With our brand having grown somewhat, our facilities, our current roster, recruiting class, etc. I believe we would be able to go out and get a REALLY good coach. I also believe we have an AD that is a winner, truly loves MSU, and could make a very good decision if the scenario arose.

I don't think we would go out and drop 6 million on a new coach but I also think we could if we wanted to and it was the right person.

All in all, I think our football program is positioned very well for the forseeable future. What Mullen has done here and is doing is building a dynasty and he has built a strong foundation. This is why I don't think he leaves anytime soon for some flash-in-the-pan job opening. I think one day down the road he goes to a Penn State/Notre Dame type program or he becomes our Bowden, staying for 20-30 years and building a blue-blood dynasty here.

Either way....what he has done for MSU's football program is second to none.



We have 2 of our top 7 posts start out with "What if Mullen does leave". I bet there's no post on any Bama, Auburn, or Georgia message board that wants to discuss "what if our coach leaves".

Until our fans can have the same attitude, we will be easy prey for the media. Can we please not post this crap...even if you put "hypothetical" or "I don't believe he will" in your subject line.

Mullen ain't going anywhere besides the Citrus Bowl this new years.
