I've never seen ESPN say he was going to those places. I have seen ESPN mention he was being looked atQuote:

He is stuck with us and that's a good thing as long as he doesn't get complacent or lazy on the job which I can't say is 100% true all the time but honestly who doesn't get lazy from time to time at the same job they've been doing for 8 years straight. Rest and being lazy at times is good for the mind and body. It makes you more effective when you are actually working. Over rest and too much lazy is bad though. Does anybody on this board work 100+ hours a week for 8 years straight? No or I certainly hope not or you'll keel over and die soon.
I'll remind everyone since you guys seem to forget so quick:
Mullen went 9-4 last season and for the 1st time in his tenure- DID NOT get the automatic extension back to 4 years. There's a reason for that. It was his job shopping. Now you guys can try and act like ESPN is full of shit and there is some big bear conspiracy- but his name keeps ending up there because his agent is working to get him some of these jobs
We have folks with an agenda. To make Mullen look like he is after every job in the counrty. You might say he is getting the Stansbury treatment. This board used to be about promoting MSU. Now it is becoming a petty rumor mill, most of the time with no real info, that is rivaling the Kardashians. So much for a pro MSU site.
Well then being a Head coach in the sec west isn't for him...tough shit but welcome to the real world buttercup.Quote:

The agenda is strong in this thread. It is a mute point now. Dan Mullen will be here next year and my guess would be he will be here for the foreseeable future. Will we have to endure the Mullen "rumors" every year until he leaves?
LOL so true.Quote:

ESPN confirms what I've said and it's an agenda. ESPN just doesn't want Mullen to stay at State do they?
What's more likely to be true, Mullen works less than every other SEC West coach or Mullen has less "help" i.e. office workers, tools, money for recruiting needs, elite assistant coaches etc.. than every other SEC West coach? If we really want to improve Mullen's recruiting we have to make sure every detail involved is equal or better than our competition. The problem with Mullen's recruiting isn't Mullen it is Mississippi State University always being molasses to change with the times. We see this in every aspect of our University. We aren't trendsetters we are bitching followers that never want to spend money for anything. Here's a weird random example I just saw this last week. I went into the store Lids to buy a Dallas Cowboys hat and I see the college section of the store has all the big name SEC schools of course and it also had an entire rack for USM and another one for Old Misses. They didn't have one single MSU hat in the store yet they had an entire rack for Southern Mississippi. This applies to every ****ing thing that has to do with MSU. We have ****ing dinosaurs running our University.Quote:

He wasn't "listening" (or whatever you want to call it) that hard to them if he isn't in Eugene right now standing on a podium. Just because somebody on the search committee talked to his agent on the phone doesn't make him a finalist, but thats all it really takes for him to be quoted as such in the article by a confidential source. You posted the article with follow up comments to try to prove that Mullen is doing what "he does every offseason", whether that is listening to pitches or wanting out or job searching or whatever your definition is. The reality is that the article actually proves the opposite to be true.Quote:

You can't go to any single Lids store outside of 4 hours from Starkville and find one single MSU hat. That is a ****ing problem and it isn't Mullen's job to fix it. He needs help. Our University must help him yet we don't. Why?Quote:

Part of why he makes so much money is to demand change to make his job more successful. If he was making 3.4 then maybe that's a little different. Marketing and media could be a little stretch of that but the recruiting and everything about it is 100% in his control. And if it's not he's not doing enough to make it that way.Quote:

If I remember correctly, you were one of the guys wanting him to have an opportunity to take another job at the end of the season?(in your opinion it was what was best for the program) So technically shouldn't you be glad he is/was "looking around". Again, your narcissism and arrogance is very similar to everything ole miss. I am hoping it is just to drive views and clicks and if that is the case then congrats and sorry for misinterpreting your personality/intentions. If not, then it is sad that you need to be the end all be all of sports message boards on the internet and feel the need to be justified on every prediction you make. And man, am I glad AJ brown didn't end up at Ole Miss. and That Danny Etling is going to be the first QB taken in the draft he had an unbelievable season and got better every game.***Quote:
