    Mullen takes subtle jab at bears in USA today article

    "That's become our philosophy. That's what makes this place unique in recruiting," Mullen says. "Our recruiting has a lot to do with evaluation, where other people's recruiting has to do with drafting and sales."

    Yeah you'd have to be a thin skinned bear to be bothered by that. There are other coaches who recruit in a similar fashion. Gary Pinkel is an example, Gary Patterson could be another. Recruit potential and develop it into future NFL guys. Which is why we have a first round LB who was a high school QB. Classic example.

    Thin skinned and bear go hand in hand.

    Sweet. I used to get incredibly pissed at Mullen about recruiting until I realized that he really (no it isn't just an excuse) doesn't look at stars and, truth be told, shouldn't.
