And even if he does win out, I would still hope that Hevesey would be asked to leave or demoted.
I had a similar thought in my head. I guess I equate a sack being like a TD allowed- so therefore 9 sacks would be like a defense allowing 63 points. In my mind at least. However you want to quantify it, it's not good.Quote:

I haven't read all through the thread, but what 's the old saying..you pay for what you get. I know Mullen is making over 4 million, but it's time to step up the pay for our assistant positions. Hell, Kirby Smart makes more than half of our assistants combined.
The problem with that set of play calls is this:Quote:

When it didn't work, he went to play calls (power up the gut) that his team had no confidence in and Alabama's defense didn't respect.
I intentionally wanted to stay off the message boards this weekend, because I was so fired up over the game, and I wanted to chill out. But the more I think about it, the more disappointed I am in Mullen. He was poor across the board saturday, from game planning, to play calling, to clock management, to personnel, to execution.
When you come out in the first quarter, and drop your QB into the pocket to wait for intermediate and long pass routes to come open, you're going to get sacked, and you're not going to move the ball. That's what happened to us. I don't know what he did all week, but if he would've watched five minutes of the Miss-Bama game, he would've seen that the way to move the ball against Bama (and open up running lanes) is to spread the field and hit short/quick routes. Defensively, I don't know how you let Henry run it right up the gut for a long TD, or let a simple 20 yard hitch turn into a long TD. You can't make those mistakes in the 10th game of the effing season. On the punt, I told my buddy it was going to the house when it was in the air. Shitty punt, no hang time, easy to return. You can't do that if you're a D-1 punter in the SEC. I don't blame him - I blame his inconsistency on a lack of coaching.
And for those who cried for weeks about not letting Graves try the FG against LSU, you saw why on Saturday. He's accurate, but he can't kick anything beyond 46 yards. That's also embarrassing.
OK, I'm done.
I'm trying to decide if some are sounding like a Ole Miss board or maybe this board goes the Usm route. Fire Jeff Bower because "we can do better" or "he is to vanilla". Winning ain't always easy, if it was we would have won a long time ago.
25-6 tells me he is doing something right in by far the most competitive football conference in America. The Sec has been noted as the best football conference in the country ONLY because of the West.
Come on y'all, glad known of you folks run the athletic department.
" Tebow had the Pounceys blocking for him- Dakota doesn't "
And UNM stuffed him and won the game. Two things to count on when Dan is close to the goal or need a big 4th down.....Jump pass and QB draw/dive. JMHO
I do not want Mullen gone... Not yet anyway. Lose the Egg and I will prob feel differently. If he is gone at the end of the season(he won't be) I'd prefer him to leave to take another job. Having said that if he leaves I can give you a top 5 list that WOULD take it without question.
1- Kyle Wittingham(. C34 is right, he WANTS an SEC job and he despises the Utah administration.)
2- Mike Leach
3- Todd Monken
4- Butch Davis
5- rich Rod (he's wanting out of AZ)
That list makes me hope even more that Mullen stays and just works on his flaws.Quote:

No kidding. Not having Justin Fuente even in your top 5 is beyond embarrassing. Whittingham is solid. I'd take a look at Fedora at UNC. He seems to have gotten them going this year.Quote:
