Explain to me what Cohen should have/could have done to keep Mullen.

Yea she does. Does Dan need his ass wiped or have you already got that covered? If you thought this team went 6-6 then you are the only one because there is 0 excuses for it.
Or maybe moorhead is over at your house every night staring up at a picture of Dan Mullen in khaki shorts?
Good grief. I liked Mullen but he didn't want to be here, he's gone and he's not coming back. Get over it, move on.
He should have topped what Florida offered by enough to keep him. If we couldn't do that that it should have been made plain that we couldn't afford it, at the time. That has never been done. I'm sure it will be.....now. I'm not sure from stuff I have heard that our baseball coach....excuse me......AD.... wasn't why it happened. My understanding is Mullen thought we were about to run him off. If he read this board I'm sure he had that impression. As for as the hire, I do NOT fault Cohen there. We hired one of the hot names. I ain't ready to run HIM off yet either. We don't have the personnel for his system. Few, if any, coaches can adapt to what they have like Mullen did.
I think you are full of shit. Mullen felt warranted pressure in 2013 and in 2016 because he was half assing it and underachieving.
Remember 2011 starting off ranked?? Biggest win that year was over wake forest in the bowl game? With a team full of NFL talent on defense?? Sound familiar??? Kinda sounds like Moorhead to me.
2016 after pouting all offseason he loses to south alabama and BYU??? The managers and 4th string long snapper GPA saves us from blowing the bowl streak?? GTFO dude. You are so over the top its hard to believe you actually believe some of this shit
If you are living the moment of losing to a pretty good LSU team on the road then no. Like I said you can shit on Moorhead all you want, and it is 100 percent warranted but this about Mullen has to stop.
There are 0 excuses as to why this team is 4-3 right now. Moorhead has been bad and Im as mad as anyone so dont jump on that train either. If we go 6-6 we should get rid of him and get someone else.
Nope, realistically commenting on things, as always. I was right about Mullen. The funny thing is I'm probabaly one of the few that ain't wanting to run Moorhead off right now. We may have to down the road, but not yet. It's hard to follow someone who beat the historical average well as Mullen did.
Not sure where you get it wasn't good enough for me. I've said forever that I'm happy with our football program winning 8 a year and contending/semi-contending every 4-5 years. Expecting more than that in the sec west here is unrealistic. Moorhead won't come close to that... he's blown our every 4-5 year contender
Long term- yes.
He didn't want to be here anymore. It is what it is. We probably should have told him to just take the Maryland job in 2015 and we would be MUCH better for it right now.
Even if Joe fails- he's not going to get the long grace period that a Croom or Felker got. 2018 MSU isn't going to let that happen.
Everyone sold it - not just this board. National media was selling it hard. Almost every article from day 1 said we made one of the best hires in the off season. They all said Dan was a great coach and Joe was possibly the next great coach. Almost every article said we were primed to run what Joe did at PSU. Our school sold it with the dumbass "Moor" campaign. Did you see anyone nationally saying we made a stupid, poor hire that ran an offense that didn't match our personnel?
We all wanted to believe we were better off because Mullen dicked us. Plain and simple.
