Is that not the very description of evaluation?

Mullen had Slay for 2 years. He didn't even start him his junior year opting to go with the veteran, Broomfield.
Slay wasn't ready early in his JR year. Was painfully obvious when he was out there in nickel -- not much different than Justin Cox currently.

Slay was an All American return guy in Juco that Mullen never let return a punt or kickoff. Slay ran the fastest 40 yard dash at the combine. He was going pro even if he signed with William and Mary.
If all this was true, why were we his ONLY offer out of JUCO? Make that make sense to me. Because it doesn't. We were his only option...

The 3 star guard you mentioned, again, committed to Croom. Are you trying to tell me that Mullen is good at evaluating O-linemen? LOL to that one.
He clearly hit on that one -- that no one else in the SEC saw fit to offer -- and Mullen didn't see fit to drop.

Ballard was a Juco All-American RB. But yes, fortunately no other major schools really offered him.
So, you agree then?

McKinney going really early in the draft is pure speculation at this point. I don't see it right now.
You are the only one that doesn't see it.



There is TONS of stuff to question and berate Mullen about. Player evals is not one of them.
