True, he is producing at a certain level to go to decent bowl games, however, a guy with an ego like Dan can't be satisfied with things like getting our asses kicked by UNM two years in a row, never having beaten Saban or really even come that close, and finishing tied for 5th in the West in a year that he had the best QB in the league. I'm not trying to downplay the many great things he has done with our program but I'm thinking realistically that those are all things that would keep a competitive brash guy like Mullen fired up to take another step forward. Sadly, even if you look at our 2014 run of wins over LSU, A&M and Auburn those were wins over good teams but by no means elite teams. So I would hope he gives a rat's ass, not for anyone's approval, but because he knows to move beyond where we are right now and truly be a consistent factor in the SEC our overall talent level does need to go up.

It doesn't hurt them because they're recruiting well, but misinformation is the name of the game for them.

And then ignore the attrition after signing day they seem to have EVERY year. Really is the same shit different day

I could be completely wrong but that's just what I was told. Kind of hard to believe that a kid that played in both the Under Armour All-American game in baseball and football wouldn't even want to try it out. Even if he plans to stick with football in the future.

If I had my way, a conference call with his agent and his lawyer.

Rosebowl saying tonight that we are "third in a 3 team race" with AJ. That both OM & Bama are ahead.

Unless he lied to me last week he is playing high school baseball this spring. Of course, things can change but that was straight from the horses mouth.

I will stick with what I said several months ago about his recruitment and just hope that I am pleasantly surprised.

He may have changed recently. That was a little while back and like I said he was talking about not playing. It wasn't anything firm. But baseball is not going to be a deciding factor in where he goes.

ETA. I still think he goes to Bama so this is not a pitch that he is coming here.

This is the easiest statement he can twist Coke Wednesday. If we miss he can say "see I told you" and if we land he can go the "we made a strong push at the end." They don't pay their bills without clicks.

AJ recruitment been one of the strangest I can remember. He's ours, he's not ours, he's going to Bama, he's going to unm, then we are back in it, then we are third behind Bama and unm. Just all over the place! Does anyone really know what he's gonna do? Maybe only AJ himself.

I know what he's not going to do...and that's sign with State. This is a big time fumble by this staff.

Ask Leo Lewis or Chris Jones.

It's hard for me to point fingers without knowing all the factors. Hometown kids can sometimes be the hardest to recruit. Other factors come into play that are in play with no other recruits.

I'm not saying I told you so... but I did. AJ wants to move away from home.

Just another excuse.

He's going to be an hour away. It's a garbage excuse for getting outworked. Let's quit trying to polish this turd.

How do you know we've been outworked?
