Even in a situation like this where it was very unlikely, kids were concerned. It doesn't matter what we say or think or do. It matters how it impacts the program and its negatively impacted the program every year, whether it's recruiting or our former gump of an AD giving him a huge raise and extension. Glad to see Cohen nut up this year. At least that's what the initial indications have been.
Y'all need to get over the rumors. The FACT is that nationally Mullen is seen as have done an almost impossibly great job here. There are always going to be rumors about him leaving because of that FACT. It's not going to matter one bit what he says. He knows that. Most of us know that. If you want a coach without rumors of him leaving the only way you are going to get one is hire one that does so bad that no one in his right mind would even think about trying to hire him away. If the rumors are so damaging why do we help spread them?
