I think it was a combo of just being ready to move on plus the OM factor. I know for a fact Mullen, Hev, and Gonzo hated dealing with OM in recruiting.
Can you blame Mullen on Ole Miss recruiting when you know your going to lose that battle the majority of the time? You and I both know if we ever started beating them in that capacity they'd set him up and turn him in. I think being a 1st time head coach in recruiting and tactics to be successful in MS was too much for him.
