Would still take Frost over Mullen IMO. Just watched the highlights of the first half and Frost drew up some really creative redzone plays that worked for TDs. 31-13 UCF now.

Mullen might have more experience and I know we haven’t seen Mullen’s true ceiling yet, but I still think Frost is a future superstar and I’d love to get him.

This is where I am too. Maybe over Gruden. Neither are likely to happen

If UAB upsets Florida Bill Clark will get added to the VN hotboard

(I do think he's a really good coach and if UAB hadn't lost those 2 years he would probably be at a P5 school now)

Clark just got an extension and raise 2 weeks ago, and while I love the guy and am glad to have him here in Birmingham, Tennessee should still do much better than that with this hire.

Lol.

Now that most people seem to have cooled off, I feel like this is a post I have to make.

A lot of people here think I'm a troll, and honestly I understand. I've posted a lot of information this week and we've been burned here far too many times to count. When I made my initial post about the Tampa meeting I was scared. I was told information by a business associate who happened to be on the BOT, and wanted to share it. I was afraid it could be traced back to that person, or possibly ruin business relations with the company I work for. I eventually decided to go ahead and post the info, and thankfully all seemed to go well. Not only was it well received, but parts of it were corroborated by national media that day.

Following that post I heard absolutely nothing for 2 days. No new info came my way except for a text comfirming the deal was done. Fast forward to last night when I was suddenly being given info from multiple directions. Two people who I do not work particularly close with but trust gave me the majority of the info I posted today.

Honestly, I believe that everything I posted Tuesday and Wednesday was factual, and I'm mostly sure that what I posted today was as well. After seeing some of the reaction and thinking back on the conversations I had last night, I at least think there's a possibility I'm now being used. If my BOT contact or the AD realized that I leaked the information they gave me and that it received a lot of traction both here and elsewhere, It may have been decided to use me as a pawn. It's possible that I was purposely fed information last night. For what purpose I am not sure.

If this is the case then I am truly sorry. I genuinely hope that this is not what has happened, but if it is then I would never forgive myself for falling for that. I know that I would be crucified here, but just know that I would be twice as hard on myself. In light of that possibility you will not be receiving any more info from me and I won't post beyond today. There's no way I could trust anything I'm told at this point. It may be paranoia, but it's how I feel. If I've been found out then I also feel lile it would be best if I stop posting for personal and business interests.

If Gruden does end up being announced then I'll gladly come back and celebrate with you all. My hope is that everything I've been told is on the up and up.

Here's what I think is the best selling point for Mullen: he's the only candidate on the board that, if we hire him, will simultaneously have better players to work with while also facing lesser competition on a week to week basis.

There are plenty of other reasons in addition but that really stands out to me.

Agree with this.
I think he would virtually guarantee good QB play. I also think he could get us to Atlanta at least 1/3 of the time. And if you get to Atlanta with the kind of QB play he could bring, anything could happen.

Ok so still a ton of game to play but how do we rank Miss St talent vs Arkansas? Why should I not see this Arkansas drive as more reason to be meh about Mullen.

Any news of a presser today?




Honestly though, hope I am not shunned for bringing false information with full disclosure that it might not be legit yesterday.

This was ruled a TD? How can you drop it going to the ground and it count?

Agreed, just pointing out VNs love for the coach of the upset of the week, especially when it's over a rival.
