We would have to just implode ala Stands for Mullen to be out anytime soon. And we arent going to fire a football coach at State that is going to bowl games- just not going to happen.

Then you have recent quotes by Strick in an ESPN article:

"?Well, that is silly because he?s not on the hot seat,? Stricklin told ESPN.com Sunday night.

"Mullen isn?t even in a hot room"

There will be more stumbles along the way, but Stricklin truly sees a program built for long-term success under Mullen.

?You don?t see a lot of Johnny-come-latelys having great success at a high level in this league,? he said. ?It?s the schools that are there year after year after year, and that?s what we want to be.?


I personally think we have Mullen another 5 years or so....Hud will already have left ULL and moved to a better job, making it dicey as to where he would return to S'ville or not.
