school that allows him to recruit at a higher level than here.Quote:

True. But sounds like he made the decision to interview with them today. Maybe not just the way it was told to me. I actually thought Richt might be, at least, the sentimental favorite for that job. What they, or any one else have to guage with him, how much fire does he have left or does he really need a year off.Quote:

And he would completely neutralize Freeze's overly Christian fa?ade. Of all the coaches that are available, IMO Richt would be the best fit for MSU because of what you said.Quote:

I will lead the mob crew if we waive his buyout. He damn well better through some money to state on the way out the door.Quote:

Exactly. If/when Dan leaves- it's time for us to wish him well and move on. And I really believe we can make a really good hire ourselves and going the South Carolina "retread" approach is possibly a good way for us to go. Jackie worked out very well for us, so there is some precedent.Quote:

This is my guess too. Could be wrong.Quote:

You bitch & complain about how Mullen can't get us to the next level but want to bring in the guy who couldn't get UGA to the next level with top 5 talent? Yea this sounds logical. Good luck.
Richt's weekly with Bo would be pleasant.
I thought about that... Richt probably wouldn't show if he knew how bad bo has ragged on himQuote:
