Scott Frost or Dan Mullen??

[UTVolunteer247]

If you had to choose between these two, who would your pick be and why?

 

[jakez4ut]

Frost.

 

[bcartervol98]

Frost hands down. Dude is gonna crush it somewhere.

I think Mullen is a very good football coach but I think Frost is one of the next big superstar guys.

Frost will jump at the Nebraska job asap, so I'll say mullen. He's done more with less in the big boy league for a while now

 

[JMSqb11]

Mullen.

 

[JoAllan]

Frost

Somewhat unproven, but huge upside and certainly an improvement over Butch.

Mullen would be a clean safe hire...... But I'm not sold he can take Tennessee to the next level......frost may not either but there certainly is the chance he could be a huge hire.

 

[dduncan4163]

Frost, but I'd still take Mullen

 

[dduncan4163]

Frost could be the next big thing in CFB. I hope we get him.

Frost

Mullen. Done wonders with what he’s had in Starkville, would have better resources at UT IMO. But Frost is 2nd on my list. Both are flight risks to other schools, however (FL and Neb.), respectively.

 

[smokey90]

Don't we have to let Florida pick first? Jk

 

[pcolavol2]

Frost but would take Mullen over many others.

 

[TheDeeble]

We need to get this hire right. I feel like with Mullen we'd still be finishing second or 3rd in the East.

Based on what exactly?

 

[The Tall Gguy]

We do not need to hire another up and comer now.

 

[TCVOLS]

Mullen. He has the chops. We just had "the next big thing". I want proven track record at this level.

 

[volsfan125]

Kelly but if we can't get him I would take Kelly III (Frost) over Urban Jr (Mullen)

 

[benzod]

What can Mullen do with better physical talented players? Can Frosts upswing carry into the SEC?

Slight edge, Mullen
Actually, I wouldn’t be totally upset with either

 

[HuntsVol_AL]

I think that Mullen has the resources at UT to eventually maintain above .500 SEC record. But I don't think that we can reasonably expect him to suddenly become a great coach. He really disappointed with poor coaching and game management last evening in the loss to Alabama.

I would definitely take Frost ahead of Mullen. He's riskier... he has more downside but he has tons more upside. And he'd probably be cheaper.

 

[Cartervol]

I've have to take Mullen. He's can develop QB's and is familiar with what it takes to win in this league.. Experience trumps youth in this case IMO. You'd have to think Nebraska would be the favorite to land Frost. Who knows though. Would take either. Be a instant upgrade.

 

[volunteernation16]

Frost would give us something to be optimistic about. Dan Mullen is a boring choice imo

 

[jayisavol]

Not sure about cheaper we would need to outbid Nebraska significantly but I do believe he is the first name on our list.

His proven track record is under .500 in the SEC. It's under .150 against ranked teams. If proven means that he has improved the team, Frost improved his team much more substantially and much faster.

Mullen.

Has had success already as an SEC HC
