    I was a huge Mullen fan. He brought energy back into a lifeless program. The kind of energy MSU had not seen since JWS in the late 90"s. Whether he would come back to MSU or not I don't know. If I was guessing, I would say that he wouldn't.

    A different day now than it was 6plus years ago. Dan?s ?I?m a cool Bro schtick? wearing his Yeezy shoes or whatever you whippersnappers call them wouldn?t work for recruits now.

    Mullen 2 would be a lot worse than Polk 2

    I don?t think that would be possible. Although Polk 2 did take us to Omaha for 2 and BBQ, Mullen took State to a Bowl Game every year but his first. Not many State Coaches in the modern ERA beat Ole Miss 3 Straight times. In fact, only 1.

    Mullen wouldn't spend every last second fighting the NCAA instead of coaching. Just the last 2 games of the season looking for other coaching jobs. And that has probably left his system.

    I'm indifferent if he came back but it'd be our luck that he would show immediate signs of turning things around like 2009 then James Franklin would get shit-canned at the end of 2024 and Penn State would come calling. Isn't that the school everybody always said he was wanting?

    You mean just like Lane Kiffin? Seems to work pretty well for him.

    Why, Jim? So you can keep us all informed as to the latest "Dan Mullen to (fill in the blank)" beginning in November of every year just before the EB?

    Mullen would be working the phones, or his agent would, for better job openings before his first day of practice in 'Vegas.

    I have said about every coach that ever left MSU voluntarily during my lifetime: "If you don't want to be here, I don't want you here!!" Be good or be gone!!

    Nope, no way DM gets a do-over from me!!

    Yeah, having a coach no one wants is so much preferable

    I mean we saw the offense that Mullen would have ran with Wright. Wright isn't a bruiser with speed. Auburn game was as much rope as Wright could have.

    Have no idea if he would be interested but heck yes I would take Mullen back if he wanted to come back. He is literally the ONLY coach on the face of the planet still in prime coaching age that has proven he can win at MState. I mean although apparently plenty of Americans seem to think Biden is not too old and senile to be president, I've eliminated JWS from our possible coaching candidate pool.

    He's a lot more well-known now than when we hired him, since he's been at Florida and now ESPN. I think he'd be a good hire.

    The cigar boys didn't pony up the ca$h fast enough on AJ. freeze had a personal friend in the SHS staff who facilitated the entire scheme and it worked well for AJ. The heat got to the assistant coach on staff and he left town and headed north for a HC position. He has now relocated to a county just west of oxford as HC.

    AJ always said Merls didn't give him any "love". But he wasn't coming here and most know it. Most are pissed because he went to OM.

    exactly...he was NEVER going to come to state. this was known by all those anywhere near him fairly early in his high school career. what is interesting is that less than a week before signing day he was telling former SHS athletics "legends" that he was going to play for saban.
