He's the MSU version of Hugh Freeze. The guy that wants to be at MSU and will stay there no matter what, due to his passion for the place. Plus, he now has the in-roads needed into the most underrated state in the union for football talent. And, he has ties in Alabama. He's the guy for that. How is his coaching? Who knows.

If not, Mullen and the equivalent is about as good as it's gonna get. To change a program permanently, you have to have a good coach stay for a long time, THEN you start getting better recruits. Or you play the pay game like Ole Miss. If Mullen leaves, those of you wanting Herman or similar may as well go jump in the Tenn-Tom, that sh*t ain't happening. It's either Hud or we roll the dice on another coordinator, and start the process all over again.

I personally hope Mullen stays and continues to build the program. Just because Ole Miss paid a bunch of mercenaries to come help them go on a 2-year run of 9-3, does not make me change my mind on that.

I hope after you all calm down after a few days, you start to see the big picture. I know emotions are ruling the day right now, but d*mn.

And for the record, I'm not completely happy with Mullen, it definitely seemed like the 1998 Egg Bowl last night - at least the distraction part. We'll see if that was the case, or their talent is just that much better.
