Yep and he’s still gonna have to beat those teams at Tennessee. And Bama twice for a championship. So this post makes me want him even less.

He's at a school in the middle of nowhere with the worst facilities in the league. He's practically making chicken salad out of chicken ****

I would like to be the first to officially congratulate Dan Mullen on his 5th place finish in the SEC West. Great program building in year 9. #HailState

The guy is 8-4 in the toughest division of the toughest conference in the nation, working with the team with the least resources in the conference, after arguably the best QB in the conference goes down.

I'll take him in a minute.

Common sense and logic is not welcome in this thread dude.

I hear ya. The truth is, though, there are really few guarantees, if any. The Bielema (sp?) hire comes to mind at Arkansas. That seemed like a great hire at the time, and look how it turned out. Not so good. Georgia fired Richt, and he now has Miami in the playoff. I like Frost and Campbell, but they're both risks. The only almost guarantees are probably Patterson and Peterson, but will they come? People were high on Fuente, but since he's lost a couple games people have cooled off on him.

Mullen is probably the safest hire with the highest floor. Who knows where his ceiling would be at UT?

Well with the reports of some on here that we’re willing to go as high as 10-12mil/year for the right coach I see no reason to make a risky hire. Money talks and some big time coach would take that money. So I say go to every power 5 coach that has won a National championship or at least conference championship and make them say no.

Sometimes you have to look at a coaches pedigree. Mullen was under urban meyer at bowling green,utah and florida.

That 26-30 record includes 30 games against Auburn, Alabama and LSU

Don’t you know that doesn’t matter Carl. According to some on here, 14-24 in the SECe (Jones’ record) is the same as 26-30 in the West. They just gotta stick to that narrative and whatnot.

I don't completely disagree. But, what if LSU had that mindset before Saban, Clemson before Dabo, FSU before Jimbo, Oklahoma before Stoops, or LSU before Les Miles?

Again, what bothers me is there was no backup plan when the starting quarterback went down. If you're competing in football against teams like we have in the SEC you have to have someone there who has had some reps to make a game work when you have a key player out. That is poor planning and we have seen that before at Tennessee. It is good that they tried to make a comeback, but at the end of the day they still lost to an inferior team. And what makes it worse is that if they had had better coaching and planning then they wouldn't have had to.

You no doubt was a huge CBJ supporter, cause that was an answer we heard over and over

You, no doubt, were*** a huge CBJ supporter.

I was, yes.... Just like every other UT fan. Mine ended after Florida in 2015. When did yours?

Don't be mad when Mullen is announced as head coach next week. I'm kidding, of course, I enjoy pissing people off with the Dan Mullen talk.

Mullen doesnt deserve anywhere close to 10 million.

Exactly. If you have a running QB like Fitzgerald you are likely to have to play your backup at some point because of injury
