Croom is widely considered the worst coach in our history. No one can argue that Croom inherited a terrible recruiting class from Jackie and overall the program was probably at it's lowest point. Mullen inherited the best recruiting class of the last decade and a roster that had multiple NFL draft picks and a QB that fit his offense extremely well.

If he ends the season with a 14-26 SEC record, how does he keep his job? He will have achieved a .8 SEC game win per season improvement from the worst coach in our history, while OM fielded two of the worst bear teams of all time, Ky was terrible, worst AU team in 50 years, a terrible UPig program, and we got UT with Dooley. That is my biggest issue - he should be doing more. Being better than Croom really doesn't do much for me.
