You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Coach again.

Guys like Hev and Sallach that have been around well, I'm not sure how many HS coaches want a relationship with them.

We just hired some well respected high school coaches to help with our issues in that regard. I think Mullen is recommitted and is building the staff - on and off the field - to make another jump with this, OUR, program. It is happening. Enjoy it!

I wish their was some transparency about what's going on. These are lateral moves. People don't do this if they are happy.

I've never seen this many people jump ship after a team was ranked number 1. How does this happen?

Uhhhh.....ever heard of Auburn? Win the NC and 2 years later fired their staff.

And on f*cking top of that he will not get rid of one of your colleagues who absolutely sucks and covers an area which the head boss has the most experience? Jesus some of you throw logic and perspective out the windows when you put on your maroon glasses. Wake up. This comes from the mismanagement at the top.

Been saying for years Dan is a big micromanager. We've been seeing the fruits, but it wasn't blindingly obvious until this season. Anyone with a functioning brain should've known no successful HC changes his DC EVERY DAMN YEAR.

You're correct Coach ... every season we dominate KY and usually another SEC E team that sucks, and then squeak out wins against 1 - 2 SEC W teams that are having down years. Oh, and we beat up on those stellar OOC opponents we face too.

Kid of ironic Miami would hire Richt, a job that Mullen apparently wanted, and Richt hired Diaz away from Mullen.

LOL, I guess if Mullen had gotten the Miami job he would have taken Manny with him.

with the exception of 3 or four bad plays and a 4th and 25th OM had a kickass defense.

They were 10th in the league in scoring and total defense in conference only games last season.

3 or 4 plays and 4th & 25? Arkansas moved the ball at will on OM. Everybody remembers 4th and 25, but Arkansas did just about whatever they wanted on offense during that game.

Eight years ago and beyond that, we could not beat those teams.

Nobody said a thing about stopping. Most understood when Mullen got here that the right guy would take a decade to build the program to what it needs to be and that wins and losses would never (and this is for every school athletic program that has ever existed) be a straight upward trajectory. The decade is not up and we still have work to do.

Ok ... we'll see in a couple of years then. And I think that is reasonable. Clean slate on D staff ... let's see how they do and how they stick.

I have always been bothered by the DC turnover and I believe Mullen mucks with the D too much. I also don't like how he's quick to blame them for an L. He needs to get that O working top-notch all the time (not just for the first 8 games of 2014, which is really the only time it's been that good). Being able to consistently run a 2 minute offense when it's needed would be nice, as well as having good special teams.

Don't know if you notice, but an L is never the Os fault. And many times to me it has been.
