If he's that anxious to get out of Starkville, he may accept a paycut. I don't understand why he let it be known that he interviewed for the job. I think the other candidates don't have a job at the present time. Makes it looks as if he has lost interest in staying at State.Quote:

I have as well but did you let your employer know about it ?Quote:

They can't match our pay, our campus, our facilities, our small town, our rivalries, our conference, our student base, and damn sure can't touch our fan base. Miami is a dying program. Everyone can see that.
Easier conference.... School and boosters willing to Cheat....to get the talent in that state.

Ha, no. And I'm working so I haven't had time to read any of this, so I didn't know Dan told Scott before he went either.Quote:

Makes me 1 million and 0 for my lifetime on predictions". It's stupid, selfish, garbage...and does nothing to help the program. It's just to try and say they 're capable of forcing change by their words on a message board.
Oh well. He clearly wants out of Starkville. 7 years in this hell hole was clearly too much. Why else would someone interview for a job, right? And the Internet says he did it, & that he's wanted out for a while....and Coach34 says that's the truth...so why would anyone debate or question, or tell people to think for themselves and don't overreact or read deeper into something than normal.**
Honestly, I just hope Stricklin isn't sitting on his ass right now. Just be proactive is all I ask. Whether he leaves or not, the leverage is squarely in Scott's court now.
Facilities and fan support are HUGE. Why do you think Miami has fallen off like they have? If they didn't have so many players available in south Florida it would be much worse than it already is. Its a commuter school.Quote:

ESPN confirms Mullen interviewed at Miami within the last 24 hours. Still think Bonner is full of it?Quote:

Yea, but if Athlon Sports says it then it must be true.***Quote:

They are also reporting that they can and will pay more for their next coach. $4MIL per is what is being report they could pay.Quote:

Also, anyone that says Miami is a step up from MSU, is what is holding us back. The jobs are not close right now. We are clearly a better program and a better job.
Bingo. It's amazing some of the biggest sunshine pumpers like Liverpool call Miami a better job than us. On second thought, that explains a lot.Quote:
