Of course I don't mind admitting when I'm wrong but the reality is just because he wants out doesn't mean he's gone. Nobody has offered him a job yet.Quote:

Spoken with and interviewed are entirely different things. Does Miami calling Mullen classify as an interview?
When?Quote:

I'm sure this bodes well for Simmons, Brown, Jones, Lashley, etc.Quote:

I don't know if he's interviewing with schools or not but if it's found that he is, I want him gone! That just tells me he's not into it 100% and if he's not all in, we're not going too win. We're not gonna win in recruiting, on the field or as a program.
Miami is a better job than State. I don't see the big deal....
In what world is current Miami better than current State???Quote:

Only thing State has to offer over Miami is facilities and fan support. Possibly money, but they aren't poor. Miami has better location, tradition, recruiting ground, easier conference, etc.
I have no problems with admitting when other jobs are more appealing than ours, but Miami just doesn't seem appealing. Lack luster fan base, outdated facilities, off campus stadium... I guess history plays a bigger role than I would have thought..Quote:

Um, no it's not, and it's not close. Miami has a better history than State, but they are broke, they play off-campus, and their facilities are terrible. Their coach this year (Al Golden) made half of what Mullen makes at State. I don't see that they could match what we pay Mullen.Quote:

SEC, on campus stadium, sellout crowds, 4mil a yr.
Bullshit!Quote:

Yes, Mullen has interviewed with Miami. We'll see if they offer.
Glad I'm not the only one who sees it this way.Quote:

Posted again for bump. Both of these have Miami ranked as a MUCH better job than State. The U isnt what it once was, but it's still better than State, especially if you want a fresh start or a new challenge and live in paradise.
But the only way it matters is the way Mullen see's it... Evidently good enough to try, but he's up against some stiff competition..Quote:

If not and he stays, then damnit he better start giving reach arounds to these huge recruits that can make an immediate impact and start getting the players hyped for teams with a strong pulse. Otherwise I wish him luck and hope Scott doesn't Rick Ray the next guy in line.Quote:

I've interviewed for several jobs without "wanting out" of my current one. Just to gauge interest & see what they had to offer. I'm not saying my source was right or wrong...but there damn sure hasn't been anything released to prove you're right about him "wanting to leave". Miami's a bad ass area to live, so if they pony up the cash he's making now, who would fault him? He'd be dumb not to at least hear people out. Plus, he has a better shot at a Title in Miami in the ACC.
Some of you are either horrible business people, or are so determined to run "Dansbury" off that you'll spin anything to meet your narrative.
Whatever though...if he leaves he leaves
Mullen better take Omar's advice.
When you come at the King, you best not miss. He better get a gig, otherwise he has some explaining to do.
One other thing to remember
Richt- No buyout
Schiano- No buyout
Davis- No buyout.
Davis wants it and is lobbying hard for it. Even PUBLICALLY. Look for Davis to get it. Looks like we are gonna be stuck with a coach that tried to get out but nobody would hire. That's the worst possible scenerio ever.
We will see. May know as early as tomorrow. Usually when a candidate is talked up so well like Davis has been to the media and he speaks about the interview, they are not the guy. Schiano is really liked by some of the search committee. I think it could be any one of them Davis background with NCAA problems would be a bit of a surprise. Good diverse group.Quote:
